My review:????
And Now For The Good News… :To the Future with Love by Ruby Wax looks at different things like education and food to see what the good things are that are coming, or are here already, just not in a big way, yet.
Ruby Wax compares the difference between schooling in China and Finland, such as in China where mental health issues bring shame to families, versus in Finland where they discuss how stories make them feel and why people do things.
There is also some suggested apps, and a mindful meditation to do with your phone where you chuck it out of a window, off a cliff, into the sea, your choice. And that sums up the book. It’s written with a playful tone but is there with a serious message.
Ruby Wax is public about her struggles with mental health, and so has been writing books to help others, and started Frazzled Cafes, which during Covid-19 is hosting online support meetings, and pre Covid-19 hosted in person meetings. Maybe it will again.
And Now For The Good News… :To the Future with Love was published on 17th September 2020, and is available to buy from Amazon, Waterstones and your local independent bookshop.
You can follow Ruby Wax on her website, Twitter and Facebook.
I was given this book in return for an unbiased review, so my thanks to NetGalley and to Penguin Books.
