"I am a person who thinks,              not a number!"




Merry Greetings from here in Ilfracombe

Have you ever wondered how many people refer to you as what's her (or his) name.  They really don't know who you are and I often ask myself why this should be?

I have a theory about this - maybe when they were told your name (either by yourself or someone else) they were not really concentrating on the job in hand or is something else at play?  It is a known fact that things you learnt only recently are actually the hardest to remember, because they have not embedded themselves in your mind.

Also a lot of the time this happens because you were paying close enough attention to the information you were given.  It could be that you were desperately trying to prevent your wine from spilling out of your glass and onto the floor.

Alternatively you may have been thinking about the shopping you need to buy instead of remembering where you put your car.

It is also a fact that if you are feeling tired, stressed or sick you are less likely to remember something you are told. 

So what can be done?

One of the most important factors that contribute to memory issues can be poor diet and lack of exercise.

30 minutes exercise a day, a good diet and regular sleep (which helps your brain to file memories so you can access them later) are all beneficial aids to a better memory.

So there you go - looking after the body and taking regular exercise are beneficial for everyone!

So thank you for taking the time to read this post, have a fantastic week.

Be safe, be careful and above all, remember

06/09/21 My Ideal Day

Hi and welcome I hope that you have had a wonderful weekend - I know that I have!   So I thought having had such a great time I would devise a list of things that make up my ideal day! I wake up naturally and take my time preparing to greet the day ahead. I visit the bathroom, wash and clean teeth and spend 5 minutes in contemplation I dress and make a cup of coffee then  I write both my journal and my gratitude list  I visit my to do list and start working towards completing the things I have to do I clean my cameras ready for the photo shoot(s) that are booked I write any emails that I need to send    and read over my blog notes / planner    and having done this I start writing the new post After I am happy with that it is time to have lunch and then say bye to Alison if she is not coming with me. I (or We) leave the house and choose which vehicle we will use - if it is a country shoot we will probably take the Range Rover but if it is a town / city ...
