Synopsis

When a man finds himself alone at the end of a long term relationship, or during a prolonged separation, often it’s the first time in his life he’s had to look after himself. This little book will be a big help when you are learning to do those things she used to do for you. Are you one of those guys who can make all kinds of things but can’t make himself a meal? Or one of those guys who manages multiple projects at work but doesn’t have a clue when it comes to managing his personal space? This book is for you. It covers the basics of: • buying food and preparing meals • keeping the place clean • doing the washing, and • looking after yourself, physically, emotionally and spiritually. It’s a survival guide written by a fellow traveller, who has survived alone, to let you know you can too. The other title in this series is Cooking 4 One.

Sitting in silence

This excerpt is from the chapter on Looking after the inner man. I'm plugged in like everybody else. My smartphone beeps in my pocket and I read on my tablet when I'm riding the bus. But, I've discovered that spending ten to twenty minutes sitting in silence, doing nothing except maybe watching thoughts float by, in the morning before I go to work and again in the evening when I get home from the office, makes a big difference to how I see the day. Give yourself permission to just sit and do nothing for a little while each day.

After She's Gone

Quiet time

One of the secrets of good mental health is a daily quiet time.

Most of us have forgotten how to be quiet. I think a lot of us are afraid of silence. So much so that if we inadvertently sit in silence, we fall asleep.

Look around you at work, in the street, on the bus or train, and note what you see. You don’t see many people sitting, doing nothing and enjoying a quiet moment. No, you see everyone plugged into or playing with some device. We are addicted to distraction.

You can do yourself a favour just by remembering that all your devices have an off button, and using it. We all survived perfectly well before smartphones arrived. The world will not end if you disconnect for an hour, a day or even a month.
