      <image:title>Blog - Keep Learning: Mental Health awareness week 2023 - One of my goals this year was to learn how to do a half halo braid in my hair.</image:title>
      <image:caption>I can only do it on one side, one way, and my tongue needs to be out while I’m doing it. However the satisfaction while learning this and now having the new skill has been enormous. Perhaps next year I might learn to do the other side too so I can go for a full halo effect!</image:caption>
