Unconditional universal basic income (UBI) is freedom It's the freedom to say NO
The freedom of voluntary work The freedom to learn new skills The freedom to
create The freedom to flee abuse and exploitation The freedom to escape and
recover from climate disasters The freedom to breathe again

Law doesn't deliver justice. Austerity, wage freezes, public service cuts
imposed by parliament. 300,000 Britons die each year awaiting hospital
appointment. 111,000 died last year in poverty; 128,000 died in fuel poverty,
including. 111,000 pensioners, leftfootforward.org/2024/11/what...
Whatever happened to the ‘rule of law’ in the UK?
Even if people can get access to the courts, at best they will get an
interpretation of law, not justice.

In the recent 24hrs the Taliban have shut down access to nursing and midwifery
training centres for female students. I literally cannot fathom the impact this
will have on the Afghan people in particular women. More here:

Women at training colleges across the country were told they are not allowed to
return to class.

'Enough. These few words are enough. If not these words, this breath. If not

I understand the well-meaning assurances of offering new clients “a safe
space..” However, at session 1, with no therapeutic relationship in place and no
shared understanding of what makes them comfortable in place, it’s simply not
something to promise. IMO It’s a misleading concept for practice.

Absolutely agree. The promise to meet people's needs is a problem in so many
ways, reduces curiosity and avoids the depth and discomfort of therapy. Safety
means different things and is dangerous when someone is in unsafe situation. How
can we help therapists to understand the nuances of safety?

there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I pour whiskey on him
and inhale cigarette smoke and the whores and the bartenders and the grocery
clerks never know that he's in there. - Charles Bukowski, Bluebird

With scarce my reason, with my fingers, with slow waters slow flooded, I fall to
the realm of forget-me-nots, to a mourning air that clings, to a forgotten room
in ruins, to a cluster of bitter love. - Pablo Neruda, Entrance Into Wood

It's easy to empathise with those we like & love. Empathy really is for those we
struggle to see, for those whose behaviours, beliefs & opinions leave us angry,
unsettled & dismayed. In
#therapy
& in
#politics
empathy is the way through. You don't have to agree, only to seek to understand.

Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s as unique as the people in the room. In
person-centred practice, there’s no ‘fixing’ because no one is broken. Hopefully
therapy offers a space for growth, understanding, & self-discovery. I’d love to
hear your thoughts as it unfolds. 🌿

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree If mankind perished utterly; And
Spring herself, when she woke at dawn, Would scarcely know that we were gone.

G'night, all, The heart asks pleasure first And then, excuse from pain- And
then, those little anodynes That deaden suffering; And then, to go to sleep; And
then, if it should be The will of its Inquisitor, The liberty to die. Emily
Dickinson, The Heart Asks Pleasure First

Research shows that if everyone in England adhered to a plant-based diet, over
1.2 million cases of T2 diabetes could be prevented, and the NHS could save over
£4.5 billion a year.

The last scud of day holds back for me, It flings my likeness after the rest and
true as any on the shadowed wilds, It coaxes me to the vapour and the dusk. Walt

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed.
A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie. An
unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight
enough. So finish the thing.
