#AskRuby 31 March 2016

Thank you all for your #AskRuby questions - fascinating as always.  You can ask me anything with #AskRuby over on twitter. 

Elaine Clancy @elainecclancy
@Rubywax #AskRuby which book should I start with first Sane New World or mindfulness guide for the Frazzled, in your opinion?

 
If you want to know why you’d need Mindfulness get Sane New World. If you want to learn how to do mindfulness (my much easier to use in everyday life version) go to Frazzled. I’d say get both and cut between the two continuously until you’re finished, then I’ll write you another book.

@Rubywax #askruby How do you stop yourself constantly worrying about things you can't do anything about? X

​
Worrying always means you can’t do anything about something - otherwise you wouldn’t worry. If you recognize this simple truth then start to listen to the worrying as you would a familiar but irritating sound track – eventually you lose interest.

#AskRuby it's hard keeping good routines on bad days but at least I have dark cloud reminding me why needed. On good days I forget. Any tips


If you have a good day, bring out the champagne, blow up the balloons and celebrate. You’re lucky to have one day with no clouds.

@Rubywax #AskRuby I've had depression for 5 years and im suffering with bulimia too. trying so hard to not give up. Does it get better?  😢


I have to acknowledge the depressed elephant in the room by asking if you’re on medication? If the depression is on-going, why aren’t you?  If you had any other disease would you allow yourself to suffer?  No, you would not.  If you’re on a medication and its not working, change it, there are hundreds.  Yes, I promise it gets better.


Lori C @Lori6283
@Rubywax Does Mindfulness really help depression? I just cannot motivate myself to look into it. And where do I start? 😞 #AskRuby


Research shows that those who’ve had depression for more than three or more episodes, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy yields a 60 per cent chance of preventing relapse. To learn how to do it, listen to Headspace you don’t even have to leave your bed, just switch it on and listen.
 

Sally Brantley @Sally4x
@Rubywax #AskRuby where is the best place to start with Mindfulness?


On  YouTube listen to Mark Williams, my professor at Oxford, co-founder of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and a genius.  No one makes it clearer, not even me.
 

Abdullah Alsarraf @aboodsarraf
@Rubywax do you have any background on Depersonlization? #AskRuby

No.  I’m just a small person I can’t know everything about everything.
 

Tiffany Louise Clark @tifflouclark
@Rubywax #AskRuby my anxiety is from regretting wrongly spent (being unhappy/not achieved) time that can't get back,how can I remedy this?TY


It’s not just your problem, it’s a hard, cold fact; none of us cant get time back.  It might make you feel better to know we all suffer from knowing it.


Nadia Jean Flynn @nadiaflynn80
@Rubywax #AskRuby how do I stop perfectionism & be patient with myself/life? Have a broken heart ATM


Imagine if your best friend told you that she was heartbroken, how would you respond?  I’m sure you’d be patient and compassionate. Just turn that on yourself. 
 

smithy @GailaSmith
@Rubywax when are u back on TV! #askruby


When someone asks me to go back. But in the meantime I’m ‘live’ on stage in “Frazzled” – waaaay more fun.  I can see the whites of people’s eyes.


Suzi ♫ @MessMakerPro
#AskRuby How did you manage to move to England?  Can I defect to England if Trump becomes President?


Don’t wait, get on a plane now, the end is nigh and you’ll be crushed by the hoards trying to exit when he wins.
 

Charlotte Foxon @Charlotte_Foxon
@Rubywax Would you ever do another run of 'Ruby Wax Meets...'? I adored that show, had to dig out the Trump one the other day! #AskRuby


If I’m paid well, I’d do almost anything but I will not meet Trump ever again. Even if we’re talking millions, I’d rather cut out my tongue.


Nicky @winklesbird 
@Rubywax how can I shut up my negative internal monologue!  #AskRuby


If you run from the monster, it will chase you. If you face it, it will run away. We all have that yabbering critic in our heads berating us through a bullhorn, so you’re not alone.  Try mindfulness you learn to live with it; not obey it or believe it – then it loses its hold on you. 


