In our fast paced society, it's easy to feel guilty for not being productive. But rest is what truly propel us forward. That is why, even in resting, especially when you rest -

do not half ass it.

Thinking about what extra tasks you are going to do to “make up for a lost day”, while you do your manicure or watch a movie, is not true rest.

If you wanna talk about commitment, commit to your well-being and really allow yourself to rest.

[Trying to create or find solution to a problem while having a million things go through your mind is like trying to find a piece of paper during a tornado]

🌱 You are not stuck, you are simply distracted by all noises inside and outside of you. When you find stillness, you find your answer, your creativity and your solution.✨

We are all born creative.

Daily practice of silence allows us to connect with this creativity - in our work, life and relationships.

🌱A time for us to simply - be.

It is as simple as making a commitment to stay still, refrain from activities like reading, listening to music or speaking - anything that distracts you from the present moment.

🌱 Make a commitment to maintain silence for a certain period each day. Start with 5 minutes, then 15. Half an hour, half a day, and eventually once in a while, a full day.

Initially you may resist if and feel a lot of disturbance in the mind, yet once the mind gives up on bothering you and get used to quietness, you begin to experience a stillness. 

✨ It is in such state where the best writing are born, solutions are found, most creative ideas are birthed.

🌱 Pro Tip for Making it A Habit:🌱
Find joy in it, as opposed to seeing it as a chore.

Question to self:
How can I make it an enjoyable experience for me?
- Engage your 5 senses
- Light an aromatherapy candle;
- Position yourself in a comfortable space;
- Make it a treat for youself etc..

Everything that we do
We do it out of one of two motivations
Love
Or
Fear

Unfortunately majority of the world acts out of fear

***
You may not recognize it
But you are well versed in the language

“March on, no matter what” (as in soldiers in war)
“Something bad will happen”
"Lose some weight or I will not be loved"
"If I do not do this, I can never be good enough"
“Let’s implement a punish and reward system because let’s face it, you are s**t and you need to have your feelings / inner authority ignored and just march to the beat!!”

***
Yet, there is always another option -
To act out of love
“I love you so that I am going to work on myself, for me, for you and for us”
“I am doing this for me, my future and loved ones”
"Damn, that cardio session certainly feels good! I love how strong my body feels"

“God I was so tired I haven’t been able to get to my project for two days, now that I’m recharged, let's get it going”.

And you go on to work 5 times faster than you would have when you were in emotionally / physically exhausted.

***
🌱 Because your energy is not linear, when you harness your energy well, acting out of love - you produce seemingly illogical but abundant results that your mind will not understand, but tastes so good.

The same energetic shift got me into my dream school, the best workplace in my field and the courage to make a 180 degree shift by letting all of this go and become an entrepreneur.

🌱 Out of love, not fear. Not to prove yourself to someone else out of fear of not being recognised.

🌱 But becase you already see yourself, your value, your worth, and your powers.

Honoring yourself and bringing more peace into your life does not only help you to simply feel better, it brings you tremendous result.

🌱 Because, after all, our external reality is a reflection of our internal reality.
Hating on yourself, pushing yourself to be better because you dislike who you are, will only attract more of that.

And vice versa.

🌱 So love who you are today, be better because you love you.

Don’t think less of yourself just because you are going through a rough patch.

Modern hippy spirituality and toxic positivity have us believe that somehow, having negative thoughts and going through negative emotions are a bad thing.

Well, it is not. Just like your physical health, we go through phases from time to time. We are cyclical by nature and we are bound to go through tough days every once in a while.

Just like you wouldn’t think any less of yourself when contracted a stomach flu, why should you judge yourself for being angry / sad / frustrated etc?

Emotions do not go away simply because you do not like them. It takes working through them to fully release them. Human experience teaches us to cultivate the abiliy to in duality - the old and new paradigms, pain and pleasure, creating while healing etc.

You are worthy, even when you feel like you aren't.

And that is core of my work - with mindfulness and coaching, I hold space for clients to process their emotions, offering them tools that they can practice on their own so that they become more resilient in handling the ups and downs in life.

There are currently two ways of working with me:

*1:1 Private Coaching focusing on emotional intelligence, boundaries, healthy relationships and self-esteem - Check out link in bio; and

*A 6-week experiential Introduction to Mindfulness Group Course: In the Moment (more details to come) - DM me to be the first ones to know about it.

Take care

What if the reason was to pick yourself up, despite?

What if the lesson was to defy all mental stories, and keep believing?

What if the standard is to keep walking towards the belief, even when logic, past experiences, safety (aka worst case scenario) mechanism keep telling you otherwise?

What if this is the very thing that you need to do - to keep believing, despite all odds against it

What if, no matter how hard it seems, all you need to do is to find the willingness to begin to believe? Even just slightly more than yesterday?

What if you are on time and not behind? What if, you are actually ahead of your time?

What if that is the only work that you need to do?

What if your job is to simply, believe and take inspired action from it?

*****
Deep down, you already know that you are meant to achieve your heart's deepest desire.

The journey to the goal, however, can be pretty tough sometimes. In my 1:1 coaching program, I help clients to reconnect with their core self, underneath the untangled thoughts, emotions, internal and external discouragements. Clients have been able to create a better emotional support system and cultivate more inner peace as they continue on their paths to reflect, engage and achieve.

When you step into your power
You can make impacts that you could never have imagined

Playing small and self-blame serve nothing and no one except the ego
And the internalised critical voices of others in the past

You have your present and your future
You can decide how the story is written from this very point onward
You are in control

As tempting as it may be
It is time to let go all the habitual voices in your head
And come back and nurture your heart
The source of the great wisdom of all

Never torment your own soul
With your good deeds, your knowledge and your tools
The past narrative is already very good with doing that
Rise above the invisible container
And begin to make use of your powers
Like a baby discovering her ability to walk the very first time

Things that can you do
Magic that you can create
Sweetness that you can taste
Coming from your self-compassion
Are beyond your comprehension

Your vision, your mission.

