The Secret Bookclub in the Park
M Mehran Most people walked past us without noticing. To them, we were just a cluster of strangers on picnic blankets, sipping tea from mismatched thermoses.

We were unraveling worlds, chapter by chapter, beneath the old oak tree in the park.

In what ways can psychologists contribute to workplace mental health management and employee well-being improvement?

Occupational mental health is not only critical for employees' well-being but also for organizational performance, engagement, and retention. Psychologists play a significant role in helping employees and organizations manage mental health challenges and craft a healthier work environment.

Why the sex? And why is he white?
Hello, hello I really like reading. And last year in Portugal there was this very beautifull collection of classics being sold. All of them hardcover, with drawings and very classical looking covers. So, I bought some of them (my parents did cof cof). I wanted to read some classical literature and almost all of the writers of the books were women so it sounded like a great opportunity. One of books that I loved the most was The "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Brontë. I read the book so fast and was trying to convinve everyone around me to read it to.
