Issue No. 002 · six pages

The Autumn Turn. Why the change in light moves your sleep, appetite and energy — and seven small turns for the week ahead, none of them costing anything. There is a page at the back you can print and stick on the fridge.

Where to Begin. The three reasons a practice falls over in week two, five rules for building one that survives, and one two-minute practice written out in full. With a thirty-day sheet to mark it on.

The guides come out of the same room as the medicine. If you want to see what is on the shelf — it is here.

And if six pages is not enough, our full guidebooks go a good deal deeper. Those ones are paid — everything on this page is not.

Written for general wellbeing and everyday living. Nothing in these guides is medical advice, and nothing in them is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
