So AnnaMarie, reread what Oliver wrote… switch off the news and do other things to distract yourself and find your joy. That’ll fuel your fighting power when you have joy to defend. Being angry only makes a physical and mental difference to you and probably your family. That’s not helping anyone. Please don’t think I’m scolding you, but, my husband is often on his phone for what seems like 24/7 and I have to try to distract him with walks in the countryside otherwise he’s a right pain in the doodah to live with. Completely obsessed with politics both here in the UK and USA.

I admit we have entered a very dodgy era, and I don’t want to ignore it because it’s definitely important to be informed of the world as it changes. We have to keep a balance. Take care 🕊️🕊️🕊️

I hear you! I do ride my bike, walk, do yoga and Pilates, spend time with friends and family, then, I pick up my phone, see the latest b s from that orange Mussolini and I see red! I often have to put that phone right back down. It really has a negative effect on my good moods. I have always been an easy going happy person. This administration changes that for me every single day and you are right, we have to pace ourselves with it!
