Right! Regular readers out there will know I’m well past due an updated on my life changing plans and blah blah blah. Well, let’s see shall we? As I think I mentioned previously work have decided to turn down my sabbatical request. It seems that spiritual development, charity work, and visiting family overseas is insufficient [...]

Start as you mean to go on they say. I started 2012 by sleeping til gone noon, then lazing about the flat playing online games and watching movies. So, a lot like 2011 then, lol. Ok, technically I started 2012 at the Sivananda Yoga Centre enjoying their new years eve celebrations. I went along early, [...]

Well, I’m back from my exotic yoga holiday to sunny Putney. Might seem a bit weird going to stay for a week somewhere half an hour away from your own front door, but then again why not? You go where the teaching is, and when the day starts at 5:45am – with the ringing of [...]
30 Days of Meditation: day 1

And so it begins… Wasn’t easy getting up this morning at 7:30am, especially considering I didn’t really have to. But, start as you mean to go on, so I dragged myself out of bed (at about 7:40), jumped in the shower, and sat down to meditate at 8am as planned. It did not go well. [...]

September 14th : International Kiki Day. A day when all Kiki’s take a break from ‘real life’ and go out and do something less boring instead. This turned out to be a bit of an odd one for me. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do, and in the end what I chose to [...]

Well, it’s been just over a week since I worked the Buddhafield Cafe at the Green Man Festival. Ample time for me to reflect and come to some conclusions. If only that’s what I’ve been doing. Truth is I’ve just been faffing about, doing some yoga, writing intermittently, watch DVDs, and suffering work (but more [...]

Well, I’m back from my yoga retreat. Quite a weekend, let me tell you. Hard work sometimes (getting up at 5:30am for example) but certainly worth it. And I don’t feel half as tired/achey as I thought I would. Maybe I’m getting better, lol. It was at Gaunt’s House, which is this big old former [...]

Bon Iver’s got a new album out!! To celebrate I’m peppering this post with a few of his tunes for you to enjoy whilst you read. Lord knows how long they’ll last, so get ‘em while they’re hot! Y’know, I considered deleting my post of yesterday, it being full of talk and no action; and [...]
