Journaling- A Connection with your Soul
Journaling is a way to connect with your Soul especially during trying times. Some people could journal daily but for me, it will be usually when I am feeling depressed and down. So the fewer entries in my journal, it will be a sign of things are going well for me. By journaling, I can sense the connection with my soul where I spill my emotions and have a conversation with my soul. You will usually feel better after an intimate journaling experience.

4-7-8 Breathing Stress Relief
Recently, I have been to a course and chance upon a therapist, she was sharing methods of relieving stress during our lunch break conversation. The 4-7-8 breathing technique came into the picture.

RIP Lesley
Life is indeed fragile. Recently, I just got to know about the death of my online yoga teacher, Lesly Fightmaster. I have been following her yoga videos during this extreme period of recovery; from the immense stress and negative thoughts. It has aided me tremendously as I have clearer thoughts after each session. It was indeed a great therapy that I am really thankful for. We should embrace the present as seriously we do not know what is going to happen tomorrow. Live well, enjoy life and love oneself. Rest In Peace, Lesly. Your legacy will flow on.

3 Ways To Regain Your Life
There could be lots of negative vibes and you just could not bring yourself out of your bed. You would want to sink in and waste your life away. There are times whereby such therapy will work and it is usually in the initial stages where you could be trying to get over a lost relationship, job loss, passing of a loved one, etc. Basically, you just want to sleep through this whole traumatic experience and hope things will pan out better. However, there must be an eventual pivot point that you have to realise you need an action plan to get your life back in order. You need a…
