TIP: These 3 parts of your body need daily sunscreen application too!

January 20, 2020 Paris B 3 Comments

Something funny-tragic happened to me a few weeks ago.

I had fallen asleep on the couch in the middle of the day, with the curtains opened a crack. The sun was streaming in, it was an abysmally hot and sultry day, and I was tired.

I woke up an hour later, feeling refreshed.

But when I looked in the mirror, I got a shock of my life! My neck and chest were an angry red!

HOW?! Who gets sunburnt while lying in the middle of their living room, having a nap? Me, that’s who 😛

So I thought I’d share with you some tips on where else, aside from your face, needs daily sunscreen application – you may or may not be already doing it! 😛

Unveiling love for family and friends with 4 Chinese New Year Traditions updated with a modern twist

Chinese New Year, or also commonly referred to as the Lunar New Year is a festival celebrated by Asian communities the world over. As may be expected, it is one steeped in cultural tradition.

To herald a new spring, most of us perform all sorts of activities such as wearing bright colours, eating dishes that represent prosperity and abundance, and staying up late into the night to catch up with family and friends.

But aside from these cultural norms, families may have their own little traditions as well! Let me share some of mine with you 🙂

2020 Life Mantra: Be Conscious

January 2, 2020 Paris B 6 Comments

Are you one to set new year resolutions? I haven’t, for many years. Well, actually I have. I resolve to not make new year resolutions LOL!

But what I’ve done in recent years, is to set a life mantra for the year. A little mantra that I hold on to, and try to stick to for the year. Call it a resolution if you wish, but I have found it to be far more effective than just making a whole list of resolutions that I break at the first opportunity.

For 2020, my life mantra shall be this – Be Conscious.

Auld Lang Syne to another year and reflecting on the end of a decade

December 23, 2019 Paris B 12 Comments

Hello friends,

My year-end missive is a little early this year, I realize. But it comes at a time when many of us are taking time off for ourselves and winding down for the year.

This year, I’m taking that time for myself too.

I’ve noticed that people are saying that this year is the end of a decade (2009-2019) and that the New Year brings us into a new decade. While I don’t subscribe to that theory (I consider 2020 the end of the decade because I’m contrary like that 😛 ) I couldn’t help thinking that I might embrace it this time.

I’ve had a fairly challenging year, and decade, and truth be told, it hasn’t been what I expected it to be. If I were to sum my 2019 up in a word, it would be… hard LOL! 😛

Instead, I’d pick 2 words – Seizing Opportunities. Are you able to sum your year up in a word, or two? 🙂
