Tried all the things to calm your frantic mind but you're still not fixed? Are you earnestly on the lookout for the next tool, technique, strategy or program to be a less f*cked-up human?

Stop! There's nothing you need to do. 

I'm doggy-sitting for this one and you'll hear some considerable tail-thumps. If you're ok with that, then...

Come and explore: 

  • Why a tool, technique or strategy looks really compelling and we keep going back for more
  • How they look like they work...sometimes...but this is an illusion 
  • If not a tool or technique, how do we find freedom from worry, anxiety, overwhelm and all of that horrid-feeling humanness? 
  • Metaphors this week include burnt pizzas and sacrificing goats
