It's time to let the podcast Anxiety My Friend die and start something new! Let's imagine better work places, better lifestyles, better communities...

Come with me and IMAGINE! Bring someone along too! It's going to be a place of hope, curiosity and science!

Neste Dia Mundial da Saúde Mental, despeço-me deste podcast. Mas está a nascer um novo! Muito em breve! Vem comigo e IMAGINA! O novo podcast chama-se imagina e vai trazer doses de esperança!

Cada dia é uma oportunidade de construir o mundo em que desejamos viver. Participar significa mais do que votar; significa envolvermo-nos de forma consciente, criativa e democrática. Juntos podemos transformar a nossa sociedade, na direção que acreditamos ser a mais justa e humana.

O mínimo que podes fazer:

1. Círculos lentos de tamanhos diferentes e movimentos variados com os pés. 

2. Senta-te, pousa levemente os pés nos chão e mexe os dedinhos, mexe os pés de um lado para o outro, tipo limpa pára-brisas.

3. Massagem e mobilidade - Massaja os tendões ao longo dos mesmos, mexe cada dedo.

4. Segura numa bola de ténis com os calcanhares, e faz pequenas elevações, tipo pontas de bailarina, segurando na bola… diverte-te com os teus pés!

Helen Hall - Infelizmente no episódio não falei do trabalho dela, mas é uma referência em termos de mobilidade saudável e inspirou o médico de família Dr Rangan Chatterjee a fazer foot wiping - raspar os pés no tapete:

In summary, if nothing else, try these things:

1. Gentle circles and varied movements with yout feet.
2. While sitting, put your feet on the ground gently, move your toes, and move your feet side to side, in a window wiper motion at the ankle.
3. Massage and mobility - While seated massage the tendons and move in all directions.
4. Do heel raises while holding a ball with your heels… and just have fun with your feet!

Correction: I did not throw away all my shoes immediately! What I meant was that as they broke, I replaced them with bigger, gentler shoes. A few died at good times and others at bad times LOL I remember the sole of my shoe dropping off as I walked down an avenue in Manhattan on a multi-day stopover between Georgetown Guyana and Lisbon. Luckily I had no trouble finding a shoe store! A bad ending was when the heel of my shoe snapped in half right after delivering a training session in Corroios, so I had to wobble my way out of the building. No handy stores around so I walked barefoot to the train station and from the station home.

• Helen Hall’s Instagram account - Sadly I did not mention her work, but do go check it out! It’s from her that both Rangan Chatterjee and I got the idea of foot wiping; a simple yet highly beneficial exercise:

Hoje com Telmo Pinto, presidente da Junta de Freguesia de Quarteira.

“Em vez de semeares as sementes da preocupação contigo mesmo ao esperares por isto ou por aquilo, ou desesperadamente desejar obter isto ou aquilo? Se fores sensato, juntarás os dois, nunca ter esperança sem um elemento de desespero, e nunca desesperar sem ter um elemento de esperança.” - Seneca
