Aaaah…another flight with my 18-month-old son.

When he was a baby, it used to be an extremely easy way to travel. He would share my seat, gurgling and cooing his way through the flight.

Now, of course, it’s a different story. (more…)

Recently, I attended the Yoga Health Festival with Global Mala in LA and was fortunate enough to be introduced to a new magazine called YogaMom.

In the launch of its six-page preview, YogaMom gave us an essence of the variety of features that future issues will hold. The magazine’s mission is to find ways for mothers to achieve balance in their lives while ensuring a healthy lifestyle, not only for themselves but also for their families. (more…)

In celebration of Yoga Month, Los Angeles recently hosted the Yoga Health Festival with Global Mala as part of the festival’s ten-city tour.

This is our second year of attending the festival, and we found that there were quite a lot of changes from last year. For a start, the venue was changed from the LA convention center to the beautiful campus of Loyola Marymount University. (more…)

From the very first day of my son’s birth, I’ve been giving him a nightly massage after his bath or shower. This has become a precious ritual that we share together, like the Mommy Baby Yoga classes that we used to do when he was a baby. (more…)

It’s been a wonderful journey watching my son grow and develop over these past 18 months.

So many of us take for granted how we’ve grown and evolved from children into our emotional and physical adult selves. As adults, how many times have we just resigned ourselves to being a certain way without thinking that we could initiate changes and enhance our inner and outer selves? (more…)

I recently spent a week in Vancouver, Canada. They call it “Beautiful British Columbia” and so it is. The city seems to stay fresh and clean from all the rain. The amazing pine trees add fresh oxygen to the air. It’s quite awesome to see how the city has built itself up through the years and yet has managed to retain its natural beauty. (more…)

That’s what happened here in Southern California on Tuesday. It’s been quite a while since we experienced an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.4. But this was just a friendly reminder from our planet of the universal and planetary shifts that take place on a daily basis.

Here I am, worried about finding the courage to overcome the Neti Pot while the world continues to move forward around me.

My beautiful son is a constant reminder of the newest, joyful adventures in daily life. Every morning and evening, we go for walks, as this is my way of spending some quality time with my partner and son. It’s a balance that we have learned to start and finish the day with.

Ahh…how challenging it is to deal with the toll on our bodies that can be caused by changes in weather and seasons.

Recently, for the first time in a long while, I encountered a sinus issue that made its way down into my chest. This was a very unpleasant experience, especially because I have been very conscious about not taking any medication while still nursing my child.

I learned a little while ago what WAHM stood for – “Work At Home Mom”.

How many of you out there are WAHMs? I have to tell you, sometimes I feel like – WHAM! It’s as if something has just hit me hard and knocked me off my feet, throwing off my balance and my world.
