When does distraction become avoidance?
Can you have too much of a good thing? In this newsletter, Sophie and Germaine continue the conversation about whether we can ever read or cook too much...
Welcome to the Shownotes and some added extras for our episode about distraction and how when taken to the extreme they can stop us from living. We both read this guest essay on Reading versus Living by Ochuko Akpovbovbo in Pandora Sykes’s Books & Bits newsletter and it got us thinking and talking together about ways we can unconsciously use distraction to avoid dealing with our lives.
There is so much food for thought in this conversation! When we are aware of our actions and our intent behind them, we can get some welcome relief. It’s when we are unaware we won’t get the same relief. We hope you will find some interesting links, books reviews and recipes that will help keep your mind open for growth and new possibilities.
