My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • Day 4 – chemical free with the help of a break from the grey and falling spit from the sky. Yesterday was foggy both in my mind and in the weather. It continues to get colder day-by-day, but with the sun in the sky my heart warms today. It is not clear whether it is the lifting of the fog in my head or the fall climate that is affecting me, but really…

  • Well, this week turned out a little bit better than last. I can definitely feel the difference, so that is good news! 😀 Tuesday (Oct 10) Meditation for 30minutes Vjnana Manual Sunday practice (40mins) Wednesday (Oct 11) Mindfulness Reading for 20minutes Thursday (Oct 12) Meditation for 12minutes Free practice (20mins) Friday (Oct 13) Meditation for 26minutes Vjnana Manual Friday practice (34mins) ~T 😀

  • As I posted about a week ago, I am still writing and am currently work on series on spiritual well-being. 🙏🏽 To ensure that I am writing from a place of truth rather than theory, I decided that it was time to return more seriously to my own practice. After my training finished, I sort of took a long break to focus on other aspects of my life (of which I am still…

  • There’s a lovely breeze blowing with a light crisp autumn chill that refreshes rather than cools the mind. I sit with a warm cup of coffee made fresh this morning by the routine of a family that is not mine and yet indeed is. The sounds of the day begin to move faster as the world around awakens ready to trudge through the greyness that no one finds joyful. Yet between the shades…

  • Well, it has indeed been a while since I last posted This Week’s Workouts as I have been rather sporadic in my workout routine. Also, not having a gym makes it more challenging. Although I do tend to walk quite a bit every day, this maintains my weight but does not do much for tone or my idea of ‘fitness’. Therefore, as I set out to do early last week, I have gone…

  • It has now been two months since we left the desert and all that life there encompassed. The last year or so proved to be the most challenging of times because living outside of the bubble, that most expats survive in to convince themselves that being there is worthwhile, causes your eyes to open and never be shut again. While we may have read stories in the papers or heard them from third,…

  • Although I have been quiet here with my up and down pattern of writing or promising to write regularly again, I did manage to get an article written last month for April Magazine. This is the beginning of a series that I will be writing on Spiritual Wellbeing. In some ways it is rather ironic given my life has gone topsy-turvy lately, but then again perhaps it is just the perspective I need…

  • These days we are so into being ‘busy’ and complain about how we must surely be more ‘tired’ and ‘stressed’ than everyone else. In competing for the worst life situation, we create personalities that never learn how to relax and rest. As an introvert, this is nearly impossible to maintain. Luckily, being regularly considered odd and somewhat ‘eccentric’ provides me the luxury of using it to my advantage. This means that I work…

  • Well, the best laid plans as they say…. I have not quite gotten myself into the right routine just yet. Every time I think that I have a handle on things, something spins me around to distract me from my plans. It seems that the meds are still requiring a bit to get used to. In fact, I have considered going off of them already, but feel that perhaps three months is not…

  • Well, the month has passed by rather quickly. I have found a makeshift sense of routine thanks to the world of cafes and my BFF. Without wifi at home I have to make do with wherever I can find free options. 😉 After spending a number of days sleeping and allowing my brain some peace, I have returned to the ‘adult’ world of getting up at reasonable hours and focusing more on work.…
