Some words from Nick Cave for those walking the agonising path of slowly losing a loved one…

On Friday we will be talking about productivity # PositiviTEA. As an EP, whatever work context (LA, independent or a mix) one of the challenges that we face is how to managing competing work demands. We get good at juggling plates, but it’s tricky. Join us to talk about this. #edpsychs More info⬇️

That quote was taken from the film ‘20,000 Days on Earth’ and was, for me, a timely jolt of inspiration that helped me to get my book over the line. Here is the spine-tingling final scene, with subtitles, also demonstrating Cave’s longevity and transformations over the years. #edpsychs

Continuing a theme… How are you using your own gifted days? What flame are you nurturing? #edpsychs

A “clear and present danger” if ever I saw one. These toxic misogyny-spreaders are dangerous. #edpsychs

What do you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? putyourownoxygenmaskonfirst.com/2019/01/17/t... Thanks to @maxpurpose.bsky.social for bringing this to my attention.

I’ve created a personal BlueSky account for posts that are my voice (or that are cat/music/football/social/etc-related) rather than that of the company. If you’d like to connect in person, my handle is @mark-adams.bsky.social.

To rekindle the spirit and wash away the challenges of life, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds remain a powerful, emotive & life-affirming force, especially when we could be all together as a family. Birmingham last night 👌🙏💥✊🏻🤯

This was such an interesting and diverse conversation with Ella from The Metro. We talked social norms, bodily autonomy, adults engaging in emotional regulation, and lessons that last a lifetime. metro.co.uk/2024/10/22/i... #edpsychs #edusky

Excellent podcast re infant feeding. Cathy’s passion, experience, humanness & wisdom shines through. With my psychologist’s ears, there is so much in here re actions that are supportive of the development of the attachment bond, right from the off. #infantfeeding #breastfeeding #attachment #edpsychs

Feeling delighted & humbled that an article I wrote on the ENABLE SF-coaching model appears in this book. I'm flabbergasted. The book looks like a helpful summary of coaching research & practice over a 15-yr period. #coaching #coachingpsychology #solutionfocused #enable #edpsychs amzn.to/4dLXJRP

@viola-jane.bsky.social One of those memory things just popped up on Facebook and I thought of you following our exchange this morning - 10 years ago I bought a record player, and my first (well, second time around) vinyl to go with it. What an album.

BLOG ARTICLE - When Clouds Descend: Coping with Grief & Depression. An exploration of grief, loss and strategies that helped to move the emotional needle. See bit.ly/4djvbPr #coping #grief #loss #psychology #wellbeing #multiplesclerosis #edpsychs @edpsy.bsky.social @edpsyched.bsky.social

Really enjoyed the last session i attended with @fi-coley.bsky.social and Dr Cathy Atkinson re Motivational Interviewing. More details re Friday’s below.

“Rote learning of the past” is an “outdated mode of teaching”. Sadly, it is very common in the present, too. In a former life I taught science in SE London, and found practicals (with sound bhvr mgmt) to be engaging for even those harder-to-reach students. More please.

www.edpsyched.co.uk/blog/we-don-... I’m late to the party with this blog article, but this resonates so much with my daily experience. It has been, and remains, heartbreaking to watch this gradual decay of our schools’ ability to provide, powerfully articulated here. Bravo. #edpsychs
