The Wellbeing Website is going to be quiet for a while. I’m not going anywhere, just working on some new things and will be back soon. It will be great to connect again.

I've updated my guide to the Kindle range to include the new models they've just released. Is there anything here for you?

I have a post that goes into a lot more detail: www.thewellbeingwebsite.com/blog/state-s...

Create a strategy - Think about what you’re going to do to change things. What can you start doing every day to make changes. Put it on paper.

I really hope that helps.

Focus on your story - How do you see yourself in the world? Is it positively, or negatively. We forget we’re the authors of our own stories. That we can change them.

Settle your state - Before we do anything, we need to find calm. Help the body and mind settle down. Give yourself space to start your recovery.

If you’re not feeling good. If something has happened and you need to bounce back, there are three important steps you can consider. I’ll explain them in this thread.

I know that feeling.

This is how we used to advertise alcohol. In future, will we look back and see we made the same mistake with social media?

(To be very clear, this is a historical advert that does not reflect modern medical advice)

A black bird stands on some cracked concrete, looking upwards at camera. The angle, its stance and its plumage - white eyes are the only let-up from the black - makes the bird look thoroughly pissed off

The Blackbird of Annoyance has replaced the Bluebird of Happiness in my life

Force, fear or invitation — The Wellbeing Website This post explores how we keep being influenced, by force, fear or invitation. We'll take a close look at what's happening and then explore how you could set the right example.

A close look at how we can be influenced, by force, fear or invitation.

I think this is so important. The pressure, threats and attempts to mislead others are clearly damaging people’s mental health and wellbeing, both online and in the real world.

“A man should forget his anger before he goes to sleep” - Mahatma Gandhi

That sleepless night won’t have any effect on the person or thing you’re mad at. It will have an effect on you though.

A book that really changed things for me was Autopilot, by Andrew Smart. He explains how doing nothing, like simply watching clouds, helps the mind join the dots behind the scenes. Gives us more chance of suddenly getting a great idea.

"We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are" - Anaïs Nin

Keep those positive memories close. Remind yourself of the good times. Then notice how you feel afterwards.

“A wealth of information creates a poverty of attention” - Herbert Simon

Who do you listen to? More importantly, who makes you change direction?

“It’s not how much you have that makes people look up to you, it’s who you are” - Elvis Presley

Always make time for mediation. Just focus on how you’ll feel afterwards.

Took part in a very interesting neurological study this week. Three hours of unpleasant electric shocks in my feet though. I really hope this can help other people.

Things I’ve found and what’s on my radar:

Pondering something that came to me. We’re all fighting over reality. Expect some content on that soon.

Really enjoyed listing to Bernie Sanders on the Joe Rogan Experience. This is how political discussion should be done.

Compleltely agree.

You should have a listen to live version on the deluxe My Songs (from Paris). A great new riff from Dominic Miller.

Just take a take a second to think about the story you tell yourself. Then think about how you could change it.

"The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why" - Mark Twain
