Love #bookreviews: '... perfect resource for anyone considering #therapy for themselves or their loved ones, guiding them through the process. I believe it is also a valuable resource for those studying therapy & working in fields such as #coaching .' #customerReviews" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">amazon.co.uk/dp/1786784807#…

@leonard_mcclane And there is a chapter, approved by the BACP, in my book, The Essential Companion to Talking Therapy, that guides users of therapy & budding therapists through what unethical therapy is and what to do if faced with that. guardianbookshop.com/the-essential-…

This piece on @KarinBlak's new book is interesting. In my #TheYippeeKiYayPrinciple there's a chapter discussing pitfalls and power of therapy; how in the same way jurisprudence impacts law the "human element" of therapy is its biggest hindrance AND help. theguardian.com/society/2024/n…

So my wife @KarinBlak was interviewed in The Guardian about unethical practices in counselling & therapy. Her book 'The Essential Companion to Talking #Therapy' has more of her experiences with unethical therapists - available in The Guardian's bookshop theguardian.com/society/2024/n…

It's amazing what my thoughts drum up when I lie awake at night. Analysing the day's events is a reliable, time-consuming and annoying tendency and my friend's 60th birthday party was no exception. #womenover50 @JeffOllerton #WomenEmpowerment karink-blak.medium.com/worthless-at-6…

@OsunbaD46991 Thank you. Amazing content too. 😉

@KarinBlak Amazing book cover design

I cannot believe this was three years ago. Look at the inflorescent on that orchid! it was huge and lasted forever. The book is still available from your favourite online bookseller. #BookRecommendation #readers #MentalHealthMatters

It is easy to let a good thing go unless you have a solid grip on it. It appears that I didn't. Life got in the way of my writing career & I lost the momentum. But to me, writing is so much more than just a career. #WritingCommunity @JeffOllerton medium.com/p/25989aa26913

I was flattered today when my writing in 'Birds & Flowers: An Intimate 50 Million Year Relationship' was described using a Chinese saying that translates as 'like a comb easily going through silky long hair'! #birds #botany #pollinators @pelagicpublish @hughbrazier @KarinBlak

Looking forward to running my workshop, Connecting Mindfully with Nature, at the May it Bee conference which focuses on the 17 #SDGs My focus is the Inner Development Goals #IDGs, and offering skills training to develop a deeper connection with nature. mayitbee.org

@SKGuna_writer I drank coffee which I should have done, I got a massive headache but apart from that, my Thursday was pretty good. Thanks for asking. 😊

@KarinBlak Thank you, Karin. I was pretty excited to head out yesterday as it was another step towards my recovery. I had a lovely and exhausting day. It was truly epic. I hope you had a wonderful Thursday as well. 🫶🏾

Good Morning, Twitter X Fam! It's Thursday! Let's go! 🎉 This is your daily reminder to do something today that makes you feel special, happy, and, most importantly, alive. 🫶🏾 P.S. I clocked in 7.5 hours of sleep. It was a decent sleep, but I did have some pretty stressful dreams; one of them involved me being chased by a flying cockroach. The horror! Still, I'm not going to let it affect my day. I'm going out to meet my friends soon. I'll catch up with you wonderful people when I get back. See you soon! 😊 That said, I hope everyone has a beautiful day. Be kind. Spread love. The world and the people around you need it. ❤️ #ThursdayMorning #ThursdayMotivation #ThursdayMotivations #ThursdayVibe #ThursdayVibes #ThursdayThought #ThursdayThoughts #ThursdayMood #ThursdayFeeling #Thursday #HappyThursday #Weekday #WeekdayVibe #WeekdayVibes #HappyDay #StayPositive #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #KeepSmiling #KeepOnSmiling #KeepGoing #YouGotThis #YGT

@prize_novel I'll be submitting once my novel has been returned by the editor, and I've worked with her feedback. X

My #shitlawn of the day, spotted in Fulham. Note the fake stripes and even the steps are 'grassed', a lovely finishing touch @Shitlawns
