Hello Everyone, I invite you to listen to my latest podcast Episode #63, which is on BuzzSprout. For your reference and use, this is Mental Health Awareness Month, and there are many resources available for use in the detailed description. When you find a moment, please listen, and share this information.
A personal note from me to you for December, 2023.
Some of my fondest and favorite memories are the ones where I shared a cup of tea in the evening with my Mother after coming home from work. I worked the late shift. Getting home from riding the subway around 11pm at night. My mother always was waiting up for me. As a young woman, I had no idea that she was making sure that I was in safely from my job as a telephone operator at the then A T & T Phone company on Canal Street in New York City. Imagine! That was 57 years ago.
And then, in the morning when my Mother fixed breakfast for her 5 children; we always had a pot of tea with our breakfast. My Dad was a coffee drinker.
My Mother passed away, suddenly almost 39 years ago. And to this day, each and every one of my siblings still finds comfort in having a cup of tea. It warms our spirits, makes us feel better, and connects us to a special time in our lives when things were not so complicated – yet.
Now, many years and many job and interests later, I find it comforting that as I evolved – now as a certified aromatherapist – Tea is still in my life. It’s intriguing how much it can make a difference in our well-being.
So, even though I usually tell you about the latest exercise class for senior citizens, best healthwise way to keep our minds intact, or at least active, for December – and just in time for the holidays, I am eager and happy to share this link to some very beneficial information about Tea – just for a change of pace. Tea is Home.
I hope your holiday season will be happy and healthy, and filled with time making new memories that will warm your heart and mind. I will take time the rest of this month to savor the gift of family and friends and be happy I am still here to appreciate something good, like a cup of tea 🙂
Thanks for reading my blog. It gives me joy to bring a tip or two that just might help your well-being journey better.
Sincerely, Judith
Look for me in January 2024 All the best in Wellness & Happy Holidays!