🙏🏽
[In Loving Memories of Thich Nhat Hanh]
I will always remember the day I saw Thay’s book, Anger, on the shelf of Page One, feeling drawn to it and began my journey of studying mindfulness with him.

It was one of the lowest points in my life, I just graduated from LSE but couldn’t get into PCLL. I was confused, and well, angry, and not sure what to do with my life.

Turned out, I have been able to do a lot in my life. And learning about mindfulness from that point onwards was a crucial catalyst.

When you come back to where you are, when you arrive in the moment, you are on the path to wherever life leads you to.

Beginning from 2010, I was lucky to have participated in 3 Plum Village’s retreats in France, two of them Thay was still residing in there. And having him answered one of my then burning questions. Those retreats transformed my life. He taught in his prolific writings, but he also taught, simply, with his presence, reminding us that, each moment is a sweet present.

I am one of the most critical reader / student that you ever come to know, I question every single teaching of every single teacher that I am drawn to - I want to make sure that the teaching does not stem from lack or insecurity, but from a place of love. Yet in my years of studying Thay’s works, whether in writing, in lectures - I never sense a single ounce of ego, his entire being consists of nothing but loving kindness, mindfulness and compassion. His worked formed the foundation of my years of practice.

He had a stroke years back, but with mindfulness, he was able to outlived many doctors’ predictions. He was back home in Vietnam surrounded by his closest disciples enjoying last days of his life.

His life works transformed thousands if not millions of people’s lives. His work continues to live on in his books, videos and his students’ practices.

In loving memories of Thay, I invite you to practice mindfulness in your every life. To find that space between thoughts, the space between trigger and reaction.

How to show up when you are going through something difficult?

1. You Don’t
You don’t have to do that. Unless you have promised to do so, or that it’s a contractual obligation, or you will put someone in detriment in dropping out, or you simply really truly want to do it. (Even in those cases, honest and open communication, good faith and mutual consent may also mean you can create some breathing space from it.)

If you absolutely still want to do it, here are a few tips:

2. Honesty
Feeling absolutely horrible on the inside while pretending you are experiencing the best day of your life ever, will only make you feel even worse.

It is like saying your true feelings are not valid and that you need to be someone else other than who you are, right now.

A better policy, instead, is to be honest about your status, and let your partner, client, audience know what you are going through, and the reason that you still show up.

Maybe because you want to keep your words, or that while you are not feeling the best, you want to be supportive, or that the event is still important to you. And by showing up, this is your version of doing your best today. The bottom line is, be your authentic self. That is already the best you can do.

3. Be a Living Example

Everyone goes through what you go through right now. By showing up and be authentic about it, you inspire others to be honest and vulnerable.

And like said, vulnerability is the foundation of human connections.

I personally find that, when I show up while going through an internal turmoil - by sharing the truth of it, and sharing how I handle it, often invoke a lot of resonances.

Whatever you are going through, know that it is part of human experiences that is shared by most people. You sharing how you struggle with your problems, what you do or not do to tackle it - is valuable to so many people.

[By taking care of your emotions, and being responsible for YOUR happiness, you help create a better and kinder world for ALL]

After feeling distraught from some heart-wrenching news in my city, I took myself to my favourite cafe by the beach this afternoon.

Whenever I see news about animal cruelty, it hurts me to my core. And every single time, the same questions arise inside of me

“What can I do to help?”

“How can I help stop this?”

And the answer, always, is to be kinder to one another.

Because when one feels loved, nothing vile can ever comes from that person. Imagine every person feeling loved and be treated kindly - what effect will it have to the world? To all beings?

And how can we be more kind to others?

It starts from being kind to ourselves.

Me sitting in my living room in despair does not do any good to the animals of this world. Or anyone, including me. And God knows my love for animals knows no bound - beyond my cats, beyond the cutie fluffy kinds.

So I decided that, in order to pick myself up again, in order for me to continue to contribute to my vision of a better world, I have to get out and enjoy life a little bit.

*****

If we wait until the world to be perfect before we cultivate joy, the entire world would fall into depression right this instant.

🌿 Energy flows were your attention goes.

🌿 Our thoughts create our reality.

✨By focusing on your own well-being, mentally, physically and spiritually, you are contributing to the collective good.

✨By taking care of your emotions, and being responsible for your happiness, you help create a more gentle and kinder environment for all.

✨Your joy and happiness is a gift to the world and particularly, those around you.

Thank you for taking part in creating a better world.

And I said on the inside “Guide me to offer exactly what is needed by them right now. Whatever that can transfor them most right now.”

I went to a professional coaching school and learnt some of the most effective coaching skills there are, sure.

Yet there is always something bigger at work.

I call it Love - universal, conditional love.

(And no I’m not just saying it because it’s the holiday season, I promise.)

Some people call it God, Universe, divinity or higher self. For me, it is Love. One that connects us all, one that exists in all of us.

You know; the tingling sensation that we feel when we see a newborn baby, a fluffy kitty or a fellow human being carrying out a selfless act. That, is Love too.

Whenever I’m in a session with a client, not only do I offer a safe space, my presence and my utmost faith in their highest regard, I also intend to connect with the higher wisdom, knowing that we are both supported by Love.

Especially when it comes to delicate matters that are close to the heart. I pray on the inside, with trust and groundedness “Dear Love, guide me to be fully present with them now, to offer what is most needed by them, what is most helpful to them right now.”

I have faith in my offerings, because I believe in myself and my clients, and I know that we are always supported by our internal highest wisdom that Love offers.
