Mind Over Grind from Dark Coffee
Business
The first ‘Dark Coffee Morning’ took place on Facebook and Instagram Live, on Monday 23rd March, the first official day of lockdown in the UK. Aiming to be a conscious stream of thought covering a multitude of topics, Dark Coffee Mornings have adapted each day along with the situation.
This episode is a podcast version of the fourth ‘Dark Coffee Morning,’ on Thursday 26th March.
Discussed over the course of the Dark Coffee Morning:
The difficulties of social/physical distancing
Missing specific physical cues such as eye-contact and how odd it is trying to adapt to cues you’d usually have with others
Personal enquiry in terms of figuring out what it is you do miss and value
Discussion around a study of those over the age of 100 and the role of incidental conversations in reaching that age
Mental health services and opening conversations around mental health, authentic communication
Outlets such as music, singing and communication over technology
