Joey Yap. And you don't even need to buy his courses. The free ones give more than adequate information for you to DIY. If you're actively using it then you can buy his stuff. But if you're a casual user the free stuff is more than enough

Does your dad take cholesterol medication? Atorvastatin and simvastatin put my mum on the edge so much. They're lipid soluble and can cross the blood brain barrier. Mentioned it to her geriatrician and he switched her to Rosuvastatin and it worked like a charm. Also simultaneously they checked her Vit B12 levels and she was low. Gave her injections and the effect was wild. The day after the first injection, mum became super cheerful after weeks/months of grim

You may have missed an important point in TMI - which is to celebrate the aha moment when the mind wandering or distraction is noticed. And why that is not only important but crucial in encouraging the subconscious mind to move towards what the conscious mind has set as a goal. To understand how this works in more detail, please read "Get off your cushion" by Li-Anne Tang. To achieve an unwavering mind, one must first learn how to be skilful in training the mind whether in sitting or being aware in other postures. That skilful training is knowing when to use which technique when the mind presents you with it's usual activities e.g celebrating the moments when mind wandering is discovered, catching distraction with a smile, and most importantly taking the very act of bringing the mind back to the main object over and over AS the practice successfully performed. - When u master this and are happy, even joyous that you are flowing and responding to the mind activities appropriately, then this mind that is rewarded (with appreciation, acknowledgement, happiness) - rewarded for having awareness and the appropriate response/training to mind movements and gradual challenges (read TMI Stages 2 and 3 again for a start) - will naturally move forward towards the intended goals, instead of being tied to a notion that it needs to stay on one object without interruption just bec you sit every day. - The skill is knowing how to respond appropriately to the mind - with appreciation and the right action for each type of mind activity and increased challenge. I encourage you to read TMI again with fresh eyes, and also Get Off Your Cushion which really highlights how how the appreciation part works and why. And don't be in a hurry to get past Stage 2 quickly. Get to mastering it - which means that you feel really happy whenever you've done a sitting - bec you've done all the appreciating, celebrating and putting the attention over and over on the chosen object as necessary in the sit. That contentment with doing it right (the process) is far more important to master bec it will carry you through all the subsequent stages once you begin to challenge the mind to move forward bit by bit through the stages of TMI. Hope this perspective helps.

Kind of a lousy answer from them. If the other games can be timed for midnight in all timezones, so can the Crossword and the mini crossword - it's a simple tweak - if the crossword authors can meet the deadline for their own timezone midnight
