We are what we eat

We always come across the phrase 'you are what you eat'. If that is true, then what does your eating habit reveals about you?

I was feeling peckish today and decided to make a simple quick meal to satisfy my tummy needs. I was actually thinking of pasta based meal when I decided to turn to the net for some simple to do recipes that I can try. I got that and I also came across something that piques my interest... food based healing....



Food is a necessity to us because we need the nutrients and vitamins from the food to survive. With the advance of marketing and technology, food has certainly evolves... and now we can see many fast food joints mushrooming in our area. Certainly the presence of these outlets are convenience.. but at what price? If we are not careful... we will start seeing our waistline expanding and tummy bulging. Once the weight starts to pile up, it will be an uphill task to get rid of and the journey of dieting will began.....

There are a lot of books written about the topics of food healing and I believe what it is trying to tell us is that
we can use food's nutrition to develop optimum health. The idea of using food to heal is not new and it is very diverse across the cultures. For example, the humble and bitter 'peria' or bitter gourd have been promoted as the answer to diabetes control. It was found that regular intake of bitter gourd along with your food can help diabetics to control their blood sugar level.

So, next time you shop for food, try to fill your trolley with fresh fruits, veggies, legumes, leafy greens, fish and seafood to cater for various nutrition that your body needs. It will be a great foundation to a healthy body... chioww..

A moment like this

This song is really beautiful..

"A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Oh I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this"

Both Liona Lewis and Kelly Clarkson sing this song but Kelly's Idol version has more feeling and her voice is more powerful.

So, are you waiting for your moment?

Happy New Year 2009

It has been sometime since I penned something on this blog. It has been two busy months and I just couldn't find the time to do it.

Well, 2009 is here and hopefully it will bring happiness to everybody regardless of what others are saying and predicting.

Each New Year will bring in new resolutions. This year, there are few things that I want to achieve, with sorting out my finance to be my top priority. I'm also trying to get my hand into small business... ... and in doing so; I'll have to learn the art of marketing and selling. I found this new knowledge very interesting and there are so many things to learn.

One thing we should be aware of is, whatever it is that we want to succeed in, having a correct mindset is the main priority. What we subconsciously think is what we are attracting, whether we realize it or not. And this is also the area that I'm focusing on this year. Reprogramming the mindset is not something simple and it requires efforts and I'm certainly taking baby steps in this path.

Anyway, I just want to wish everybody a happy new year and may your life blessed with abundance.

I love this fruit...

One of favorite fruits is pomegranate. I’ve bought this one at Tesco for RM1.99. Although the seed was not so red, it was so sweeeeeetttt.. and I finish one whole fruit in one go 

When I was small, life was tough. When mom bought this fruit, we have to share and I normally get smallest portion because I am the eldest. Due to this, I always say to myself that when I have my own money I’ll buy my own pomegranate.. not one, but many of them.

It feels so joyful to be able to share something that I really like with others. When my sisters asked why always I splurge on this fruit, I’ll normally just smile. To me, it make me happy and the more I share my happiness with others, the more I will get back. I believe that kindness always come back to me, they are abundance and come from everywhere. Sometimes, it comes to me from strangers….

Hugs...

A hug is used to show comfort and to show that you’ll always be there. It can sooth pain and bring cheer when you are in the blue.

Why do we hug each other? Do we need hug? Of course, we do. Even my cats and kitties love hugs and they crave it. They purr approvingly…

Hugging your love one can help you avoid stress. It is part of pleasure as human being. Studies also show that hugging extends the level of hormone which releases depression and reduce the feeling of loneliness.

A hug is perfect way of showing the love that we are feeling and it is a wonderful to gift to share. It’s meant for everyone that you care….
