My body was achy, and my brain was foggy this morning. I told myself, I could see what my patients mean when they come to the clinic describing how horrible life is and how they could not do anything or focus! However, I had no choice but to get up and get ready to arriveContinue reading “365 days: Day 25: A foggy brain!”

Working from home today, I woke up, stretched in bed and prayed for the day to be a good one and for me to be a better and a happier person. I listened to Tony Robbins while I was brushing my teeth before pausing him for privacy and resuming the moment I sat at theContinue reading “365 days: day 24: Scented candles!”

There is something good about working from home. You save time by not having toContinue reading “365 days: Day17: Moving forwards!”

A day with people I decided today that time is too short to waste going to the supermarket for groceries and other household items so explored the option of online order and same day delivery. Using an application from the comfort of my home I ordered all the things that I will need for thisContinue reading “365 days: Day16: A day with people”

A random day in life! Started vulnerably in the morning swaying between being open to the world and between turning in to my closed private world but have decided in the end that, the way to contribute is to be out there, to communicate and to interact.
