@JMchangama Dear Jacob, I am trying to email Barnes and Noble 5th Avenue about doing an author talk and cannot find an email for them. I am an author and psychotherapist from UK travelling to New York in April. Can you let me know their email address please? Thank you! Philippa

On Friday last I fulfilled a long-held ambition to break a pot and mend it with gold - in the tradition of the Japanese art of kintsugi. I love the idea that owning our vulnerability makes us more beautiful! Here are my ideas and reflections:

@joannamoncrieff thank you. I also wonder since writing my toolkit for trauma book whether GPs might be helped by offering psycho education on trauma and practical mental health interventions. When giving talks those with trauma feel relief!

@JamesAALongman Just heard your interview on the Today Programme, loved the distinction between mental health and mental illness also the power of epigenetics to ignite what’s inherited. Might you be interested in my newly published book 20 Ways to Break Free from Trauma - a toolkit of hope.

@MarkLRuffalo Interesting post after just hearing James Longman being interviewed this morning 13 January on BBC Radio 4 about his new book on mental illness ‘The Inherited Mind’. He makes the point that mental health needs to be distinguished from mental illness and treated with respect.
