A Short Respite

2012-02-24T13:07:00.055-08:00

I went to my favorite hideaway, Carmel, again for a well-deserved rest after an exhausting 3-and-a -half-month work! Driving down, Norman and I first made a little detour to Santa Cruz to have lunch at Hoffman's Bistro which we saw accidentally on TV's Reality Show, Restaurant: Impossible, a few months back, and I was determined to see the place next time I went down Monterey Peninsula, I thought

Super Bowl XLVI

2012-02-05T18:02:00.007-08:00

I'm watching the New England Patriots and New York Giants Super Bowl right now and with the right condiments, Pepsi and potato chips - junk food, but the perfect food for the occasion! No, Pepsi is not junk food 'cause as the ad says, Where there is Pepsi, there is music... And I'm a musician! Was looking for Bud Light, too - yeah, right, what commercials can do to you, huh! But I didn't find

On Heart Attack and Water

2012-02-03T13:18:00.000-08:00

Here's Sharing -Heart Attack & Water Something I didn't know either! I asked my Doctor why do I and other people urinate (pee) so much at night time. Answer from my Cardiac Doctor = Gravity holds water in the lower part of your body when you are upright. When you lie down and the lower body (legs and other things) seeks level with the kidneys it is then that the kidneys remove the water because

She fooled them all..., "How heavy is this glass of water?", she inquired with a smile.Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to

This is my first break in 2 months from work, meaning, able to do personal business. I'm not off today but the day is too gorgeous not to enjoy the sun while still running errands. Plus, after having been "incommunicado" for a long while, I finally felt ready to go out again. It's been so hectic, so stressful at work - short staff, sick calls, rush, rush, rush!!! - sheer exhaustion! This is it

What is Yagya Again?

2012-01-23T11:01:00.000-08:00

A few posts below, I linked an article on yagya from a religious point of view. Here's a scientific explanation of yagya by Dr. John Hagelin, "Yagya is a technology of sound. It employs the chemistry of sound, the scientific fact that through sound, you can change anything into anything." - great videos! Watch them.http://www.maharishinationalyagya.org/videos.html#video=fg5bF6E9vaAhttp://

One thing I beg to disagree with on the handbook here is #2 -In Ayurveda, the heaviest meal should be lunch as it is when our digestive fire, agni, is at its peak; hence, strongest, like the sun is at 12 noon.Sadly, in this culture, where everything is fast-paced, rushed and the like, no one has time to sit down and eat a good lunch, so we seem to settle for snacks here and there. There are

Indeed, life is here to enjoy! So... BE PRESENT.BE HAPPY, HEALTHY, AND BE PRESENT.

Maharishi Says -

2012-01-07T13:01:00.000-08:00

Keep your desire turning back within and be patient.Allow the fulfilment to come to you. Gently resist the temptation to chase your dreams into the world, pursue them in your heart until they disappear into the Self, and leave them there. It may take a little self-discipline, be simple, be kind, stay rested. Attend to your own inner-health and happiness.Happiness radiates like the fragrance from

Looking Back and Moving Forward

2012-01-02T12:11:00.001-08:00

As I look back to what I've done and not done, undone, redone and on and on in the past year or so, and move on to thinking, dreaming, reaching my goals, achieving and accomplishing this year and on, I remember an ad I saw on a window display of Ralph Lauren Store recently - BE PRESENT. I liked it! It hit me good. It can mean a lot - being current, trendy, noticeable, whatever the store wants to
