My mother Margaret, we now know, has Alzheimer's and has had some mini strokes. She has emphysema and is quite frail and thin. As a result she's no longer able to stay in her flat. Getting to this stage has been an uphill battle. Lots of wonderful services were instigated to help her stay at home but to no avail. Getting her sorted has been almost a full time job. And Joan, her lovely friend who is like my second mother, is as sharp as a tack but her body is truly failing her. Getting her the assistance she needed, too, was plenty of work. Their age and needs were major factors in my moving from Melbourne to Adelaide one year ago.
The good news is that I am ready to set up my private practice in Adelaide and expect to really enjoy the face to face connection with clients who I may be able to help around their issues with eating, weight and emotions. And I'm really looking forward to blogging more and posting more fun and thought-provoking stuff at my Facebook page - Eat, Think and be Merry.
So back to this new year - 2015. What do you want to achieve? How will you do it? When will you know you've reached your goal? What's the time frame?
The vast majority of New Year's resolutions are forgotten within two weeks - don't let that be you this year. I have some help for you, courtesy of the great people at Pritikin (www.pritikin.com). They have some fantastic suggestions with ways to achieve them, such as:
1. Write your goals down… in detail. List both Health Goals and Life Goals.
