Yoga Retreat

I know I have been spending money...but we can never get too much pampering right? Moreover this one needs to do some work. How? Anyone interested? HML I wish you can go with me...but you are so far away. RM350 from 8.30am - 1.30pm. Price is RM350 or RM290 (early birds). Date: 16 June 2012. So how, should I go? Or should I just do some minutes of yoga at home and go to some spa around here? More info here: http://yogahui.com/2012/03/27/yoga-pamper-retreat-16-june-2012/

Red Cabbage

Yesterday I wanted to buy brocolli to with pasta...but you know what...only one very small pathetic looking brocolli in the entire supermarket..which I can manage in half a bite..and it costs RM4.99! So forget it, I got myself a decent looking red cabbage for RM1.70, enough for me to cook for 5 times, seriously!

So I stir fried some minced garlics, red cabbage, an egg and some angel's hair and (cherry tomatoes, romaine, butterhead)--I cooked very quickly for these 3. It was delicious and I was filled with energy for the whole day...which later allowed me to wash my car under the hot sun.

Today I tried to do the same..anyway it is another 4 times to do ...I only cooked very little angel's hair this time. I did a variation...put in a chopped tomato instead of small ones. Still with minced garlic but I put in some dried shrimps...*sizzles sizzles sizzles*...voila..fantastic lunch!

I really love red cabbage so I really have to blog this so more people will appreciate red cabbage. <3

Once A Year

Today I want to compile a list of things I would like to do once a year:

1. Dental check
2. Health check
3. Hammam spa (i love this Turkish bath and gommage in Bangsar Village, it is not cheap that's why I think once a year is good and i can have something to look forward to. I heard they will be opening one in Publika).
4. Crabs eating with sis.
5. Liver and gallstone flush (i think the last time i did it was 2010, it's time...)
6. Book fair..be it the one in KL Convention or places like Kelana Jaya or The Mines..i want i want...but if i am really deprieved, i will go to BookXcess in Amcorp Mall.

Let me know if you have any suggestions for me. I used to donate blood once a year, but the last time i was agitated by the people in the blood bank, don't think i want to go again.

Orange

I just realised I have been lacking orange color in my whole life. My unlucky colors are violet and orange...so I never go near these colors...although I prefer violet to orange. I almost never worn an orange dress/shirt/blouse before. I know that my Sacral Chakra is blocked...that is why my creativity and sexuality is blocked too. I almost have never been confortable in my own skin in my whole life..although it has improved a little bit already in the later years.

I am gonna start eating more oranges and introduce orange to my wardrobe. Be it a shirt or just an underwear!

Camel Pose

Today I went to my weekly yoga class, after having stopped for 2 weeks: first week-sick, last week-ayurvedic treatment and crab-eating with sis.

I was 5 minutes late today...but I think the centre's clock is 5 minutes faster :S So I missed a bit of the warm-up. Today's class was dynamic and quite intense. I sweated like crazy today. I must remember to bring an extra t-shirt the next time. There were only 3 students today.

Instructor Raymond introduced a sequence of vinyasa movements and towards the end, we did Camel Pose and The Wheel. I did Camel Pose well and I really feel good about it. Not a big fan of The Wheel but I tried. :) Btw just read from the internet Camel Pose(not camel toe :)) can help to heal headache. Try it yourself!

Samkkya

Last week I went out with my sis Lay Kuan for our once-a-year sisters event. We have this once a year crab eating event :) Last year was in Greenview in PJ, this year..Dak Fook in Jaya One.

OK before that we went for an ayurvedic treatment. We wanted to try the oil dripping treatment. However it was rainy that day, the manager (Jane) told us it is not advisable to try it that day as we might catch a cold due to that. So we just had the oil massage and hot compressed treatment. I think it really fix some of my health problem. The price is RM228 for one and a half hours. We had oily and stinky hair after the treatment and we cannot shower for at least 3-4 hours. I felt extremely sleepy after the treatment...which is normal reaction according to the masseur.

It is really good and i will surely go again.
