Congruency - are your goals aligned to your values?

[Alan Hughes] I was excited to go to the Townhouse Hotel last night to listen to Dr John Demartini's talk on "Successfully Setting and Achieving Goals". As a life coach, I have presented several talks on the same subject, so I was very curious to see how this world-renowned expert would go about it. Energetically, passionately and with humour, was how he shared his wisdom with more than 200 people who gathered to listen to him.

Alan Hughes commented on Your quick health fix for the New Year
While drinking lots of pure water is good for you, always drinking it with ice is NOT! Sure if you are hot and want to cool down, enjoy a cold drink. BUT ice cold anything puts a strain on you digestion. Your system has to first heat whatever you swallow to body temperature, before it can digest it. While this may burn a few calories (a whole kilo a year?), it is hardly worth the constant strain on your tummy for that minor gain. Also a really good idea to avoid drinking for a while after eating, as the drink will wash away the digestive juices which your stomach is using to break up the food. Big YES to exercising outdoors :)

Looking Good at the CTICC

[Alan Hughes] What better way to spend a drizzly, windy, Cape Town "Spring" Sunday, than to go to explore the "Look & Feel Good Expo", indoors at the CTICC? While it may have been grey and damp outside, it was warm, colourful and sparkly inside, with a cacophony of traders vying for attention and business.

I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change

[Alan Hughes] For a great evening's entertainment, grab your "better half" and head out to the Kalk Bay Theatre to enjoy I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change. This show is a powerful, comical, musical rollercoaster ride through the various stages of intimate relationships. All the way from the nervous agony of preparing for your first date, through marriage with kids, to the golden oldies hooking up in a funeral parlour.

Spandau Ballet and Alphaville, greatest of the 80s?

[Alan Hughes] I recently had the opportunity to go to see Spandau Ballet and Alphaville at the Grand West Arena. When I arrived, DJs from Heart 104.9 FM were playing great hits from the 1980s and warming up the crowd with humourous banter. They hailed these two bands as being the greatest of the 80s, which seemed a little over the top. Maybe they are the best bands of the 80s who are still making music - and who are prepared to include South Africa in their tour?

Get your teeth into this

[Alan Hughes] What an awesome performance, what stage presence! From the moment the lights came on, till they faded to rousing applause, Andrew Buckland kept the entire audience completely captivated. Intense, clever, extreme, energetic, funny and disturbing - this lone figure on an empty black stage took us on a journey that I won't forget in a hurry.

Cricket at it's most entertaining

[Alan Hughes] Nicholas Ellenbogen's “Slips” is a definite winner. Although set at Newlands Cricket Ground, the play is about people and cultures, and no real sports knowledge is needed to enjoy the humour, which should appeal to all - especially South Africans.

Jesse Clegg rocks out at Kirstenbosch

[Alan Hughes] Sunday found me back at Kirstenbosch gardens to enjoy another of Old Mutual's Summer Sunset Concerts. This time it was the Jesse Clegg's turn to entertain us. It was a hot sunny afternoon, with the usual crowds of picnickers punctuated with sun umbrellas.
