The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).

Notes -
Might be obvious but take women glasses shopping with you. People look great in glasses but I have no fashion sense.
Some online direct sellers have crazy cheap glasses. Great for backups around the house. Warby Parker is great IMO but I don't think they're in Europe. Best style, cost, quality ratio by my Rx is very simple.
I bought some back-up pairs on trips to Morocco and Turkey. Kinda fun way to kill an afternoon, meet real people while travelling, get a functional keepsake, and also great cost to quality ratio.
Contacts are 100% worth figuring out ASAP. Infinitely better for some situations. Don't delay or be afraid. Its easy. Could mean you don't need Rx sunglasses. Maui Jim has highest clarity glass lenses if you want Rx sunglasses for driving, golf, the beach, etc. The style is not for everyone but the clarity of their glass lenses in insane.
