Corona Virus: Awareness Pandemic

Have you noticed how the awareness of people and various topics have been escalated lately during this Covid-19 Virus? There is nothing wrong with it. I am all for awareness. But, I was scrolling through my Instagram feed today and noticed a story by Dr Ade' van Heerden and it was about the awareness of doctors mental health. Again, there is nothing wrong with this. This can be perceived in many different ways and as a reflector, I know because we tend to think of every angle of a situation and consider every outcome. One thing really stood out to me though. When do the awareness programs of so many different things stop before we realize that we are all equal? We all deserve the same treatment. No one is better than anyone and no one is less than anyone. We are all human. I felt triggered to write this because of all of the stuff that is happening in the world and I was watching the videos of George Floyd's cruel death. It is sad.. and I did not really think that my opinion mattered but one more white person standing up is important.. We are all important, and no I am not one of those people who say all lives matter in this time but how easy is it to slip into the trap of thinking your voice does not matter? BOOM more awareness. 
That much being said, that is my opinion and I hope to inspire someone to speak up too.

#myopinionmatters .. (no not in a vain way.. but I hope people are inspired to share their opinions)

My hope is also that my blog becomes a platform to inspire others and creates an environment that people feel good in and enjoy reading my posts.

Advice!!

So.. I am thinking of selling my Matric dance dress but I am stuck on making a final decision! I have weighed out the "Why's" and "Why NOT'S" down below. This is why I want to sell it : #1 I don't think I am ever going to wear it again #2 I can make some money from it #3 It is just chilling in my room.

What is Somatology?

Somatology is the study of the body and its functions. We can use our background knowledge to treat our clients holistically, mind, body and soul through different treatments( from facials to body care treatments) focusing on in salon treatment, home care advice on exercise, nutrition and products!  We are not able to cure any diseases but we can work alongside doctors to help treat our clients in the best way possible. We are not only concerned with what goes on inside the body but can provide you with superficial treatments as such as make-up, waxing, manicures and pedicures. The subjects I study include Anatomy and Physiology, Nutrition as well as treatment and therapies such as Aromatherapy and Reflexology( which I LOVE). It is very exciting and always keeps me on my toes.  However, at the moment I am studying from home due to the lock-down in South Africa. We would normally go into class all week and have practical classes for three out of  five days. We practice on ...
