Easing the Sunday Scaries

10/3/24

I almost renamed this newsletter this morning. I spent yesterday on the moors, doing a basic map reading and navigation course. It was bleak up there for a couple of hours, low cloud obscuring vision, high winds making it difficult (and very cold) to stand still. Then, the weather just changed and it turned into a glorious spring afternoon in the sunshine. I’m determined to spend more time outdoors so I think I would rename this “I talk to the trees” but, as wonderful as I find trees, I need to be working with wider social justice issues than just environment (although that is a fundamental issue). So whilst this list is still small, please forgive me practising in public and please come along for the ride as I delve into how any of this is going to work

What I'm listening to

I think I heard it on a Cal Newport podcast about going out without other people's thoughts in your ears so I've been off my podcast listening for a couple of weeks. Waiting in the car for teenagers, though I did discover Nao

What I'm thinking

Can you learn to talk to the trees? Are they the slightest bit interested in communicating with us? Are we ready to hear what they might have to say?

Easing the Sunday Scaries Sunday 6th October Content notice: I talk about grief and bereavement this week. Skip this email if you need to. Come back on a better day or I'll speak to you next week. x And now it's October. 50% of the marketing emails in my inbox are trying to get me ready for Christmas or make plans for a great 2025.

I went for a long walk this morning and have committed to a month of showing up on social media and saying stuff (it's called the Garbage Post challenge - you have to post 100 times within 30 days) so I thought I would reappear here too.

Easing the Sunday Scaries - 17/3/24

Easing the Sunday Scaries Sunday 17/3/24 For the first time in a long time, I don't have the Sunday Scaries. I've been reading a lot and I think I've finally worked out how to align the day job with my mission of working in social justice. It's super early days but I'm going to check in with some colleagues, see if they think my idea has legs and maybe create a bit of squad around my idea. You know I'm a huge Cal Newport fan and he has, since "So Good They Can't Ignore You"*, urged his...
