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).

Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Notes -
Might repost this next week if I missed the boat, but:
Been thinking lately I'd like to get into cologne. Seems like a missing dimension. Not sure where to start looking, though.
If any of our resident cologne connoisseurs would care to advise me, I'd say my vibe in general is: Outdoorsy, backpacker, very masculine, cigar-smoking businessman in good suit, beach lover in tie-dye. Some of my favorite incenses are sandalwood, frankincense, and sage. The soap I use is palo santo-scented and that works very well for me.
And rest assured I have used cologne before and know how to (and how not).
Just thinking it'd be great to get a sample pack and do some exploring.
See here as well as previous posts. Also @Closedshop may have advice.
