One thing I’ve learned is you have to do it in phases and it takes a couple of years to really click. You just have to keep reminding yourself gently when it comes up. ---

So phases is like 5 minutes to 10 minutes to 30 minutes and so on. I set a timer. For exercise I’m still at 15 minutes. I look at this YouTube named Caroline Jordan. I think you’ll like her exercises. ---

Things that improve the quality of my life are people like my mum, daughter, ex husband, friend. When they are unavailable I turn to this forum. Otherwise I listen to Spotify, watch nature programmes, go walking and eat good food! ---
