New Year - New You?

Another year has come and gone. We survived the Black Friday onslaught of ads screaming at us that we absolutely needed more, more, and more. We survived the ensuing weeks of ads and emails reminding us of the ever-waning number of shopping days until Christmas. I'm currently in the process of surviving the hordes of emails letting me know that if I didn't get what I really wanted, they have the solution.

Consequently, in a day or so (if it hasn't already started) we'll be barraged with emails and ads for fitness, healthy eating, gym memberships. "New Year, New You!" they'll promise us.

But as a nation we're suffering from more than just a physical health and fitness problem - we're plagued by spiritual unhealthiness.
