I think my last few posts (or should I say many of my recent posts since January!) have highlighted how much I love yoga, right? I love how it has changed me in so many ways. Physically, it has made me leaner (not necessarily thinner I must admit) but, like my colleague Lala said the [...]

Love, love, love…. Isn’t it so pretty? It’s so funny…since I have fallen madly, deeply in love with yoga, I find myself now in the Active Wear section of Forever 21 more often than in the shoe section where I used to do most of my window shopping drooling haha. I really, really love these [...]

  I soooo love yoga. I really, really do. There are not enough words to express how much I have fallen in love with this wonderfully, beautiful practice. I never imagined how much something so seemingly external could have such a great internal impact on me. I mean, I’ve done all sorts of exercises before, [...]

Can I just share what I did this past Holy Week break? Well, besides technically nothing (hahaha) I had a good laugh browsing through some old photos, from both my own collection and that of friends online. I came across this one from my friend Jane’s albums EGAAAAD…talk about enormous, right??? This was taken in [...]

Last week, a friend of mine who I once climbed a mountain with, jokingly said, come, let’s climb Mt. Arayat again. Toink!

Tomorrow I, together with my colleagues at the Psych department of DLSU, will be going on our annual planning workshop. Once more I have been tasked to bring out my inner Kris Aquino and host the event and as always, I’m getting antsy about it. So much so I’ve been emo eating like crazy the [...]

Hah! I was a wild thing in yoga last night harhar. Did this…or at least attempted to mwahaha…..and um….I think this was the pose haha. Di ko na maulit coz I forgot how to get to there mwihihi…. This is supposed to be known as the Wild Thing pose…errr…menolikey the name, but who am I [...]

Among my favorite forms of exercise (mainly because it offers the least amount of pain and effort for me!) is brisk walking with my dog, Bubba. To an extent, it is also because of him that I consistently get some exercise done because he pesters me until I give in to taking him for a [...]

Okay okay, I know there was no doubt I would survive my iBlog 7 talk but trust me, it took a lot of positive self-talk and imagery exercises to appear all calm and collected when I got up on that stage last Saturday It was truly a great honor for me to be among the [...]
