THINK

 

OPEN your eyes and see what is going on around you.

 

OPEN your mouth and speak about what is happening in South Africa.

 

People will not THINK you are HIV Positive if you talk about HIV they will thank you for taking the trouble to discuss and share any any information you have.

 

At the same time you will be assisting in removing the #Stigma & #Discrimination that still exists.

I speak OUT as an HIV Positive person, will you speak UP for others?

Sharing a Healthy Lifestyle – Write Now

Once upon a while ago………….

 

 

As an HIV positive individual I had to look at ways to enhance my well-being.

 

 

Writing is an outlet to document my thoughts and share with those needing reassurance.

 

 

By authoring a book with the title, The Deadly Seducer I managed to incorporate a positive attitude, healthy foods and the experience of dealing with the effects of AIDS that I acquired, namely TB meningitis, pneumonia, shingles, two strokes and Cancer (Angioimmunoblasticlymphadenopathy) which has given me insight into constructive ways to counsel, mentor and live a healthy lifestyle through educating myself and followed up by sharing the same values with others.

 

 

Having lived through the numerous health challenges puts me in a fairly unique position to add value to any educational information provided.

 

 

I have since written various articles which have been posted to a number of health and education websites, local magazines and a range of newspapers

 

 

Later I developed a training manual on some of the latest trends on HIV and being an avid social media participant have posted educational information on a regular basis.

 

 

I would like to deliver ongoing education through the media on a weekly/monthly basis as this will encourage conversations around health and wellness as well as the ongoing HIV situation in South Africa.

 

 

I see this as an exercise to generate an income for the Non-Profit Organisation I founded as the sponsorship and fundraising is non-existent and there are individuals who are unable to afford counselling and healthy lifestyle guidelines.

 

Contact me if this is of interest to you and falls in line with your newspaper, magazine or online presence.

SOUTH AFRICA, we are doing something wrong!

On 23 January, 2015, in Health and Wellness, Training, by Cindy Pivacic

Planning a Wellness Day?

Or

Require HIV Training/Awareness for staff?

You may like to consider the following:

 

Over 400 000 new HIV infections occurring in 2012, South Africa ranks first in HIV incidence in the world.

 

The proportion of South Africans infected with HIV has increased from 10.6% in 2008 to 12.2% in 2012.

 

The total number of infected South Africans now stands at 6.4-million; 1.2-million more than in 2008. (Those that have tested and we know of).

 

1000 – New infections daily.

 

Take responsibility and do your bit for the future of South Africa
