How about showing nature some love? Instead of only plundering and exploiting her, why don't we give back? You do reap what you sow. I pledged today to nurture this bundle of spring flowers. What about you?

Day 18: De-clutter
Isn't it a wonderful feeling when life is simple and uncomplicated? You're probably thinking, 'Yeah right! If only!' Well, a sure-shot way to a happier life is de-cluttering. Notice how you have 25 cups in your cabinet, but really only use 3? Wouldn't that cabinet look far more chic with, say 5 cups? One of … Continue reading Day 18: De-clutter
Day 15: Take a Walk
Reconnecting with nature is always rejuvenating. Take a walk today- in the company of another or your beautiful self. If the weather permits, walk bare feet.

Cycle. Recycle. Repeat.
"You are not stuck in traffic. You ARE traffic. Ride a cycle." So said a wise person and we decided to listen. Cycling our way to a greener, fitter, happier tomorrow on these two classics- a blue Hanseatic and a dashing Rennrad. Both from over 30 years ago. Makes me wonder whether the way into … Continue reading Cycle. Recycle. Repeat.
