_The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity_ by Julia Cameron
_The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity_ by Julia Cameron I started this book quite some time ago in hopes of getting myself back into writing regularly. It took me some time to get through it as I wanted to be sure that I was ready to make what Cameron said work for…

Not working vs working
Now that I do not have a typical 9-5 job I should suddenly become a night person and be able to stay up late since I have nothing I have to get up early for. Or so I am told. It seems I am not meeting expectations properly by continuing to follow my natural patterns…

_Yoga Anatomy_ by Leslie Kaminoff and Amy Matthews
_Yoga Anatomy_ by Leslie Kaminoff and Amy Matthews Part of my yoga teacher training includes a study of human anatomy as we are dealing with people’s physical make-up.

2nd Article
Remember when I posted about my first paid and published article? Well, the second one is online now! It has a slightly different theme than the first as I do not always want to seem as if I am negative about being Asian and perceptions held of my ethnic background. 😉 It is exciting to…

My History is Worse Than Yours….
Interestingly, I wrote the title of this post last week after a conversation with my friend that I mentioned in my post about perspectives being relative. Yesterday, I went to a book club (yep! and more on that later), where we were discussing the atrocities experienced by the tribes of Congo by the Europeans –…

Meditating
After a barely successful attempt at staying sane last week, I decided that I needed to refocus on ensuring that I get myself sitting each day to meditate. The truth is that I have been out of practice and a little bit lax on the meditating scene lately. While I do try to keep my…

Weekend in Dubai
I was away from my computer and Abu Dhabi this weekend, so I could not really post. It was a nice 24-hr break away from the crazy realities of life these days. When we were in Bali everyone was keen to organize a monthly get-together when we were all back in the UAE to keep…
