Huge thanks to all the speakers and to everyone who joined us to make Lou’s memorial so special and meaningful. It was a heartfelt, poignant and deeply moving occasion, and also healing. Here is a recording: vimeo.com/538583392 💚🐰💚 @ActAuntie @myACBS #365daysofcompassion

New Episode - it's a warm hug from the People Soup archives. A reissue of my chat with one of my favourite people, @ActAuntie - I found listening again to Lou to be an inspiration & an illustration of many of the skills that can be so useful for us humans. soundcloud.com/peoplesoup/re…

ACT Exceeds 600 Randomized Controlled Trials. That's right 600 - it's a number to celebrate! The 600 RCT milestone represents the culmination of more than 30 years of ACT research from this community. Read Steve Hayes' commentary on this milestone here: contextualscience.org/news/a…

Anger and rage in #Menopause can be frightening and debilitating. There is a whole load of context to this & I’ve summarised some of it in this blog bit.ly/3eujeLz I’m receiving messages from people saying it needs to be read by ALL (incl those not in peri/meno)

Just one of several nuggets of wisdom to be found in @nichooper7 new book ‘The Unbreakable Student’ - been lucky enough to have a sneak preview, and I must say that I’m finding it a fresh and invigorating read so far... 👏 📖
