New Year Fresh Goals!

^{Get the Most From a Nature Walk!}

^{Hear the birdsong, the ocean thundering, the stream gurgling - not the stream of music flooding your ears, or even the chatter of a friend  on your mobile drowning out these soothing natural sounds.}

^{Then feast your eyes on the source of the communication, and, breathing deeply, relax fully into the moment.} 

^{I predict that even a short walk taken this way will leave you refreshed.}

Hello dear friend,

I wish you and yours a very Happy New Year!

I wonder if you have made any new year's resolutions? Mine include trying to eliminate as much plastic as possible in my food shopping. The first item I plan to change is milk in plastic bottles. I have tracked down a milkman who delivers. He also stocks yoghurt in glass jars - so that's another product I regularly eat which I can now buy in glass. Happily both the milk and yoghurt are also organic so healthier and kinder for the cows.

When I have tried this delivery out I will let you know if I can recommend the company involved.

I have made this decision because, as you - all of us?! - know: plastic has carcinogenic properties. And now that, in the UK, the number of people getting cancer is said to be 1 in 2 - and that includes some of my closest friends - I feel that urgent preventative action needs to be taken.

I wonder what new year resolutions you have made. I would love you to let me know. To do this simply click on the Contact me button.

Love and blessings

Put Christ Back into Christmas!

^{Monday 24th December 2018 Christmas Eve}

Hello dear friend,

I hope you are well and have finished preparations for your Christmas celebrations tomorrow.

I am looking forward to attending Midnight Mass at midnight for a change! For the last few years this time spot has got earlier and earlier. Fortunately our parish priest is a traditionalist - hence the Mass will be held at midnight. Before this there will be carol singing. And I have manoeuvred myself into the role of "Greeter" so I will be very busy and won't have time to think about the fact that this is the first Christmas without Dad and the third without Mum.

You may be in a similar place in your life. If you are I hope that by focussing on Christ this Christmas - instead of the surrounding festivities - you will get through with a sprinkling of Joy!

Wishing you a very Happy and Holy Christmas. 

Love and blessings

Teresa
