This is really the season to look back over the last 12 months and take stock.  Firstly of what has happened to us and the effects we may still be feeling – as we age, there are the illnesses that take a bit longer to shift.  I had the most awful chesty cough, followed by a cold, leading up to Christmas.  Despite much care with hygiene and wrapping myself up warmly when going out for my now more routine walks, I still succumbed.   My task now, having taken stock, is to see where I can safeguard or future proof myself for the coming months.

I have resolved to do my paid work, ie. articles and writing, in the morning only and to stop absolutely at noon.  Take a light lunch, clear up, and then march forth for a short, brisk walk.  This will really help my body, my mind, and my skin.  All very free to achieve!
