A Prayer for March
~ by Lady Dawnecia Palmer
“Life as Light, in God, through goodness come to us, now. Lighting our days, and making clear the path for us to trod.
Moving from the dark of winter towards the brightness of Spring, warm our hearts, still our fears, and delivers us from worry, hatred, blame, deceit, and many threatening dangers; which, oftentimes blight our joy, hinder our peace, and disturb our rest.
As the new month of March begins, and planetary forces prepare to endorse environmental changes on our world;
Life as Light, ready us too, by stirring a deeper, keener awareness of what is possible, so that with open hearts and ready mind, allow your kindness, love, and light, to fill our days and nights.
Let your brightness guide and lead, to heights of joy, and, unending realms of peace, till souls truly satisfied, in stillness rests.
Amen. Ashay.”
January 2023: A Thought for the year ahead
As we enter the New Year, fresh hopes, opportunities, possibilities lies ahead for each of us. It is how we approach each day that makes a year great, or I should say, makes a great year.
So, in the upcoming days, weeks and months, I am suggesting that you reflect this thought, perhaps jotting them down somewhere for easy access, and then reciting them out aloud each day. “I will approach all my days this year with hope and joy. I will try my best to see the good in everything and everyone. I am responsible for my own happiness, and I endeavour to do so. I choose gratitude over complaining, and peace over worry. “
Now, if you have just read the paragraph above, or better still, if you did as it suggested and owned the words as your own truth or wishes, then, I can assure you that you are already on route to a great year ahead!

I wish you Wellnessology, and success in all you do this year. May your days be ecstatic with hope. And each week filled to bursting with amazing testimonials, so that by the time the year comes to an end, you will be able to join me in the resounding joy-filled acclamation – “2023 has been a fabulous year for me!”
Namaste.

2022 DECEMBER CHEER!
Welcome to my blog page and to this glorious Month of December!
It is one of the colder wintery months, yet one in which hearts are warmed, indoors and outdoors spaces lit, vibrant colours red.. white .. green .. and tinsel, carol singing, gifts buying and exchanging, scrumptious Christmas day dinners, and a generous spirit of celebration and cheer is found everywhere!
December, bring for us the Christmas Story, a baby boy is born to the Virgin Mary in a stable in the little Town of Bethlehem. And though this is a story told for centuries over, yet each year, the meaning seems fresh with hope for people across the globe. For in the Christmas Story the baby Jesus represents God’s love gift to humanity. LIFE’s gift of forgiveness, the promise of a home above, and on earth the hope of peace, and goodwill to all.

A Prayer for December
God of all months, days, and times
To Thee we ascribe thanks and praise for this and all our days past and to come.
As we enjoy the festivities, gifts, and celebrations around this season of cheer, and whist we are very grateful, we are also mindful that there are those who are lonely, sad, broken, hungry, facing hardships and sufferings in various ways; for these we pay strength and hope, love, deliverance, provision, and peace.
We give thanks that it is so, and so it is. Amen and amen.

OCTOBER: Special Days, Holidays, and International Awareness Days
October, wetter cooler days and nights, yet a time we get to once again behold the beautiful fall of multi-coloured autumn leaves on the ground.
October tenth month of the year, comes from an old Latin word Octo which literally translates eight, was the eight month in the old Calendar of Romulus c..750 B C. It was also called Winterfylleth by the Saxons, meaning fullness of winter, as it sets us up in preparation for the colder, darker months ahead.
Colours associated with October are opal and tourmaline.
Metaphysically October is a time for spirit soul body balance, to set a higher, more conscious intention, on how we wish to show up and express on the planet, and within the sphere of our day to day experiences.
