I just wanted to take the opportunity to wish you a happy time over the holidays however you choose to spend them and to encourage you to create a fun, exciting and challenging 2009.
While I look forward to helping you in whatever way I can, in the end how much you enjoy the holiday and what you do and achieve during 2009 is going to be very much down to what you choose to focus on.
So rather than leave you with only my best wishes, I thought I’d leave you with some questions to ponder as you enjoy the next few days.
You see I know not everyone has a great time at Christmas and New Year- let’s be honest tough times and life challenges don’t always take their holidays when we do! Read the rest of this entry »

I’ve got a confession, the first week or so after my recent operation to plate my broken collar bone with my mind clouded by a lack of sleep mixed with the cycle of pain and grogginess due to the pain killers - I started to get into day-time T.V. documentaries.
One of my favourites was Ray Mears “Bushcraft” (Ray Mears is a British survival expert who tours the world learning the bush skills of native peoples).

Dawn seems to be on a mission to help herself and other women feel good about themselves whatever their body shape and I say more power to her.
