I’m starting to read John Milton’s Paradise Lost - weekly, on substack, for free. If you can’t imagine ever reading it, this could be for you. Small chunks, big thinking open.substack.com/pub/reader…

Lovely Jane. It reminds me of my early days in Primary Care when the strongest and most enduring countertransference was loneliness. So many patients were generally lonely and lacking meaningful connection.

Reading is good for you. Last week was #InternationalStressAwarenessWeek. Research has shown that #reading is more effective at reducing stress than sipping tea! Now, imagine reading AND sipping tea - that combination must do the mind wonders. #Leicestershire #SharedReading
