About this project
This site is very much a personal project, created because seeking calm in an increasingly troubled world seems a good use of my remaining years.
In many ways, it’s a case of the blind leading the blind as calm is not something I’ve ever discovered. But I’m hoping that my never-ending search may help others on a similar path.
The pages below cover the story behind the site, how to get in touch, and how you can help keep it running. I’ve also added a post on how I use Claude.
I hope you enjoy exploring these pages. All the best, David x

About me
From designing a cult guru’s magazine in the early ’70s to selling the calm.com domain years later; how disillusionment eventually led to this resource for all things calming.
Help me
This self-funded site has no company or advertising behind it. If it’s helped you find some calm, please consider a small donation via Ko-fi to help cover hosting and running costs.
About Claude
How and why I harnessed the power of Claude, Anthropic’s AI, to help build, develop and maintain this website – it’s not been an easy relationship, but would have been impossible without it.
