“Life as Light, in God, through goodness come to us, now. Lighting our days, and making clear the path for us to trod.
Moving from the dark of winter towards the brightness of Spring, warm our hearts, still our fears, and delivers us from worry, hatred, blame, deceit, and many threatening dangers; which, oftentimes blight our joy, hinder our peace, and disturb our rest.
As the new month of March begins, and planetary forces prepare to endorse environmental changes on our world;
Life as Light, ready us too, by stirring a deeper, keener awareness of what is possible, so that with open hearts and ready mind, allow your kindness, love, and light, to fill our days and nights.
Let your brightness guide and lead, to heights of joy, and, unending realms of peace, till souls truly satisfied, in stillness rests.
As we enter the New Year, fresh hopes, opportunities, possibilities lies ahead for each of us. It is how we approach each day that makes a year great, or I should say, makes a great year.
So, in the upcoming days, weeks and months, I am suggesting that you reflect this thought, perhaps jotting them down somewhere for easy access, and then reciting them out aloud each day. “I will approach all my days this year with hope and joy. I will try my best to see the good in everything and everyone. I am responsible for my own happiness, and I endeavour to do so. I choose gratitude over complaining, and peace over worry. “
Now, if you have just read the paragraph above, or better still, if you did as it suggested and owned the words as your own truth or wishes, then, I can assure you that you are already on route to a great year ahead!
I wish you Wellnessology, and success in all you do this year. May your days be ecstatic with hope. And each week filled to bursting with amazing testimonials, so that by the time the year comes to an end, you will be able to join me in the resounding joy-filled acclamation – “2023 has been a fabulous year for me!”
Namaste.

**PEACEMAKES PATROLS upcoming Schedules soon to be announced!!
To Thee we ascribe thanks and praise for this and all our days past and to come. As we enjoy the festivities, gifts, and celebrations around this season of cheer, whist we are very grateful, we are also mindful that there are those who are lonely, sad, broken, hungry, facing hardships and sufferings in various ways; for these we pay strength and hope, love, deliverance, provision, and peace.
We give thanks that it is so and so it is! Amen and amen.
PEACEMAKERS City Safety Patrollers will be out and about on the streets of Bristol on a night known as Guy Fawkes Night or BonFire Night in Bristol, around the Royatte Hill, Gordon Road and Whitehall areas.
The Rose Green & Bristol West Indian Phoenix Cricket Club will be running a Family Fireworks Display Extravaganza on their grounds, staring at 4pm through to 10pm.
Over the years there has been negligent fireworks crimes on Bonfire night where young people loiter the streets throwing fire works at each other or at passing cars. However, in recent years there has been fewer reports of these types of activities, with less unorganised fireworks gatherings around the city.
Rev Palmer says she hopes the Patrols prayer presence, and bright High-Viz Jackets, will help to keep the peace, and hopefully ward off ruckus pranksters.
The Patrollers will gather for prayer across from the Queen’s Head Pub at the top of Royatte Hill at 7pm, before moving along Royatte Hill towards the Fishponds Trading Estates, Gordon Road, and into Whitehall. For more information please Email: peacemakersprayerpatrol@gmail.com
A Prayer for November
God our light
Shining beams of love,
Fill hearts and minds.
Illumine homes and streets
Alleyways and lanes,
And brighten the paths we thread.
Protect the weak and innocent
With love and light,
And for Goodness sake
Let all be safe. Amen.

October, wetter cooler days and nights, yet a time we get to once again behold the beautiful fall of multi-coloured autumn leaves on the ground.
October tenth month of the year, comes from an old Latin word Octo which literally translates eight, was the eighth month in the old calendar of Romulus c. … 750 BC. It was also called Winterfylleth by the Saxons, meaning fullness of winter, as it sets us up in preparation for the colder, darker months ahead. Colours associated with October are opal and tourmaline.
Metaphysically October is a time for spirit soul body balance, to set a higher, more conscious intention, on how we wish to show up and express on the planet, and within the sphere of our day to day experiences.
