The wonder of the hour "Every dawn brings new opportunities to create something wonderful"

The morning wakes and I shake my body into life, darkness lifts like a blanket revealing light. I move slowly one step at a time and my breath stirs thoughts into old familiar rhymes. The heaviness in me is like a weight too much to hold. I keep moving, hoping lightness deep inside is ready to unfold. The last of the winter leaves lay scattered beneath my feet, leaving trails of the past impossible to meet. My eyes gently lift to witness the wonder of the hour, and my mind reaches out from its watchful tower. Armaments are lowered and defences pulled away, at least for now I see the beauty of the day.

6 Steps to Enrichment


  1. Create positive energy by opening your mind and eyes and thinking about the feelings and well-being of those closest to you and asking how you can improve their lives because a sense of security enhances creativity
  2. Inspire clarity of intention by listening to your thoughts and thinking about what is important and asking what is needed because inspiration enhances good choices
  3. Generate considered action by feeling the earth and air around you and thinking about moving in harmony with the elements and asking which is the right direction because the stability of context (knowing where you are) enhances positive action
  4. Motivate sustainable development by smelling the environment and thinking about your experiences and asking what has been learned because motivation enhances improvement
  5. Appraise measured performance by tasting the atmosphere and thinking about your actions by measuring your progress because appraisal enhances achievement
  6. Appreciate universal integrity by using all your senses to take an overview and think about why your actions are important and how they may affect others because a sense of purpose and belonging enriches well-being
