There's a term following the vanishing act which I’m positive will soon be part of the English vocabulary and that is: haunted. To be haunted is shortly, …
I’m an advocate for losing one’s mind. I’m sure most are familiar with the expression which has a negative ring to it with a bit of “crazy”. On one end of the scale it could imply someone acting out of character or drastic and at the opposite end, acting erratic, losing touch with reality or …

The mind is fascinating isn’t it? Composed of countless processes and functions all designed for our survival. A massive role of the mind is cognitive memory. Everything happening is registered and accessible in the memory storage room to be retrieved when needed. It all begins when we are young and told or taught about the …

Disclaimer! This is a message I’ve heard a billion times (and I'm sure you have too) but it wasn't until recently it hit me over the head and sunk in. So why not share my experience and take on it? However, I know the mind sneakily alters information and runs with it for its own …

Are there situations when we should care what others think about us? Especially in the self help/development circles there's a persistent message one should disregard all sorts of criticism and “stay strong” or “whatever a person says only reflects themselves”.

I’ve always felt like hope has a fine ring to it. As if it’s a fellow friend to turn to for encouragement and during times of hardships.

The concept of ghosting is an established and frowned upon sort of behavior nowadays. The term "ghosting" seems to have been birthed from the digital dating world and typically associated with love scenarios. Rarely have I come across it in relation to friendships.

As I was flipping through my diary from last year, I was reminded of the sleep troubles I used to have. Not only would it take hours for me to fall asleep, it was shallow and inconsistent with me waking up at 4 a.m (every night!) unable to smoothly doze off again.

Epsom salt
I decided to add epsom salt in my bath during a detox phase, after reading about it’s abilities to help with the body’s cleansing process. I was also informed that it relaxes sore muscles and provides pain relief. After my first epsom salt bath, I was hooked! Not only did I feel like a…
