YogaRave

I don’t get it why some people think of Yoga as a very strict or boring thing. It’s like you expect to hear sound of raindrops, sound of chirping love birds or maybe a chime or gong in the background every time someone says Yoga.

Yoga (gong).
Yoga (gong).
Yoga (chirp chirp).
Yoga (ohm….)

Well, for most parts, Yoga is very relaxing so, I don’t really blame people for thinking that it is a lame ass excuse for ‘exercise’. Some might even think Yoga should be a religion…I have to disagree on this front.

I have been a long-time fan of Tara Stiles, the so-called Yoga rebel, who believes that Yoga is not strict regimen. There is literally no right way or wrong way to do things and the most important thing to remember when ‘stretching your body and mind’ is to have a little bit of fun. The only rule is to listen to your body. Be flexible not just in your body but also your mind.

What I do is if it hurts, I ask myself ‘Am I pushing this too far?’ or when I am doing a fold, I ask ‘Can I go just a teeny wee bit further, let’s see’. SHIT, I CAN!

Basically, we live in a world whereby we have conform to the norm (yeah right, nu-uh, not me) and Yoga is fantastic because it lets you loose and you connect to everything and everyone and become just one. So, Yoga is not just about being physically stretched but your emotions and spirits starts stretching outwards and reaching out too.

I don’t know what this whole YogaRave is all about that is sweeping through many large cities in the United States but it sounds seriously, dead seriously, fun! It says that that it is a new concept whereby it is one big party where people have fun when they respond to stimulating music, yoga and meditation. Sounds good to me.

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

At Camp 5, 1 Utama: Kids' Rescue Mission

The kids had a wonderfully exciting day today. Now, this is as extreme as this mother is going to get. Mommy goes Paintball, kids go mountain-climbing...I think I've fulfilled the criteria of offering my kids a fun and exciting life as a kid. :-) It was one of their friends' birthday party and they're a little bored of KidzSports...that's for BABIES, anyway, they say. So, off to Camp 5 then, says the birthday boy's mother. Camp 5 in 1 Utama is located near Neways Karaoke, for those who have never been there before. It's a neat little corner tucked up on the roof of the massive shopping complex. Anyway, the kids had tons of fun although a little apprhensive when they saw how high the 'rock' was. It's actually quite neat and if I didn't feel like throwing up whenever up on higher grounds, I would have wanted to try it as well. The highlight of this party came in the form of a rescue mission. As we all know, when one is frighte...

When will Mariah stop flashing her boobs????

Mariah used to be my favourite singer of all time because she's got this amazing gift in the form of a voice that can go ANYWHERE but why oh why is she so obssessed with flashing those enormous peaks of hers everywhere...and why is it that all her songs contain sexual innuendos....touch my body is one of them. I mean, I love the song, I love the tune, I love the beat but PLEASE , Mariah, PLEASE .....why can't you be decent for once? I clicked to watch because I like the song and spent a couple of minutes crossing my fingers that she won't be flashing anything (FAT CHANCE!) in the video. But nope....no such luck. In fact, with a song like that, she goes even further over the top. Where got people answer the door in this type of clothing wan?? Is she for real??? I mean, in this video, she calls a technician up to fix her computer and she answers the foor LIKE THAT ??? Aish.... But the video was entertaining in a sense because the lam-chue-kok (male lead) is this geeky,...
