Tip of the week
In case you should ever forget the awesome power of gravity...here is something I discovered as an adolescent Che, and have been indulging in ever since, though less lately.

At the end of a nice bath, let the water go nice and still, lie serene and find a position in which you can completely relax, arms by sides is best, rather than on top of stomach. Then, sit up, pull out the plug and immediately return to 'relaxed position'. Then just wait for the awesome power of gravity to make itself felt.

Seriously - this is far more impressive than I can easily convey. As the water drains away you first sink down to the bottom of the bath, then your arms drop, your legs become heavy, your body settles on the bottom and gains weight second by second. DON'T MOVE an inch until ALL of the water has gone, gurgling down the plug hole, you will find your heart beating faster, breathing becomes more difficult even.

I used to do this after smoking a joint or having a beer or two, but these are not necessary at all - best to have some music or the radio on though, otherwise people will wonder what you're up to.

Try it this weekend and let me know how you get on.

I did that once,
at first I was just being lazy, then I realised, this is awesome!
