WORK IN PROGRESS!!!!!!
It's safe to say that I've spent some quality time on this planet. 20 years and counting I guess I'm wise enough to take decisions and yeah good or bad I did take a lot of them, no complaints but few regrets tho if we look closely all of us are now in positions/situations and these were a consequence of our past decisions or choices. There isn't anything I'm not willing to do to get a year's worth of time back but sadly life and time don't work that way. The...

The Most Original and Helpful Weight Loss Article You’ll Ever Read
As an editor in multiple publications, I read a lot of stories. There are stories that come through some of the publications, particularly in the category of health and weight loss that just seem so regurgitated and unoriginal. I get that there are people out there who are looking to be the next health guru. That’s great. I’m not one to knock your ambitions but sometimes I run into stories that are just flat-out copies of other stories and it gives me a headache. If you’re going to offer advi...

Boost your confidence with a good posture
Personally, I have endured bad posture throughout my life, from my early teens and even up until now, it still is not perfect.

Recently, my posture is much better and I have gotten a boost in my confidence as a result. Going gym, lifting weight...

Meditation, a tad different
It still looks swollen, a permanent fixture, a nightmare I have tried to forget with little success. 8 months ago, as I walked down a narrow set of stairs in a department store, my foot gave away on the last step. An innocuous slip really. Only, I heard the very audible crack, like a twig being stepped upon by an elephant. That was my ankle, breaking up and leaving me immobile for almost three months. I have bragged, kiddishly proudly so, that my body has been subjected to many falls over the...
