Bottoming our way through pandemic lockdowns (with lavender mist and pills)

Inger recorded this guestapooloza version of On The Reg just
before Canberra was locked down... as she says in the pod "things
might change before you hear this".

Luckily her guest was Narelle Lemon from the Wellbeing Whisperer,
who was able to impact many relaxation tips. Inger is crap at
relaxing, so Narelle's suggestions were extremely helpful. The
pair have a surprisingly intense conversation about sleep: how to
fall asleep, stay asleep and annoy your partner with the pillow
that must go between your knees when you have 'academic
back'.

Amongst other topics discussed are 'data knitting', the
importance of the inner rebel, how to take a compliment,
acupuncture and the online attention economy. In other words,
this was a pretty typical episode of On The Reg, sans JD - but he
does call from On The Road in Covid Free WA!

matters.
