The Way Home

    • The Way Home tells the story of three generations of women coming to terms with their trauma and how it has shaped their past and present.
    • If you enjoy Christmas movies where a pretty, white heterosexual woman returns home to be conveniently reunited with a lost love, then The Way Home is for you.
    • Ultimately, The Way Home is more enjoyable than the sum of its parts.

Am I

    • The dancers are all in black with only their feet, arms and faces visible, accentuating the shapes made by their upper bodies.
    • The backdrop is a wall of golden white light bulbs, which light in different patterns: at times a pixelated digital screen, other times an exploding sun.
    • They move through sequences using silver rods to produce line drawings in two dimensions, then three-dimensional clusters and networks.

While the Men Are Away

    • Well-meaning Gwen falls instantly for Frankie; the intense Esther is soon exchanging meaningful looks with Robert.
    • The costumes and production design have a soft-focus, Women’s Weekly glamour – a far cry from rationing and making do.
    • While the Men Are Away is a fantasy of queer visibility and acceptance, but the uneven script, churning plot and the often-didactic tone undermine its ambitions.

Annika season two

    • Neon (New Zealand); season one is available in Australia on iView and BritBox The second season of offbeat BBC police procedural Annika stands apart in a genre that usually veers towards silliness or misanthropy.
    • Season one followed the establishment of Glasgow’s specialist Maritime Homicide Unit, a small and unflappable team, which spends its time fishing bodies out of Scottish waterways and solving odd coastal crimes.
    • This is all while Annika navigated the prickly relationship with her teen daughter Morgan.

How to recover from childbirth – an expert guide

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, September 5, 2023

After all the physical changes during pregnancy and following childbirth, many women are left wondering how to get active again and where to begin.

Key Points: 
  • After all the physical changes during pregnancy and following childbirth, many women are left wondering how to get active again and where to begin.
  • Of course, activity after childbirth is an individual journey with multiple things to consider – and one of the first considerations may not be what you expect: your pelvic floor.
  • If you’ve just given birth (or are about to) and you’re wondering where to start, here’s what you need to know:

1. Keep your poo soft


    Straining on the toilet can overstretch the pelvic floor muscles which makes it harder for them to work properly. To avoid this you can keep your poo soft by drinking lots of water and increasing the fibre in your diet, such as high-fibre cereals, brown pasta and nuts. Also, consider your position on the toilet. The use of a stool underneath your feet can make it easier to poo without straining as it helps to straighten the end of the bowel.

2. Get your pelvic floor moving

    • This is because pelvic floor activity can improve the strength and function of the muscles to help bladder control and vaginal support.
    • After a vaginal delivery and even after a c-section, the recovery time for the pelvic floor continues for up to one year.
    • Pelvic health physiotherapists recommend squeezing your pelvic floor for ten seconds before relaxing for ten repetitions, followed by ten short squeezes.

3. Let things settle and go gently

    • The tummy helps to support the pelvis so rushing back to activity too quickly can put unnecessary strain on these areas.
    • Opt instead for a gentle increase in activity to help the muscles and joints settle such as walking, yoga or pilates rather than starting higher impact activity, like running, too early.

4. Check your mental health

    • The National Perinatal Mental Health Project Report focuses on improving mental health support for women after they have given birth by providing more support services.
    • These services can be accessed by speaking to your GP, midwife, health visitor or pelvic health physiotherapist.
    • Looking after your mental health and concentrating on your pelvic floor are good starting points.
