Listening to BBC Radio 6 Music covering and thinking about the vinyl I grew up with.
Can't really beat weekend mornings, waking up to sounds of my parents' choices, spinning Björk, Love, Beck, and Primal Scream.

Really valuable paper, thoroughly recommended read for anyone working in applied settings (especially where engagement may be reactive or limited by time constraints).

Credit to Dr. Darren Britton Dr Andrew Wood Tim Pitt for sharing their insights in this way.

Final plug of this (I promise), only 2x spaces left this morning. Delighted to have such a warm reception for our first online delivery of this workshop, and can't wait to get started with everyone tomorrow evening!

Finding time for CPD can be tricky.
✂️One of my ways to watch content back is to split it into 20-minute segments - happy we can offer that for our workshop next month!
⚡Of course, we'd still love you to attend live so we can feed off the energy together!

Can only echo Dr Zoe Black 's sentiments. Rollercoaster 12 months of planning made possible by a great team and community who supported it. Hope all delegates and speakers shared my impressions of being an enlightening, encouraging, and inspiring couple of days.

I always feel a little deflated when a project comes to an end, especially one that has been 12 months in the making! Richard Simpson sums this up perfectly; friendship and togetherness. Those struck me at my first DSEP conference, brilliant if others shared those feelings again!

The annual BPS Sport & Exercise Psychology (DSEP) conference is less than two weeks away, but there is still time to register.
Whether it for one day, two days, or the full programme - don't miss this opportunity to connect and learn with colleagues from across the UK and beyond.
