Should I Or Shouldn’t I?
I found this one on Quora. I did not fact check it but it resonated. If you wonder, “Should I or should not I?” instead think “What will I regret more — doing it or not doing it?”
Jim Carrey’s Commencement Address: Maharishi University
This speech has blown me away. The unexpected side to the speaker, its depth, the very Tolle’sque terminology he uses and the profoundness of advice given. The jokes too of course, eg ‘Monsanto seed’ or ‘I can not be contained because … Continue reading
Need More Than 24 Hours A Day? Think Again
In my recent post about stress I have discovered that apparently stress has same physical symptoms as courage (this is not scientific but seems plausible enough), so in some cases it may make sense to reframe feeling stressed as being brave. … Continue reading

Surviving Blue Mondays
Last Monday was a nightmare. The weather was horrid (although probably not as bad as those of you affected by snow storm in the US and Canada). Commute went wrong – a man under train (I only later connected it … Continue reading
Helping Someone This Christmas
The Christmas before I helped a homeless Big Issue vendor. I kept seeing him on my way to the office and he always looked so sad. I got in touch with the Big Issue and found out his name. I … Continue reading
Best Meditation Apps: Happiness On The Go
I wrote about meditation before. I discovered it this year and I never looked back. I have been doing the simple one where you just focus on breathing. I then did one where you chant, loved it. And I notice … Continue reading
The True Colours Of Auroras
I would have never thought that auroras – which I imagined were mostly green – only appear as green when we view them with our eyes at night. Change the viewing instruments and all sorts of colours come out! How amazing … Continue reading
