There are many elements that factor into improving your sleep hygiene. Chief among them, and perhaps most relevant to our current state of sleeplessness, is separating yourself from your technology, and, more critically, from the Bob seger night moves classic rock music vintage shirt Also,I will get this endless news: staying informed doesn’t have to mean being constantly plugged in. Besides putting your phone to bed (far away from your own bed, it should be added) before you hit the pillow, Gallagher says you should put a timer on your daily consumption: she suggests ten minutes max. (Yup, you read that right. If you need a little longer than ten minutes to get through the top stories, then focus on limiting your news consumption to a specific short period during the day and resist the urge to constantly dip back in.) “We really have to be intentional about taking space,” says Gallagher. “It’s not ignorant or burying your head in the sand. You can stay informed and also protect your mental health.” According to Coor, there’s a lot to be said for prioritizing the meeting of your basic needs: healthy food, sunshine, sleep, connection, movement, and, also, boundaries. Our home and work lives have become overlapped, often uncomfortably so. “Everything flows together and there’s no space from anything, so creating those boundaries for yourself [with your partner and kids if you have them] is a self-caring thing to do,” she says. And, while it may seem counterintuitive, movement can also go far in helping us feel more grounded. To wit, this week, The Class by Taryn Toomey is offering quickie 15-minute classes focused on movement and breath through their virtual studio. On Sky Ting TV, you can stream instructor Jenn Tardif’s nervous system-calming grounding and moving meditation classes and, timed to election week, stream five days of free restorative classes.Lean into it. “Your anxiety is signaling that there are feelings and issues youneed to attend to, so create some real space for it,” says Guralnik. Amidst the constant stream of news, the inability to focus is a common complaint, but to really understand the root of what may be causing your anxiety, you have to embrace some distraction. Guralnik suggests using an exercise like writing, drawing, meditating, or listening to music to create time to let your mind wander and check in with your feelings.

Yes, connection is critical, but there’s a marked difference between doing it online versus IRL. “The mere act of being around other people is good for our well-being and we’re feeling the Bob seger night moves classic rock music vintage shirt Also,I will get this hit of those missed social connections when we just get them from technology,” says Laurie Santos, a professor of psychology at Yale and host of The Happiness Lab podcast. Even the absence of banal workplace banter about lunch plans or your weekend is perceptible: when there’s no casual talk, explains Gallagher, all your work interactions become transactional and, therefore, less meaningful. It can also be hard to see people as a whole when you’re not actually around many people at all. “We’re often seeing people through the lens of social media or their political views so we have these two-dimensional versions of each other,” adds Gallagher. Even though socializing poses much more of a challenge right now, prioritizing safe, distanced meet-ups with friends is vital. “The pandemic has also revealed our dependence,” says Guralnik. “Despite our ideals of individualism, it turns out we deeply depend on each other.”“A racing heart is a sign that your sympathetic nervous system or ‘fight or flight’ response is activated,” explains Santos. “Our bodies give us one way to shut off this system and that’s through our breath.” Pausing to take some deep belly breaths, or just focusing with intention on your breath for a few moments can be an antidote—and a quick one, at that—for a racing heart or mind. “That simple act can activate our vagus nerve and help us turn on our parasympathetic nervous system, which is focused on ‘rest and digest,’” she adds.The most effective way to shake off negativity, says Santos, is to redirect it by intentionally and repeatedly listing a few things you’re grateful for—and really, it can be anything; your beloved morning cup of coffee qualifies. “Even during challenging times there can still be stuff that brings us joy, and research shows that the simple act of scribbling down three to five things you’re grateful for each day significantly improves your well-being,” says Santos.“The definition of anxiety is fear of the unknown and intolerance of uncertainty,” says Gallagher. Between COVID and the election, we are living in a time of peak uncertainty. “When we don’t know, we feel out of control, which, in turn, makes us feel scared and overwhelmed.” Escaping that spin cycle is about being grounded in the present and, says Coor, leaning heavily on daily routines: “You’re always in a cat-like state of readiness when you don’t know what’s coming. So whatever you can make predictable, do it.”Gallagher has been telling people to end each day with some non-judgmental observation: taking a few moments to consider what went well and what didn’t, then how to recreate more of the former and minimize the latter going forward. But if the anxiety you’re experiencing is paralyzing and you’re struggling, identify that, accept it, and seek out therapy; the virtual model has actually made it more accessible and convenient than ever. “We’re getting inundated and it’s really great,” says Coor. “Because it’s OK to not be OK. It makes sense that you’re not OK, it’s perfectly normal that you’re not OK.”

History[edit]

1976–79: Early years and Primal Park[edit]

Mondo Rock were formed in November 1976 in Melbourne by Bob Bickerton on drums (ex-Rock Granite and the Profiles); Mike Clarke on bass guitar (ex-Mick Rogers and Eclipse); Greg Cook on keyboards and guitar (ex-Cam-Pact, Skylight, Phil Manning Band); Peter Laffy on guitar (ex-Fox, Freeway); and Ross Wilson (ex-Daddy Cool) on lead vocals and harmonica.[1][2]

In September 1978, Mondo Rock released their debut single, 'The Fugitive Kind', on Oz Records[1] which peaked at number 49 on the Australian Kent Music Report.[3] In October 1979 the line-up of Wilson, Simon Gyllies (bass), Randy Bulpin (guitar), Laffy and Iain McLennan (drums) recorded their debut album, Primal Park, which was issued on the Oz label via EMI Records and peaked at number 40 in Australia.[1] The album yielded two singles, 'Searching for My Baby' (September) and 'Primal Park' (November).[1] McLennan contracted hepatitis as the band was due to tour to promote the album, so he was replaced, first by Eddie Van Roosendael (ex-Stiletto), and then by Gil Matthews (ex-Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs) on drums, for the tour.[1][2]

