Сегодня я встала в 7 утра. Светит солнышко, воздух очень свежий и я хочу выйти погулять. 
Я позавтракала в 10 утра. Обычно я не завтракаю утром, но сегодня я решила позавтракать. 
Сегодня у меня выходной и поэтому у меня есть время на мои дела. 
Я буду читать, вязать, слушать музыку, спать и может быть, я выйду погулять. Сейчас мне нужен покой потому что я упала, когда каталась на роликах. Да, я купила себе ролики! Но мне нужно научиться кататься и научиться падать.

🗣️ Is something holding you back in your language learning—something deeper than motivation or time?

What if the real barrier isn’t the subjunctive mood—but your subconscious?

In Episode 98 of 111 Tips for Learning a Language, we explore how psychodynamic therapy principles can help you uncover the hidden emotional patterns, fears, and unconscious stories that shape your journey.

Episode 98 delves into how psychodynamic therapy principles can reveal and resolve the unconscious barriers—like resistance, transference, and hidden fears—that impact language learning. By exploring the inner world of emotions, memories, and self-protective patterns, you can transform language learning from a struggle into a deeply personal and freeing journey of growth.

This isn’t a lesson in grammar—it’s an invitation to understand yourself.

You’ll learn:

How to recognize and work with resistance, not against it

Why you might transfer old feelings onto tutors, languages, or even yourself

What your dreams and free associations reveal about your relationship to learning

How to turn language learning into a meaningful journey of self-discovery

If you’ve ever felt stuck, repetitive, or emotionally triggered while learning, this episode offers a compassionate and curious path forward.

Episode 3: The Most Useful Russian Phrase You Must Know

Durante mi estancia como profesor para nepalís en India, algunas noches entre té y té, disfrutaba de charlas sobre el Himalaya. Fábulas del Nepal sobre el origen del mundo, de la cascada que nace el Ganges desde la cabellera de Shiva y también de las hazañas de los sherpas que conocen hasta el más mínimo secreto de la cordillera más impresionante de nuestro planeta. Casi todos decían lo mismo: el Everest es el más alto, pero no es el más difícil de ascender.

¡Hacia la cima!

A social media ban for children under 16 has passed the Australian Senate and will soon become a world-first law.

The law will make social media platforms — TikTok, Facebook, Snapchat, Reddit, X and Instagram — liable for fines of up to $33 million for failures to prevent children younger than 16 from holding accounts.

The platforms will have one year to work out how they could implement the ban before penalties come into effect.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the ban is necessary, having previously argued that there is a "clear, causal link" between social media and the harm done to the mental health of young Australians.

Opposition Senator Maria Kovacic shared similar views.

"The core focus of this legislation is simple: It demands that social media companies take reasonable steps to identify and remove underage users from their platforms," she told the Senate.

"This is a responsibility these companies should have been fulfilling long ago, but for too long they have shirked these responsibilities in favor of profit," she added.

But while many support the ban, some argue the legislation could cause more harm than it prevents.

Senator David Shoebridge, from the Greens party, said mental health experts agreed that the ban could dangerously isolate many children who used social media to find support.

"This policy will hurt vulnerable young people the most, especially in regional communities and especially the LGBTQI community, by cutting them off," Shoebridge told the Senate.

Opponents also argue the ban would isolate children, deprive them of the positive aspects of social media, drive them to the dark web, discourage children too young for social media to report harm and reduce incentives for platforms to improve online safety.

While the law is the first of its kind worldwide, other countries have discussed similar measures.
