CHANGE YOUR MINDSET – CHANGE YOUR LIFE.

Hip Hip Hooray I’m on my way…to another fabulous day!!

O.K. BB buddies, before you think I’m on some kind of magic mushroom trip – Nopes! The secret lies within – it always has. In recent years, I’ve come to realize just how powerful our minds are – for good and for bad. The way we think of ourselves and others, frequently leaves plenty of room for improvement. Would you agree?

Normally, at this time of the year, I would tell myself I hate January, I had eaten and spent with wild abandon over Christmas, and taking down the decorations wasn’t half as much fun!! The weather is always freezing cold and bleak and I miss my kiddos!! Enough reasons to say January and me are most incompatible!!

This year, I decided to change the narrative, thanks to the sage advice from friendly Buddhist monks and of course daily prayer, which in itself is a form of meditation. I set myself 3 daily affirmations, which you will see from my earlier blog, Happy New Year 2026 – Take Charge Like a Raging Bull!! Maybe I’m my own best customer, but I sure am finding those daily affirmations very helpful indeed.

January 2026, so far, has been my happiest to-date. To help me get through it with relative ease – let me re-phrase – To help me THRIVE and FLOURISH and actually ENJOY January – here’s what I did:

3 DAILY AFFIRMATIONS

I CHOSE HAPPY YELLOW and ORANGE AS MY COLOURS FOR THE MONTH

DAILY JOLT OF LIGHT FROM MY OMNILUX FACIAL MASK

DAILY PRAYER TO CENTRE ME FOR THE DAY

DAILY 10-12,000 STEPS

DAILY VITAMINS, ADDING GRANULATED BEETS TO THE MAGIC MIX!!

JOURNALLING

PICK A WORD FOR 2026 – MINE WAS THE WORD ‘FLOURISH’

PLAN A FUN EVENT WITH FRIENDS FOR EACH MONTH

PLAN A TRIP, SO YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO


Hopefully my friends, some, or all of the above may help you get through those ‘moments’ we all have.

With Love,

Patricia and Coco xo
