At #BBL14 at the #SydneyCricketGround watching Steve Smith score 121 runs not out. A fantastic innings. The Sixers scored 3/220. I am with two of my sons. One is a #Scorchers fan (he’s not that happy). The other is also a #Sixers fan. Go Sydney Sixers!

What ensures good mental health support in the ED? “Reframing, paraphrasing. Micro-skills that are used to build that trust and rapport. When actively listening and displaying empathy, it’s like gold, because people feel heard, they feel really deeply heard.” onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
