My first overseas trip took me to Italy, a destination cherished by people from all corners of the globe. The excitement of the journey kept me awake on the night flight. Arriving at Rome airport, a sense of anticipation filled me. After a quick refresh in the washroom, our guide led us to the coach to begin our sightseeing adventure, starting with Vatican City (Seoul Through My Eyes & Jeju Island Through My Lens).

Zen Style Chronicles: The Serene Aura of Home Attire
As for me, comfort reigns supreme: I opt for shorts and a t-shirt, a choice deeply rooted in familiarity and ease. However, memories of my upbringing alongside my late mother remind me that wearing shorts was once frowned upon in our cultural context. Nevertheless, as I've journeyed through life, I've embraced this relaxed attire, a preference that persists even at the age of 59.

Nava's Zen Unveiled: Beyond Yoga Asanas
I've seen many people miss the true essence of yoga, reducing it to nothing more than physical exercise. But let me tell you, it's so much more than that. It's about finding balance in every breath, every movement, every thought, and every emotion.
So, if you're expecting a simple workout routine, you might be in for a surprise. Because yoga, my friend, is a journey - a journey that takes you deep within yourself, where you discover strength, flexibility, and resilience you never knew you had (The Power Of Yoga).

Nava's Zen: A Harmonious Haven for Nature's Melody
The presence of birds and their chirping is such an amazing sound. Listening to the crisp chirping breaks down mental barriers and brings a soft rush of calmness to the mind, acting as natural therapy (Quieting The Mind). The presence of bird nests in your compound indicates that your environment is in harmony with nature, portraying a healthy and inviting ecosystem. This is considered a positive omen, symbolizing the renewal of life and affirming that your surroundings provide a safe and suitable environment for nesting and raising offspring.

Plant-Based Salads: Sustainability from Pantry to Plate
In
my early days of blogging about recipes, I often found myself buying lots of
new ingredients, usually just for one recipe. This was especially true when I
was baking or trying out recipes from others. But over time, I realized that I
had a habit of letting these ingredients pile up in my pantry and fridge, only
to discover them expired later on.
As the years went by, I learned the importance of starting my cooking journey with what I already have at home. Imported ingredients can be pricey, so it's essential to make the most of them, especially when it comes to fruits and vegetables. That's why my first step in the kitchen is always to check my fridge and pantry and use up any leftover ingredients, staying true to my commitment to sustainable eating.

The Power of Yoga for Restful Sleep: Patience and Practice
It's essential to recognize that yoga offers a comprehensive natural therapy for sleep. However, the challenge lies in some clients expecting immediate miracles or magic from yoga. Consistency is key, and results typically manifest after practicing yoga for at least 2-6 months. Natural therapies, by their nature, require time for noticeable effects. The expectation of instant results is a common hindrance to experiencing the full benefits of yoga (Yoga Discovery).
