It’s big business like Palmer and Rhinehardt that are running the show and we’re all just goose-stepping along behind them

Despicable. Liberal & Labor are in lockstep, giving our planet the middle finger.

Remember this when Albanese talks about renewables tonight.

Oh goodness, such a simple technique for overcoming hesitation, fear, procrastination, anxiety and for trusting yourself enough to take action.

Another one you might have seen before - How to protect yourself from possible Thyroid Cancer when having X-rays and mammograms

On Wednesday, Dr. Oz had a show on the fastest growing cancer in women, Thyroid cancer. It was a very interesting program and he mentioned that The increase could possibly be related to the use of dental x-rays and mammograms.

He demonstrated that on the apron the dentist puts on you for
Your dental x-rays there is a little flap that can be lifted up and wrapped Around your neck. Many dentists don't bother to use it.

Also, there is Something called a "thyroid guard" for use during mammograms.

By coincidence, I had my yearly mammogram yesterday. I felt a little Silly, but I asked about the guard for the thyroid guard and sure enough, the technician had one In a drawer. I asked why it wasn't routinely used.
Answer: "I don't know. You have to ask for it." Well, if I hadn't seen the show, how would I have known to ask?

Please remember to ask for "Thyroid Guard" when you go for Dental X-ray or Mammogram.

You might have seen this message circulating before about what to do if you have symptoms of a heart attack when you are on your own:

Possible symptoms of heart attack:
severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw.

HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!

Mercury retrograde again until Jan 9 and then the shadow for two weeks after. Here is the link to my post last year about how to handle this tricky period. Go slow, especially when travelling, go back over stuff, especially old plans and ideas and rework them for the coming new year.

I am moving to Donnybrook next month for work and I am not sure at this stage how I am going to continue with my wellbeing business but I will probably continue on Facebook, from home and at the Donnybrook and Boyanup markets.

Its the year of the Rooster starting January 28, much less chaotic than the Monkey year of 2016 and a great year for planning, being productive and putting yourself out there. Make sure to take some time to set your plans for next year so that you can make the most of the many opportunities that present themselves. Planning is supported by the Rooster year, and goodness knows there was little opportunity to plan in the Monkey year we've just had, so make the most of it!

It is also a #1 year for the planet in Numerology so that is great for new beginnings. Many things were ended or left behind in 2016, so we can look forward to a new year with bold beginnings and adventures.

All in all 2017 will be a great year to work hard, act on your ideas, put yourself out there, take advantage of opportunities and respond to changes. If you can do that you will be rewarded with success and happiness. But still a few days left of this year to let go of any baggage that might hold you back in 2017. Have a great new year!

Blessings Victoria

Hello everyone, sorry I have been out of action for a while but I have been moving house, applying for a scholarship, and re-evaluating a few things in my life. I have decided to give up my rooms behind Sew Gentle Era from the beginning of April and work from home but I will be taking some time out to regroup and refocus. I have a few too many balls in the air and need to make some decisions about my priorities.

This is a nine year, a year of celebration of things that are working as well as a year for leaving behind things that no longer serve, so it's a good time for me to let go and move on. As well, Jupiter is in Virgo for much of the year so it's an ideal time to focus on health, order and boundaries and/or get a pet. I am looking forward to getting a dog and some chooks at our new place and having the time and space to take care of my health, which is a little frazzled to say the least :).

Love to hear what you folks are up to and how your year is travelling, especially in the area of health and wellbeing.

Hugs and Blessings,
Victoria
