Last year, I wanted to achieve a deeper forward bend. So I try to touch my toes daily. This year, one of the many things I want to do is the wheel pose which is particularly difficult for me (Read: Bending By The Beach). So I arch my back and straighten my hands everyday….though it …
Both Businessweek and Time featured Taylor Swift as their cover stories. He told me they might interest me so I grabbed the copies to read. The words my eyes so fervently ingested inspired me; we share the same idols for the same reasons – Olivia Benson in Law & Order for her strength and Ina …
This year I plan to try to exercise every single day. How? Think of it as play! Now that I’ve found two sports that I enjoy, it’s not too hard. Today I fooled around in the pool (with a GoPro) and hopped about the yoga mat. It feels so good to be active! If you …
One of my resolution this year is to do a perfect forward bend (Uttanasana). What do I mean by perfect? Well, it means having my head on my knees and palms on the floor. Due to prolong sitting infront of the computer, I’m troubled with tight hamstring and could barely touch the ground with my …
playing and striking the dancer pose on bed!I think as we grow up, we forget how to play and that anywhere can be our playground. =:)
Starting the first morning of the month dancing and doing yoga stunts on my exercise mat while listening to Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off” and “Mean”. Oh, it’s so good to have so much energy!

Preparing a romantic and healthy lunch for two just because you feel like it I tried a new recipe (boiled eggs with tamarind sauce) and set everything up within an hour. Next round, it should take about half an hour. That’s my new goal – combining healthy food which can be completed within 30 minutes! =:)
I came from a family who enjoy fruits in any shape or form. I used to experiment with different fruit smoothie. A favourite of mine is anything with dragon fruit because it’s pink and we can pretend to be vampires! Today, my family joined me at work to make my sister’s new favourite drink: watermelon yoghurt …
The last few weeks, I was in a trance-like state. I have been working like a robot, as soon as I wake-up and until I had no choice but to sleep. Eating is for survival and sleeping is to regain energy to work. Then I remember how JewelPie started; I’m prone to overworking and needed a work-life …
