I Told You I Was Trouble: Amy Winehouse Live From London
see relatedThursday and Friday...
I did warn you I'd be crap this week....traveling so unpredicatable....
Thursday's challenge (which can also be completed Friday since its my fault it's posted so late)....go out of your way to learn something new today....read about something going on in the world....read about the benefits of vegan diets.....read about the life of someone you admire.....something you have to make the effort to find and expand your mind.....
Friday's challenge.....do something that makes you feel and appreciate being alive....like sitting by the ocean....or something invigorating, exhilarating.....it doesn't have to be huge.....just makes you experience the fact that you are alive and there are bonuses and benefits to that.....
Both 5 points....

Jet lag....[edit]
Arrived safely in London after a looong journey....will try and get the points posted and such today but no promises coz not sure how long my body will allow me to stay awake....
The challenge for tomorrow is to meditate for at least 20 minutes preferably more....if you would prefer a guided meditation look on iTunes podcasts or there are some knocking around on YouTube and other places on the internet....
I will endeavour to post the challenges for the rest of the week as a minimum today....I have my trusty challenge notepad with me so as I head off to get the tube I shall be pondering and come up with them.....
Hope you are all doing well....I will post a new video soon too
