Mr Delta - 2 months I got retrenched after 25yrs. I refused to let it get to me, so the very next day I gave myself a daily challenge to do hot yoga for 30 days - and also started looking for work straight away. I look back on October and I think I was in mild shock, but doing the yoga (or I think anything that challenges for the better - I also do daily brain exercises) every day was, and still is, an anchor that as helped keep my chin up, kept me believing in myself, believing I would find work.

I start a new similar job on Monday, and at 55 - feel truly blessed.

Mr Delta, it's a tough break getting retrenched, especially leading into Christmas, and I don't know your circumstances. But for me, it clearly helped having something positive in place (ie- the yoga/luminosity brain games) to do every day to maintain a positive frame of mind as I looked for work (and worked out what to do). For me, maintaining that positive stable base definitely helped me get another job.

Hope that helps and best of luck.

PS - But like you, lets hope we hit something "massive" and "commercial"!!!
