If it’s Thursday then it must be time for my weekly round-up of tips for better mental health! Each week I share a handful of things I’ve come across that I find interesting, intriguing and inspirational, plus I tell you about anything interesting that’s coming up on my weekly podcast, Let’s Talk About Mental Health, or just generally in terms of my work. So… let’s talk!

Hello Talkers! 👋🗣😃
I have COVID.
If you follow me on Instagram @itsjeremygodwin then you’ve possibly seen my tales of woe in my stories over the past few days, but the short version is this: after 3+ years of being a NOVID (never had it), I caught it from my partner who picked it up from work. My verdict? Horrible. 0 out of 10, would not recommend! Aches, pains, fever, brain fog and more, and I’ve had it quite severely for a few days now although it seems to be settling into something a touch more tolerable now (at least I don’t feel like my body is on fire anymore, so that’s progress).
So here’s my point: when you need to rest, then rest. Which is what I’m doing. I’ve cut my work commitments bck to the bare minimum (this newsletter and my weekly episode), and apart from that it’s a hot date with my couch and some soup so I can look after myself.
I’d love your perspective: what do you do to look after yourself when you’re unwell? Let me know in the comments at the end of this newsletter. 🙂
Now, without any further ado… greetings and salutations, and a very warm welcome to another newsletter. I hope you enjoy my quick snapshot of my favourite things this week — hopefully at least one of them will make you smile/feel inspired. Have a fantastic week!
Jeremy 🙂
