I purchased a bunch of online history courses at Cambridge. I didn't think at this point in my life and career I could wholly fall in love with a new subject from scratch, but it's been extremely enjoyable and stimulating. This was part of a more general attempt to wean myself off social media and too much technology (I mean, online courses obviously, but slower moving subject matter at least). That's also been coupled with reading more physical books, and subscribing to a newspaper and some magazines. I would say that this has had a very positive effect on my mental health. I'm delighted that the entire Elon Musk/Twitter saga has largely passed me by, for example.
