- Try a guided workout or class

- Delegate more chores
Think about who does what- it’s one of the trickier aspects of delegation in the home. Start thinking about people strength and capabilities. Set Goals, remain flexible, create a schedule, be realistic.
- Give yourself a new look
Working on your look is just refreshing as turning over a new leaf. Taking off a few inches can make you feel so much lighter in the new year. A simple new style or hair color could brighten your days.
- Start walking more
Even if you can’t keep track of a new fitness routine, keeping yourself moving on a simple walk around the neighborhood is a must. The Department of Health and Human Services adults should spend as much time moving each day as possible and some physical activity is better than none.
- Head outside without your phone
On a Previous survey, 83% of people told us they lost track of how long they spend on their devices. Its hard to trade screen time for more productive pastimes like walking the dog and coffee with friends.
- Add more citrus to your grocery cart
When you see all those gorgeous in-season grapefruits, oranges, clementine, and pomelos in the produce aisle, grab an armful. citrus can help keep skin looking healthy thanks to vitamin C, which aids in collagen production. people who ate foods high in C had fewer wrinkles and less age-related dry skin than those who didn’t.
- Take more trips with no destination in mind.
This year is going to be all about the road trip — simply getting out into the world around you for quiet time alone in nature. Its a great way to get out for a change of pace. Hit the road and forget social media!
- Make your home more fragrant
Because smell is associated with the parts of the brain that process emotion and store memories, certain aromas can affect mood. Research shows that vanilla makes people more relaxed and joyful (mmm, baking), while peppermint can boost energy and lavender can zap stress.
- Jumpstart a new career.
With a dose of ambition and desire to learn, you might find that you move ahead faster than those with more years of experience who lack the ambition to go above and beyond—they simply go to work, do their job and go home. For others, however, if getting ahead and advancing early in their career is a goal, then showing ambition and taking initiative will help them move mountains and leap over rivers.
Rosca de Reyes
Rosca de Reyes is a traditional bread enjoyed by Christians to commemorate El Día de Los Tres Reyes Magos or Three Kings’ Day. It honors the day the Three Kings visited the newborn Jesus, and officially ends the holiday season in Mexico and in Latin America.
Family and friends gather to celebrate and feasting on ‘Rosca’ is the highlight. The signature soft bread, which is shaped like a ring, is not only sweet, but it represents the king’s crown and God’s eternal love.
Best wishes to our best client for the New Year. May 2023 be a year of prosperity for you.
Martin Luther King Jr
(January 15, 1929-April 4, 1968) was born Michael Luther King, Jr., but later had his name changed to Martin. His grandfather began the family’s long tenure as pastors of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, serving from 1914 to 1931; his father has served from then until the present, and from 1960 until his death Martin Luther acted as co-pastor. Martin Luther attended segregated public schools in Georgia, graduating from high school at the age of fifteen; he received the B. A. degree in 1948 from Morehouse College, a distinguished Negro institution of Atlanta from which both his father and grandfather had graduated.
After three years of theological study at Crozer Theological Seminary in Pennsylvania where he was elected president of a predominantly white senior class, he was awarded the B.D. in 1951. With a fellowship won at Crozer, he enrolled in graduate studies at Boston University, completing his residence for the doctorate in 1953 and receiving the degree in 1955. In Boston he met and married Coretta Scott, a young woman of uncommon intellectual and artistic attainments. Two sons and two daughters were born into the family.
n 1957 he was elected president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, an organization formed to provide new leadership for the now burgeoning civil rights movement. The ideals for this organization he took from Christianity; its operational techniques from Gandhi. In the eleven-year period between 1957 and 1968, King traveled over six million miles and spoke over twenty-five hundred times, appearing wherever there was injustice, protest, and action; and meanwhile he wrote five books as well as numerous articles.
In these years, he led a massive protest in Birmingham, Alabama, that caught the attention of the entire world, providing what he called a coalition of conscience. and inspiring his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”, a manifesto of the Negro revolution; he planned the drives in Alabama for the registration of Negroes as voters; he directed the peaceful march on Washington, D.C., of 250,000 people to whom he delivered his address, “I Have a Dream” is a public speech that was delivered by American civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963, in which he called for civil and economic rights and an end to racism in the United States.
Delivered to over 250,000 civil rights supporters from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., the speech was a defining moment of the civil rights movement and among the most iconic speeches in American history. He was awarded five honorary degrees; was named Man of the Year by Time magazine in 1963; and became not only the symbolic leader of American blacks but also a world figure.