1980–84: Breakthrough - Chemistry, Nuovo Mondo & The Modern Bop[edit]

In February 1980, a new version of Mondo Rock of Wilson, Matthews and James Black (ex-Rum Jungle, Russell Morris Band) on keyboards and guitar; Paul Christie (ex-Kevin Borich Express) on bass guitar; and Eric McCusker (ex-The Captain Matchbox Whoopee Band) on guitar was established.[1][2]

This line-up released their first major hit single, 'State of the Heart' in October 1980, which peaked at number 6 on the Kent Music Report.[3] The track was written by McCusker,[4] who contributed many songs to the band's repertoire, taking some of the pressure off Wilson, who was experiencing temporary writer's block.[1][3] Matthews left after the single appeared and was replaced by Andy Buchanan (ex-Darryl Cotton Band) and then by John James 'J. J.' Hackett (ex-Stars, the Fabulaires) in March 1981.[1][2] Their next single, 'Cool World', appeared in April 1981 and was also successful on the chart, reaching No. 8.[1][3]

The band's second album, Chemistry was released in July 1981 and peaked at number 2 on the Kent Music Report.[1][3] Two more singles were released from the album with 'Chemistry' peaking at number 20 and 'Summer of '81' at 31.[3] The royalties from 'Summer of '81' single were donated to Amnesty International.[5]

In June 1982, Mondo Rock released 'No Time', the lead single from the band's third studio album. According to McCusker, 'No Time' was inspired by The Beatles' 'Don't Let Me Down', as a tribute to John Lennon.[5] The song peaked at number 11 in Australia. In July 1982 the band released its third studio album Nuovo Mondo, on RCA / WEA, which peaked at number 7 in Australia.[1][3] Christie left the group in September and subsequently formed an all-star band, The Party Boys; he was replaced on bass guitar by James Gillard.[1][2] Two additional singled were released, 'The Queen and Me' and 'In Another Love'. The album also includes 'A Touch of Paradise' which was released in February 1987 by Australian pop singer John Farnham, as his third single from his album, Whispering Jack and reached the Australian top 30.[1][3][6]

By 1983, the Mondo Rock line-up of Wilson, Black, Gillard, Hackett, and McCusker started recording their fourth studio album. In December, the album's lead single 'Come Said the Boy' was released, which peaked at number 2 in Australia.[1][3] The song is a provocative tale about the loss of virginity and was banned by many radio stations including Sydney's then top-rated 2SM – which was affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church.[7]The Modern Bop was released in March 1984 and peaked number 5 in Australia. The album yielded two more singles, 'Baby Wants to Rock' and 'The Modern Bop'.

1985–91: Up to the Moment & Boom Baby Boom[edit]

In June 1985 Polydor Records released the band's first compilation album Up to the Moment, which peaked at number 5.[1][3] The album produced two singles, 'Good Advice' and 'The Moment'. On 13 July 1985 Mondo Rock performed four tracks for the Oz for Africa concert (part of the global Live Aid program). The concert was broadcast in Australia (on both Seven Network and Nine Network) and on MTV in the US.[8]

The group's sixth studio album, Boom Baby Boom was released in September 1986 with the line-up of Wilson, Gillard, Hackett, and McCusker, joined by Andrew Ross on saxophone and Duncan Veall on keyboards.[1][2] The album peaked at number 27 in Australia. The album's second single 'Primitive Love Rites' was released in October 1986 and peaked in the top 40 in Australia[1][3] and in 1987, became a minor hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reached the top 40 on its Mainstream Rock chart.[9] In November 1987, the band released an extended play titled, Aliens. Wilson disbanded the group early the following year and recorded a solo album, The Dark Side of the Man, which included a top 40 single, 'Bed of Nails', in June 1989.[1][10][11]

In 1990 Mondo Rock reconvened and recorded the group's sixth studio album, Why Fight It?, which was issued in November 1990.[1][2] Three singles were released from the album, 'Why Fight It?', 'I Had You in Mind' and 'Soul Reason'.[1] In 1991 Wilson dissolved the group again.[1]

1991–present: After disbandment[edit]

Classic

After disbanding Mondo Rock, Wilson initially formed RAW with Barry Deenik on bass guitar; Michael Sheridan on guitar (ex-No); and Craig Waugh on drums (ex-Uncanny X-Men).[10] They performed on the pub rock circuit until 1993 and then Wilson continued his solo career.[1][12] Black had left in 1984 and worked in a variety of groups including GANGgajang (1984), Men at Work (1985), and The Black Sorrows (1985, 1994, 2004).[2][13] By the mid-1990s McCusker was a director for the Australasian Performing Right Association.[14] Since 2005 Black features on the Australian TV quiz show, RocKwiz, on SBS as a member of the house band, RocKwiz Orkestra.

In 2006 the line-up of Wilson, Black, Christie and McCusker appeared in the 2006 Countdown Spectacular concert series and performing a medley of 'Cool World' and 'Summer of '81' and a full version of 'Come Said the Boy'.[12]

In June 2014, the band reunited to perform their 1981 album Chemistry.[15] The 2014 Mondo Rock line-up featured original band members Ross Wilson, Eric McCusker, James Black and Paul Christie with The Aztecs drummer Gil Matthews. The band released Besto Mondo in August 2015.
