Happy New Year

We would like to wish all InPACT members,  their families and all people out there a most happy new year.

May 2014 present a year of blessings, of positive change, of reflection, and mostly of love to all life.

May your actions for the new year impact positively on the life of others.  And may you be a beacon of hope to those in need.

Love and light.

A very insightful and useful mindfulness website

A friend asked me to add here a link to a very useful and insightful website that provides mindfulness materials and tips for free.

http://www.freemindfulness.org/

It has been created by a fabulous clinical psychologist in the UK.

Enjoy. ♡♡♡

Simple things work best

Sometimes the simple things in life work best in our favour.

Enjoy life today, learn from yesterday and embrace what is to come.