Mediathirsty @Mediathirsty
@Rubywax #AskRuby How would you use your own personal forcefield? #myownforcefield


As in “Star Wars”? I wasn’t aware I had one.
 

 Hàna Swann @hanaswaan
@Rubywax #AskRuby What do u think of  Mindfulness Meditation as a Buddhist Practice??


 It is a Buddhist practice, mindfulness is just more Western so you don’t have to sit in lotus position with your legs in a bow or clean up your act so you don’t come back in your next life as a cricket.  Meditation happened to have the best results as far as reducing stress, which is made evident in a brain scanner. So thank you Buddhists.


Matthew Sinclair @mtthwsnclr
In your workshops @Rubywax, what's the biggest misconception about #mentalhealth you hear from managers? #AskRuby  


Managers sometimes just throw up their arms and say it’s not their problem, they don’t know how to deal with it.  It is their problem because if anyone in their team goes under, it’s a reflection on their competence.


Emma @emmac007
@Rubywax #askruby when you are not feeling great what song makes you feel a bit better


‘Creep’ by Radiohead; it’s my anthem.  It’s so heart splittingly beautiful. I identify with the agony of feeling like a freak.
 

sarah drew jones @sdj19
@Rubywax Will Hillary Clinton get your vote this November? And please sum up #Trump in three words. #AskRuby


Asshole! Asshole! Asshole!
 

not him a Glen! @glenpk2
Was the Omen your first acting job? #AskRuby @Rubywax


Yes and I was fantastic as someone who had one line.
 

Tom Urie @mrtomurie
@Rubywax #AskRuby  who would play you in a movie of your life?


Carrie Fisher
 

John Bradley @flypie
@Rubywax Where did it all go wrong? #AskRuby


That’s the question I ask almost every hour and have up with no answer.
 

Kevin G @eatwasps
@Rubywax are you involved with the #abfabmovie? #askruby


Yes I wrote some of the lines - what more is there to give?

get your ex back with a love spell that works fast.
Dr.Jumba   has helped thousands of women get their Ex boyfriends back using his real effective love Spell. After my boyfriend of one year broke up with me, I could barely speak without crying. I felt blindsided and didn't know what to do. I didn't know if I could get him back and the anxiety was unbearable. I needed him back desperately because I loved him so much. So I contacted this great spell caster for help. He helped me cast a return love spell on him and just within 11 hours my boyfriend came back to me crying and begging for my forgiveness. Dr. Jumba released him to know how much I loved and wanted him. And He also opened his eyes to picture how much love we have shared together. As I am writing this testimony right now I am the happiest woman on earth. I want to recommend this great spell caster to anyone that truly needs an urgent solution to a love break up. Email him at   wiccalovespelltools@yahoo.com , wiccalovespelltools@gmail.com  or Call/WhatsApp him:  +19085174108    "I'm so grateful and can say that if you have been broken up with and want to get that person back, Dr.Jumba   is the best! I'll never forget how much he helped me

Just wanted to say thank you for Frazzled last night in Chesham. It was great. I am mum to the teenager you spoke with. On the way home, he commented that he thought it was a good thing we all (parents & child) came to the show together as it opened up a dialogue. Interestingly, he didn't like the idea of a teenage version separately. He has really struggled with stress at school so mindfulness may well be a useful tool for him to explore. You also made the point well that he doesn't have to be who he is now, or the person in a dark place. He can effect change. My husband,not known for his empathy or acknowledgement of mental health issues, has downloaded your books. He wants to know whether he could use mindfulness as the angry boss......thank you. I would also say that I think you need to include some science because the term mindfulness is being banded about at the moment, but not often used properly in context so devalued. It's important people understand what it really is (& I didn't fully get it until last night, even having worked on a mental health project) You are a great voice for mental health.

Saw you at Mdhead. I had no idea it was about mindfulness, but I think this is going to help a lot of people. Good for you Ruby to put yourself out there and tell us about a load of personal shit!! Not many people would be brave enough to do that who are in the limelight. Love the eyebrow trick I must use it! Got to go now cows to milk; sheep to shear haha!
