So it's back here again in the UK...Lockdown
After the high vibrations of last weeks Covid 19 Special 2.0
I wanted to follow up with another special to keep the positivity going, give you inspiration and remind you of some of the great advice and knowledge shared by my guests.
In this episode I have split it into 3 different sections;
Mental Well Being
Physical Well Being
Money and Business
These three subjects are at the forefront of everyone's mind right now, so I have featured guests from previous episodes, sharing snippets and wisdom on these subjects.
As this is a completely different format from my usual episodes and as I am a Reggae songwriter/singer as well as the creator/host of this show I though I'd feature my own music as the soundtrack to this episode.
If you would like to view any of the music video's to these featured songs and catch up on the full episodes of the featured guests go to www.danieal.co.uk

When I created the Covid-19 Special back in April, I was hoping I would never have to produce a 2nd edition. Unfortunately as of tomorrow here in the UK this is the situation we are faced with.
Reggae Uprising Podcast is all about connecting people of the African diaspora through our collective consciousness and unity.
As my regular listeners will already know, my usual Wednesday weekly shows feature a new guest every week to share their life story, the wisdom of their experiences and there expertise and overstanding, all with a sound track of sweet Reggae music selected by my guest.
If you would like to part of this movement please get in touch via www.danieal.co.uk
This episode is purely Reggae music at it's finest to raise your vibration in defiance of darkness. My intention is to inspire, uplift and awaken you.

The final episode in Black History Month Special series of Reggae Uprising Podcast is focused on The History of Marcus Garvey.
Graduate of African History & Politics and retired lecturer, Maxim Anderson shares some of the history that seems to be missed in most documentaries of Marcus Garvey...life after the USA.
So if your looking for the full story across his lifetime (well as much as we can fit in to this show) this episode is full of enlightenment. Please note that even though this episode is far longer than the usual 1 hour show, Maxim wanted me to let you know that he has so much more to share on Marcus Garvey.
