At the moment there is plenty in the world to worry about – inflation, energy crisis, war, mortgage and rent increases. Many of my friends have said they have stopped reading the news as much of it promotes fear or is depressing.
You are part of humanity and your behaviour has an impact whether you consciously recognise it or not. You are part of the collective consciousness of humanity and therefore contribute to steering our journey.
World calamities give us good reasons to change. Some call it the ‘burning ground’ and it’s a driver for doing things differently from the past.
The approach to Christmas can be a challenging time. Women are often the main organiser of school costumes for nativities, other social events, presents, and the food preparation for the day. Of course this is on top of normal daily activities. It is not a wonder many women are tense over the pre-Christmas period. Do you recognise the scenario?
However there are things women can do to help themselves. Lets look at some tips for the woman of the house…..
Tip #1 Stay calm – remember that the people coming on Christmas Day are friends and family. The day is not a test, they love you. Everything does not have to be perfect, only you want that. Do not be afraid to delegate tasks.
In the final match of the series, England will play South Africa on 20 November 2021 in what will be the first meeting between the sides since the Rugby World Cup 2019 final. This also sees the Springboks back at Twickenham Stadium for the first time since 2018, England edging that game 12-11.
Great Italian food will be served at the match from a vintage Ape Piaggio food truck by Spaggetti on the Road
Take a look at their fantastic menu that combines the “street“ gastronomic tradition with the Italian cuisine and always ensuring a high quality standard.
Many people have asked me if I think there is a purpose behind Covid-19. I believe it is offering us learning and healing on so many levels. The Spring lockdown was like humanity pressing the ‘pause’ button. Most of us were restricted to our homes with little external stimulation. It gave us time to reflect on who and what was important to us in our life.
As a result many people are choosing to live their life differently.
Certainly in London there is a building trend of people deciding to live outside of the city where there is more space and nature. They are limiting their work time in the office and commuting only when necessary.
I am truly sorry if you or your loved ones have been directly impacted by Covid-19. It can be a traumatic experience and is not to be trivialised. However the pandemic has created a ‘burning platform’ globally to inspire humanity to change. Human activity is affecting Earth and all that lives there.
During the pandemic I have seen great acts of kindness and it has strengthened communities. In my opinion there is great value in these changes.
In my own small way I have reached out to my community of spiritual friends and through the lockdown we had discussions on the purpose of the virus, how we were feeling personally and provided each other with support and encouragement. If you are feeling a desire to see what others are feeling and thinking take a look at the free book of our collated conversations. It includes wonderful pictures by my friend Irene Gloux depicting hers and humanity’s progression through the pandemic.
Our home, Mother Earth, is in our hands. Together we can make it a good place for our children and grandchildren.
