Listening to Paul McKenna's CD Change Your Life in 7 Days. Some of my friends raise their eyebrows at this.  So what if it's commercial? It works for me.

I have not watched TV for 4/5 years apart from the odd movie and think we must all be very careful what we feed to the psyche and mindful of how we spend our time. I swear we have become a society addicted to negativity, drama and bad news; also ripping people apart in the human zoo of reality TV for our entertainment. To counteract the negative dramas of normal media I go to this site: www.positivenews.org.uk

Climbing, climbing, climbing - anything from Scafell Pike to the sycamore tree in my dad's back garden. It's the endorphin rush I get when I reach the top.

If I can get it together to help someone who's feeling even more depressed than me I always feel better.

Viktor E Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning. This guy managed to find generosity, hope and even beauty amidst the squalor, suffering and degradation of a concentration camp.

The Arctic Monkeys and soaking my feet in hot water and lavender oil.

I find 'Thought for the Day' from School of Philosophy really cheers me up and gives me something to think about too.  Here's an example:

'We have not come into the world to be numbered; we have been created for a purpose; for great things: to love and be loved.' Mother Teresa of Calcutta (1910 - 1997), Catholic nun and social worker

Re-reading Tolkein's The Lord of The Rings. It's been my bible since adolescence. I look and feel like Gollum most of the time, but reading it never fails to bring out the Aragorn in me.

Going on the wagon for a week and having plenty of sex.

When I'm feeling blue I listen to the Blues. It's kind of cathartic. My favourite Bluesmates are John Lee Hooker, BB King and Stevie Ray Vaughan. If I'm really feeling down I play along with my harmonica.
