How to build powerful microhabits for your wellbeing – and keep them | New Scientist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Like many people, I have the intention of practising self-care. I know that meditating each day will help break me out of stressful thought spirals, but it has never become a part of my regular routine. With tight deadlines and family commitments, there just doesn’t seem to be the time. Slow breathing can calm the mind without any need for mindfulness A new book – Micropractice: a science-backed approach for calm, clarity and joy in 30 seconds or less by US psychologist Eli Susman – might just o

Within a couple of weeks – sometimes less, depending on how much time I have to spend on the London Underground – I become the same irritable and frustrated person that I always was. A

“Mischa’s parents are hosting their daughter’s engagement party at their country mansion. As she makes a toast, her wine glass slips from her hand to reveal an object embedded in the stem – a tiny memory card. The discovery unravels a decades-old corruption scandal involving her own family, forcing her to choose between justice and loyalty.” Not bad, I suppose. I have just asked ChatGPT to create a series of concepts for a movie, based on the creative writing prompt “Her face went still as her e
