Hi Card You don’t need to buy it.it’s free via the app. You only need the “plus” subscription version if you want the premium content and full meditation courses or want to be able to fast forward through I find more than enough in the free version. No need to run off and sign up. There’s so many good “sleep” ones. I can barely get through them. Sarah Blonden is great. Some mornings if I was a bit riled up I would put on a 10 minute meditation ( not a sleep one) and do it before work ( or even in the drive) I would find a lot of it help just re-centre me and my emotions My H was the same, the rushing around huffing and puffing and over functioning and stressing like a pressure cooker running around doing everything to avoid their issues. Just this weekend I was unwell and on the couch on Sunday and he came by to help S with something but before he left he ran around like a headless chook doing such unnecessary jobs like vacuuming the car and other household chores that weren’t even urgent. In the past I would have said something I didn’t I could see he was sort of worked up and running around a bit erratic busying himself. Eventually he decided to take himself off to the gym.Same thing today when I briefly crossed paths he seemed a bit erratic and agitated and rushing around doing stuff. Almost like he has a checklist. Anyway I don’t think there’s much we can do. I guess it’s them keeping busy to avoid thinking or emotions. I just thought “yay I didn’t have to do that job then”. I don’t think anyone can explain it to us. The pressure cooker is good. All these thoughts and emotions just completely bubbling away and making them act a bit erratic.my H seems to stem alot from his work stress. Our whole situation I think really was because of work stress. But I can’t help him sort his work life out. He needs to figure that out on his own. Same with your W whatever is the root of her stress she needs to figure it out alone. If we try and fix it for them they won’t fix it properly it would be a half attempt and we will be right back here again. I’m guessing your W would have alot to do with her medical issues and any possible depression. May I ask I can’t remember but was she diagnosed with MS before S was born or after? Is she bonding ok with him? Just wondering if she’s blaming him in any way for her down feelings. Depression makes you do some wierd stuff and blame some strange things for it
Anyway enjoy the gym and your mate. Sounds like the next few days will be great.
