'Given that the average electric drill is in use for just 15 minutes each year, and is kept in storage for the rest of the time, it’s clear that many household items don’t really need to be owned at all' - @alexjgnana https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.

What if I test out treating myself like I'm a person who doesn't deserve to be paralysed by shame? What if I test out being compassionate to myself instead of yelling at myself? https://www.

This idea of scaffolding was kind of a lightbulb moment when you brought it up, because I could see how it might be integrated into the practical elements of hoarding recovery. https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/podcast-ep-189-scaffolding…

Jan's ebook reader had broken and, honestly, I'd never seen her so distraught. This meant that, for once, it was her failing to get words out of her mouth instead of me. Have a laugh and enjoy the perfection of imperfection this sunny Sunday #outtakes

In the latest podcast episode, Dr Jan Eppingstall and I talk about the idea of scaffolding, and how it can help us in our recovery and our dehoarding process. So what is emotional and practical and psychological scaffolding, and where can we get some?! Listen to the episode that went live yesterday to find out 🙌🏻

Pugh's global linearization for the nonautonomous unbounded system with $μ$-dichotomy via Lyapunov theory
The classical global linearization theorem for autonomous system given in [C. Pugh, Amer. J. Math., 91 (1969) 363-367] requires that nonlinear system with hyperbolicity satisfies boundedness and Lipschitz continuity.In this paper, we establish an {\em unbounded} global linearization theorem for nonautonomous systems subject to unbounded Lipschitz perturbations, under the assumption that the linear system admits a nonuniform $μ$-dichotomy (more general than classical exponential dichotomy).

So what's the difference between self-care and self-nurture? Here's why I'm trying to embrace self-nurture and am leaving self-care behind.
I talked about it in episode 187 of the podcast.

It can be very surface level, the concept of self-care. https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/podcast-ep-187-what-if-we-focused-less-on-self-care-and-more-on-self-nurture-to-progress…

The way I see self-nurturing is that it's deeper, it's more compassionate to ourselves, it's more sustainable and also it's more personalised. https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.

If the self-care information we are hearing is all about something we have to buy or something we have to spend money on or something that's being marketed at us, that's not actually what the spirit of self-care should be about. https://www.
