Gratitude practice doesn’t work
Some people swear by it. And possibly it works for them, I don’t know. There were even some research stating that it actually does work. I don’t know how psychological research of this kind can be done without taking into consideration people values, beliefs, life circumstances and life experience. I did try and at first […]

Monitoring (and I don’t mind CCTV)
This thing that I’m going to talk about here again should, from technical point of view, have it’s own tag on my blog, but it’s the thing that I don’t want to talk about too openly so I didn’t create one. I still have some readers so possibly they remember how I believed that I […]

Dementia treatment dream
Yesterday evening I decided that I shouldn’t be sleeping on the sofa too often and went to the spare bedroom. I only slept around 9h and woke up with a headache, one that I usually get when I’m about to have a cold. I got a bit annoyed, after all this time I was off […]
