Medication For Anxiety: Its Role In Your Mental Wellness Journey

Anxiety doesn't knock before entering your life. It arrives uninvited, transforming ordinary moments into overwhelming challenges and turning simple decisions into mountainous obstacles.

Anxiety disorders represent more than occasional worry—they constitute a persistent presence that can significantly impact daily functioning, relationships, and overall quality of life.

What to do if your Employer goes insolvent?

With the recent collapse of Jessops, Comet, HMV and Blockbuster, employees are finding themselves in a situation where they are having to assess their rights and entitlement.

Employee Rights

There is a difference between an employer being in liquidation and administration. If your employer is in liquidation, there is no continuing business and you will have no job. Where your employer is in administration, an administrator will be appointed and will be brought in to see if the business can be kept alive and whether a buyer can take over the whole of the business.

Offered the opportunity by Exeter Phoenix to take part in a new one-day workshop at the lively arts centre and write about it for The Exeter Daily , I agreed with alacrity. I signed up for 'Experimental Drawing' thinking it might give my drawing practice the kick-start it needed.

The group of ten who gathered on Monday morning came with widely differing experience and expectations. ‘Experimental’ could sound intimidating, but at least one participant interpreted it as open to those with little technical expertise. This proved to be true as there was no assumed knowledge and no...

This article discusses the pros and cons of physical training multiple times a day. Speak to the conditioning team at Exeter Chiefs and they will rightly say that multiple daily training sessions are very effective especially pre-season. However, speak to the average fitness enthusiast and they may say that they got weaker, tired, irritable and even ill after sustained 2 x per day training.

So here is a link to my blog that explains the various factors to consider before adding a lot of volume to your training regime. I also give examples of various splits and an example program to...

Dunchideock Barton has this morning got out the snow plough and cleared all the roads leading to Dunchideock in readiness for our party!

We would love to see you at the school today to see the stunning work the students produced in their exams over the last two...

How does our brain “learn” from stressful events?

A study that aims to investigate how the brain processes stress and creates memories of psychologically stressful events will begin shortly thanks to funding of £758,000 from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council.

Researchers from the Universities of Bristol and Exeter, led by Professor Hans Reul, aim to investigate the role molecular processes, known as “epigenetic modifications”, play in the regulation of expression of genes required to cope with stress. At present it is unclear how the healthy brain adapts to and learns from stressful events.
