Missed any of the short videos I post? Relax, as I post all of them here on the Pain & Self Management YouTube Channel youtube.com/@paintoolkit... #InspireSelfMgt

Good morning @drkarenmarshall.bsky.social & @jonnybranney.bsky.social Appreciate you guys sharing Have an excellent day Pete

@wesstreeting.bsky.social Good morning Wes Streeting Just watch a piece on BBC Breakfast showing a Hospital rammed, with Patients on trolleys and wheelchairs. When is the penny going to drop, when OUR NHS & Social Care promoted ‘Supported Self Management’ to Patients & by Healthcare Providers?

We can build walls or we can be more ambitious — and build something better, stronger, and more just.

Spot on.

New Supported Self Management Website is nearly ready. Just needs a few tweaks #InspireSelfMgt

Pete & Keith Meldrum reflect on last Fridays nights Pain Toolkit in Conversation and answer two more of your questions: Video recording www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-We... Audio soundcloud.com/paintoolkitg... #InspireSelfMgt

Yes, there is a 12 Step Program called Chronic Pain Anonymous chronicpainanonymous.org

@matthew-wright.bsky.social Lovely to chat this morning about the planned King's visit to the US. Here's a link to the petition i mentioned on air: Call off the King’s visit to the US for the 250th anniversary of America's independence | 38 Degrees share.google/n4NQZdnDga5m...

The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

Message me your experiences #InspireSelfMgt

Shoutout to Healthcare Providers The medical model healthcare workers are trained in, isn’t that useful for people living with persistent pain Supported Self Management works and the benefits are… - Less appointments - both GP & Hospital - Less medication usage. - Fewer work days lost

Tell me and others…How has Coaching Supported Self Management supported you and your patients? #InspireSelfMgt #prehab #selfmgtliving #smartselfmgt #paintoolkitacademy

@matthew-wright.bsky.social Morning Matthew Well, that was a waste of time wasn’t it. The money, time and resources we wasted on the orange fella last year. Straight out of the 1930’s playbook isn’t it.

I think as trump continues to descent into even crazier depths, then we'll move closer to Europe, and further away from trumps america. This may have an effect on Scotland going for a 2nd referendum.

From Nuuk, Greenland:

What the Supported Self Management World still needs to work on…Providing Supported Self Mgt Programmes/courses/workshops in and for people - different languages - learning materials in different languages and concepts - with vision or hearing problems - mental health, - learning difficulties

What with all the various bugs doing the rounds, I’m surprised people are not wearing masks 😷 to protect themselves and others. Quick guide below for men

@zackpolanski.bsky.social Will the Greens be supporting Supported Self Management for people living with long term health conditions? Saving the anguish of patients, let alone the high cost of healthcare. - Less appts - both GP & Hospital - Less medication usage. - Fewer work days lost

Theme for next Friday nights ‘In Conversation’ will be…’Making a Difference in 2026’ Well we always start off with a theme but always amazes me how we get into Supported Self Management conversations. #InspireSelfMgt

Maria from London told me…“Registering for the course reminded me of ‘slow traveling.’ I could dip in and out of the course when I wanted to. I could ask questions to others like me who now self manage pain and healthcare professionals who work in pain management.

“During the Brexit referendum, supporters of staying in the EU who warned of severe consequences if Britain left were accused of running a “Project Fear” campaign of bogus claims. The survey found that most voters now believe the grim forecasts were right” www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Wonder no longer, I will be seeing for the first time, the NEW Supported Self Management website next Monday 😀 #selfmgtliving #prehab #cancerselfmgt #livingwellskillz #smartselfmgt

Yes, there is Supported Self Management Virtual Reality (VR) Platform and yes, it’s FREE to visit and use www.spatial.io/s/Selfmgt-To... No need for a VR Headset (but better experience if you have one) click on the link with your phone/laptop/computer, create an avatar and off you go. #Inspire

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Kieron the Van Driver for Prime Minister What a LEGEND ‼️ #BrexitRedTap

Trump is a threat to everyone European nations must now come together and speak with one voice like never before.

It’s still important to eat, even if you don’t feel well. Here, our dietitians explain the importance of nutrition during cancer treatment and tips for managing a low appetite: spr.ly/63325CXBzN #OncSky #EndCancer

@matthew-wright.bsky.social I used to live just around the corner of the Matchless factory in Woolwich, when I was a kid. I loved standing outside watching the guys putting the bikes together. Think it’s where my interest for bikes started.

Apparently I am the new President of Venezuela. Here if you need any oil or gold.

So who’s he got next in his sights who has oil or general assets❓ - Greenland 🇬🇱 - Canada 🇨🇦 - Falkland Islands 🇫🇰 - Mexico 🇲🇽 ❓ ❓

If you’re not interested Supported Self Management… #InspireSelfMgt

Same goes for us, living with pain and long term health issues #InspireSelfMgt

The 3 stages of life: wanting stuff, accumulating stuff, getting rid of stuff 🙃🤣😂

Good morning Lesley and thank you for sharing @lesleysmith.bsky.social Can you help me go upstream to the medical schools to the sort this problem out and where the problem is. My colleague @keithmeldrum.bsky.social in Canada has gone upstream to help fix the problem #InspireSelfMgt

I posted this Poll 1st January 6yrs ago. Going by recent conversations with healthcare providers, nothing has really changed. What’s your opinion❓ More importantly, when is the healthcare community going to do something about it❓ #InspireSelfMgt @keithmeldrum.bsky.social

First visit to the Live Fit Gym of 2026 #InspireSelfMgt

Seen this @matthew-wright.bsky.social ?

The monks walking for peace is bigger than people think. They normally make this walk in other countries. This year, they decided to walk from Texas to DC- through areas historically relevant in the civil rights movement. They are essentially walking the 1961 Freedom Riders route. 🫶🕊️

The Walk for Peace monks have reached Georgia State line.

Monks walk for peace in the US. They do that in countries that are in dire need of peace. Now they're here, because America is a hot mess right now.

The monks on the Walk For Peace are now certainly drawing the crowds. Americans I believe are craving peace. 🖖

My goal in 2025 was to walk more and I did. 2024 - 2.4km 2025 - 3.6km #InspireSelfMgt

Just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for all your Birthday Wishes I’ve had a nice day. Wishing all my friends a Happy & Healthy 2026 #InspireSelfMgt
