Some days, I feel like I can take on the world—racing through to-do lists, making things happen, standing strong against every challenge. But then, there are days like these. Days when the weight of everything settles deep in my bones, when even the simplest tasks feel impossible. For the last three days, all I’ve wanted … Continue reading Wintering

Space
Our living space mirrors our inner space While my mother likes to fill every corner of our living space with things, I find consolation in a wide clean space. I cherish the clean countertop, clean tables and neat clothes cupboards. Admittedly I am not always like this, no... This shift happens slowly. I did have … Continue reading Space
Right
Ah, but what could go right my dear? Everything! Tonight I could sleep well with an ideal composition of deep sleep, light sleep and REM. Tomorrow I will wake up earlier than usual, then I'll do the yoga stretches, and perhaps sleep a little more at the savasana moment- I always sleep at the savasana … Continue reading Right

You dance it. You march it. You vote it. You do everything about it. You talk it. … Continue reading Angry
Ordinary
How fortunate I am, to be able to spend my Sunday time amongst my favorite humans. I appreciate this ordinary day, the day where I do the house chores and take a short nap. At the end of the day, I write and perhaps do some yin yoga to stretch my body before I go … Continue reading Ordinary

Hello March, welcome! I believe you bring many fortunate days onto the table. My friends from the four seasons say that March is the time of bloom and renewal - spring is here! They exclaim.

Alone
I never knew I would cherish this kind of time, being alone in a coffee shop, just me and my thoughts.. I was always planning to spend this quiet time without scrolling my phone but..
