I’m guessing it will have the opposite effect.
HELEN TRIES IT: My neck often hurts when I drive so I decided my product to try for you today from Helen’s Page is Russ Mitchell’s book Driving With Ease. Mitchell uses the Feldenkrais Method to help drivers use gentle movements and techniques to drive longer distances without getting as fatigued and emotionally drained when they go on long trips. He starts his chapters with exercises for you to do on the floor and then moves into using them in the car. I tried a few of the exercises he suggested in the first few chapters and while I felt kind of ridiculous lying on the floor, they were kind of calming and nice. The rest of the book focuses on using your pedals and arm positions in the car to cause the least strain. I hope to continue learning more and to work up to driving longer distances which I have been reluctant to do because I find it tedious.
If you want to take a look at the book, it can be found for free on kindle unlimited or you can order it directly from the author. He describes himself as a “recovering academic” so let’s all support him in his recovery. (Bumped)

WE SHOULD BE. THE EFFECTS ARE ALL AROUND US. Over 50% Of Liberal, White Women Under 30 Have A Mental Health Issue. Are We Worried Yet?
Conservatives label younger liberal generations as snowflakes or as having Trump derangement syndrome if they didn’t like the past president; liberals and progressives label right-leaning individuals or conservatives as racists, bigots, misogynists, etc. Resorting to this type of lowbrow behavior might once have been seen as an excuse not to address the actual issues or beliefs at hand, but now ad hominem attacks are more common than not.
But what if what was once a cheap shot or a personal insult has actually been found to bear scientific correlation between the individuals who hold progressive ideologies and an increased risk of mental illness? That’s exactly what Pew Research has found — and all politics aside, the shocking diagnosis of over 50% of liberal women with some form of mental health medical diagnosis is a public health concern that no one seems to be discussing, let alone taking seriously.
Well, it’s a problem that benefits the powers that be.

GOOD: New: Group to fight Democrat-CEO ‘wokism,’ ‘anti-Americanism.’
Fed up with corporate CEOs “caving into woke pressure” from liberals to cancel traditional values and question reasonable election reforms, the nation’s leading conservative group announced a new center to challenge the trend on Tuesday.
The American Conservative Union told Secrets that it is establishing the Center to Protect Voters and Their Voices to call out public companies that fall in behind Democratic efforts to radicalize the nation by shouting down opponents with charges of racism.
“There is nothing more important that we can focus on than this,” said Matt Schlapp, ACU’s chairman and the head of the group’s annual Conservative Political Action Conference.
The move follows a growing number of public corporations and outfits, including Coca-Cola, Delta Air Lines, and Major League Baseball, falling in line with Democrats to condemn election reforms in Georgia that a nonpartisan group praised this week for providing easy access to ballots.
Personalize it. The CEO’s don’t care about their companies nearly as much as about their own quality of life.

MEANWHILE LEFTIST-CONTROLLED PLACES, FROM CITIES TO UNIVERSITIES, TO HOLLYWOOD AND THE MEDIA, ARE CESSPITS OF HATE, VIOLENCE, AND DISCRIMINATION: Rural Trump Voters Already Live in the Safe, Tolerant Utopia Leftists Claim to Want.
Life in Rural America (which is where Republican Trump voters live and govern), is clean, safe and racially tolerant. Most places in America where life is dirty, polluted, dangerous, violent, and plagued with racial hate and race riots, are cities that are almost exclusively populated by and governed by Democrats.
Outside of these Democrat-run cities, America is peaceful, safe, clean, and racially tolerant.
What’s more, if you remove these Democrat-run cities from our national statistics, you will find an America that is overwhelmingly peaceful, safe, clean, and racially tolerant.
Nevertheless, Democrats and their fake-media allies still blame Republicans for all of their problems.
According to them, it is Republicans who are responsible for racism, pollution, and gun violence — even though, out here where we all live, our air, water, and streets are safe and clean… We all own guns, but where we live there is no gun violence crisis… We are all supposed to be racists and responsible for all the hate crimes, but out here where we all live, there is no hate crime crisis.
Now, there will be exceptions, but those exceptions only serve to prove the rule.
Let me lay this out for you . . . .
Leftists say they want to live in a Utopia free of gun violence, free of pollution, and free of racism…
Well, that place already exists.
It’s called Rural MAGA Land.
Yeah, pretty much.
