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.

Below are several Activities and Awareness Days taking place around the World.
Here is a short list of November’s Special Days, National & International Awareness Days.
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.
Later it became the 9th month when two months were added to the then Calendar. Nine representing wisdom and a season of vast possibilities. Nine letters in its name!
There is something about August that raises hope, and generates a sense of fun and celebration; perhaps it is because we are heading towards the last days of expected sunny days as the year rolls over to the darker cooler season.
“Persons born in April is said to be very energetic and active. They have a great love for food, reading and travel. April folk laugh, and being full of life, they are fun to be around. Queen Elizabeth II and Shakespeare share this birthday. Some say is sacred to goddess Venus.”
