New Year's Around the World!

It’s New Year’s Eve and where are you? Partying heartily is the norm as we usher in the next year, yet it’s important to be safe while having a good time. In Health Matters, Heather Brittany puts on her party hat to help you enjoy the festivities without the problems. After the hoopla of the holidays and the extravagance of a New Year’s celebration, January demands reflection, re-interpretation, and reinvention. Goddess Gardener, Cynthia Brian, encourages taking a break in January to revel in relaxation with her easy guide. January 1 represents the fresh start of a new year after a period of remembrance of the passing year. At the strike of midnight, fireworks explode, the ball drops in Times Square, people toast with champagne and kiss one another. The Romans dedicated New Year’s to Janus, the god of gates, doors, and new beginnings but do you know the rest of the story? Cynthia Brian takes us on a journey of the planet with New Year’s around the world.
