How lovely are these statements? Reading them fills me with a feeling of peace, calm and tranquility. 🙏🏻🍃 And a dawning reality that I have much work to do to feel this way consistently. And I question whether I’ll ever achieve it. One can only strive towards it. I do, however, remember certain moments in my life where I have felt like this. This is my Harmony List – When I consistently exercise, when I regularly meditate, when I eat…
Anyone else love Eat Pray Love? It’s one of my top 5 fave flicks. 🎬 Food, spirituality and love. Italy, India and Bali. Pretty much sounds like heaven to me. 🎆 There are so many learnings every time I watch it. One of them is this quote: “Ruin is the road to transformation” Ruin sounds pretty drastic.

For me I am more centered, peaceful, focused, reflective and grateful after each session. I feel I can take on anything with poise and grace, rather than my innate stressed out and frantic disposition. And I only do it…
This is where it all began. December 2nd 2015, Melbourne Australia. Oprah was in Melbourne for a flying visit for two nights only – the first was sold out.
