Wishing you all a very happy monday everyone & hope you all have a great week planned ahead! For those sugarplums that need a little more umph this coming week – shall the 4BW give you a little inspiration?

Meditate – For those who live a rather hectic lifestyle (uhh like being overly stressed from work or school!) try and spare half an hour each day this week to just meditate and chill out. It’ll do you a world of good mentally & you’ll be ready to take on the bigger challenges!

Strike a (Yoga) Pose! - If meditation is not for you then immerse yourself in the challenge of a new yoga sequence a day instead! There’s a myriad of beginner’s sequences online (youtube is a great place to start looking too!) for all of you who are interested in trying this out – yoga helps calm you, helps make you more flexible & well – it’ll help you tone up a bit too (without the excessive sweating caused by other activities like running in the summer heat! ouch!) hihihi

Rent a Boat – For those that live by the sea (like moi!) or by lakes, why not rent a small boat or paddle boat with friends and just spend the day floating around aaaaah =)! Perfect for a summer’s day outing ! Relaxing at it’s best

Challenge your fear – with literature! – I once had a teacher who told me to write a poem, or a short story about my biggest fear where my conquer it … Back then i was deadly afraid of dogs and she told me to write stories where i would lock up these fearsome dogs or i would make them afraid of me instead hehehe. Afraid of the dark? afraid of dogs? afraid of ghosts? Write about a situation where you dispose of your fear i swear: it’s another small step towards facing your fear and eventually conquering it ! (hmm maybe i should write about Ufo’s … but how on earth do you dispose of a spacecraft huh??? … RAYGUN!! )

Got any suggestions of your own to be included for the next 4BW (same time, next week!)? I would love to hear from you!! Each idea of course will be credited! Send your brightest most glittering ideas through the usual contact form!

Stay Safe everyone!

Share and Enjoy

O hai! I haven’t visited you for a while.

I’ll probably try that meditation and challenge your fear, more that renting a boat (because I live far from any body of water) and yoga (because I just can’t do yoga). XD

Suggestions:
Wear something you don’t usually do. Just for a change.
Go watch a movie with friends
Listen to The Beatles’s songs, for old time’s sake.

I think meditation will be something I’m going to try. With my new job, I’m seriously going to need it…to think I’ve never meditated before. Yoga pose, that’s one to try! I don’t live by sea or lakes…that’s what happens when you live in a desert. :\
I have a lot of fears, and I do agree that writing about them is the best medicine.

Ideas for the next 4BW:

Do something you haven’t done since you were a kid. This will bring out your inner child and make you happier in the end.
