Occasionally, we all feel unwell. Periodically, we might have a headache, catch a cold, or burn a fever. Sometimes, we break some bones, suffer more severe internal issues or are diagnosed with some devastating illness. When this happens, most of us will seek out a general practitioner, a specialist or a surgeon and, subsequently, receive some medication to help us recover.
In Part 1 of this story, I suggested that people and political parties sit down and share kai together, speak and listen to each other and reach compromises through sharing ideas and understanding – and not use historical agreements to sow discord and division, as the Act Party’s Treaty Referendum Bill is doing.
While walking the dogs today, it dawned on me that A-R-T, are the first three letters in the word ‘artificial’. Intrigued, I looked up the origin of the word and was pleasantly surprised. The first records of the word come from around 1400 and its roots lie ultimately in the Latin artificiālis, meaning ‘belonging to art’, from artificium, meaning ‘skill’. Now that was completely unexpected.
Hello, my loves. Welcome to this six-part series where I am going to bring an easy and attainable action or idea into your world that you can reflect on and implement, so that you can live your life in your most optimal health.
I want to start with why optimal health is crucial for enhancing the quality of our lives. Our well-being + health fundamentally shape our daily experiences, which is why the saying “If you don’t have your health, you have nothing” resonates so deeply. While it’s possible to be surrounded by loving and supportive people even when unwell, enjoying life becomes significantly more challenging without good health.
Doodling has always interested me as a quick, easy and no judgement start to art. I used YouTube as a resource and doodling led into loose urban sketching. A broad definition of loose urban sketching is the ability to observe surroundings and simplify the bustling streets, architecture and people into basic shapes and lines.
