From meditation and eco-living to breatharianism and making your own natural cosmetics – this section is all about living a mindful lifestyle, in harmony with nature, body and spirit.
It’s been a couple of years now since I’ve moved back to the busy life of a big city and London has not been kind. The weather is cold most of the year, the people on public transport are gloomy and avoid all eye contact and everything is always rushed…or at least it was
Whether you’re travelling, your bedroom is too light to sleep in, you’re into blindfold chess, kinky sex or you are looking for some darkness during meditation or shamanic breathwork session, a blindfold (or sleep mask as they’re sometimes called) definitely comes in handy! I’ve tried many different eye masks, from free ones that you
When you live in London you notice that people mostly moan about 2 things - the weather and the daily commute to and from work. According to the BBC, in 2019 Londoners spend an average of 1 hour and 21 minutes on the commute. In my case, for the last 3 weeks its been
Some of you may have noticed that I haven’t been active on my blog or social media in a while. The reason for this are some major life transformations and realisations that put me into an actual depression for almost a year. This is not an easy post to share, probably the most vulnerable
Before you get up and start rushing through your day, take a moment to breathe and think about how it feels to be underwater. For me personally, being in the water is a very natural thing. Having been a diver since the age of 13, I've been in calm, shallow water, strong currents that
The following is a list of “I will never…” phrases that I actually said out loud. Not only that, I truly believed them to the core of my being. Life has a funny way of throwing things your way that challenge your way of thinking. I began to notice a pattern over the last few
At some point during my late-teens, when everyone I knew went the opposite way, I decided that I will no longer say swear words. I’m not entirely sure what brought that on, maybe it’s because my mother never swore, and her boyfriend, who we were living with during my entire teenage-hood was a very well-manered
Just realised that I haven’t blogged anything in a while, been travelling in India and Nepal for the last 1.5 months, but I found this blog that I wrote a little while back so I had a minute to post it today as I think that the subject is a very important one, so
This is a very random (but important!) post just to tell you that I think you should let go and get crazy tonight!! :) Every day of our lives we try to behave. We hold back our feelings or desires either because we are afraid of people judging us or because it may not
If you have ever been to a group meditation, a spiritual event or any form of mindful workshop, you will no doubt have heard people saying that changes in our lives start happening after you begin loving yourself unconditionally. By doing so, you open yourself to a whole new world of possibilities, and this
If any of you have ever been to Bali, you have probably heard of the Green School. I was lucky enough to organise a Yoga for Kids teachers training at the Green School not too long ago and would like to write about my experience of the area (yeah this post is way overdue!). It’s
Just a massage or something more - here's a brief introduction to myofascial release therapy. If you haven’t heard of myofascial release therapy, then you’ve really been missing out! Many of us have suffered from some form of pain or discomfort in the body, whether it be back pain, headaches or constipation, but in the
We lost one of our dogs, Pontik, this morning. Every body was in tears, frantically searching all the streets and putting up posters. I had a huge food order today as well, which I really wanted to do well, and I’ve barely slept all night, so to say I was stressed is an understatement.
I recently went to look for my first ever website and found my first ever blog! I decided to re-post it here with a few edits, hope you enjoy it. How far away is God? Ever sat at the base of your bed and begged for God to show himself to you (or spirit,
Away from "civilisation" and loving it! Many of you will know that on December 22nd 2012 (yes, the day after the world was supposed to end) I quit my job in London and moved to Bali for a year. Nothing was planned and I was living day by day, trusting that the Universe would
Let's talk about constipation - sadly, it is way too common these days and most people find it embarrassing to talk about, but we really should! Ideally you should be going number two at least once a day. In my personal opinion, if you are eating well, then you shouldn't have to deal with
As much as we would like our life to be perfect, sometimes we need to deal with bumps along the road. Be that news of death, or maybe you have been diagnosed with an illness, or even just stress at work or at home. There are many scenarios, but they all require a similar
For a few years now I have been on a mission to find the best way of washing my hair naturally without using chemical-laced shampoos. I’ve gone over several recipes and put the strangest things in my hair, from a mixture of flour and herbs to eggs and beer. I was too lazy to write
If you are a woman, there is a good chance that you have experienced the lovely symptoms of PMS at least once in your life. From bloating, to mood swings to unbearable headaches, pre menstrual syndrome is thought to be one of those things that you just have to "bear with" - but this
