    One of the best and simplest ways to activate your relaxation response is to slow your breathing right down. Aim for around six breaths per minute. This is the sweet spot where your breathing rate aligns with other rhythms in the body. The body’s relaxation response is part of the parasympathetic nervous system — a network of nerve fibres that connects and regulates organs throughout the body. Activating this system helps you to rest and digest, repair and restore, renew, recharge and reset. To find out more tune into Teresa from Mental Health Ireland.

    The suggestion is that 2026 could be the year you spend more time doing what you want. That the new year might be the moment we commit to giving more of our finite hours to what we genuinely enjoy — to what seizes our interest and makes us feel vividly alive. That this could be the year you stop trying quite so hard to turn yourself into a better person, and focus instead on leading a more absorbing life.

The teacher says it’s physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human — even though it’s huge, its throat is very small. The boy says, “But a whale swallowed Jonah.” The teacher says, “That didn’t happen — a whale can’t swallow a human.” The boy says, “Well, when I get to heaven, I’ll ask Jonah.” The teacher says, “But what if he went to hell?” And the boy says, “You ask him.” To find out more, tune into hear Teresa from Mental Health Ireland.

    The time we have at our disposal each day is elastic, Proust claimed. It sounds an odd remark. Surely we have precisely 24 hours, no more and no less. Even the occasional leap second — introduced to keep calendars accurate — hardly alters the fixed time we have each day on Earth. To find out more, tune into hear Teresa from Mental Health Ireland.
