It’s the “Moments” that become your destiny!

“The best things in life do not come in days, they are mere moments that leave us enchanted”

I set out on a journey travelling alone, all excited to learn. The first two-three days, nothing was happening. I was meeting new people, learning new things, but nothing that would be cherished. I was agitated.

But, it was only when I relaxed, that I realized:

  • It’s the small moments that teach us something new,
  • It’s those unexpected joys that become memories and
  • It’s  one story or one person that changes our perspective.

There is so much to explore. It is an incessant journey. But, don’t lose out on moments looking for “something big or grand”. It is the mere moments that can change our life. It is the smallest thing that can be the most extraordinary thing in our life. So wherever you go, live the moment and cherish it like there’s no tomorrow. You never know which moment is destined for your greater good!!

Wanderlust

Wanderlust_1_wanderlust_alt

As a young adult, it’s always been my dream to travel alone or travel with strangers to new places, explore the unknown and find the lost serenity. I am in awe of the mountains, the sky, the rain, the river, the ocean, the sunrise-sunset, the forests… I love every single element of the nature. I just want to get lost or find myself, either of these. 

When traveling to new places, we must find time to connect to ourselves or connect to the nature. But how does this mystical connection happen… Well it’s simple, by being silent. Silence our thoughts and be aware of your breath. Take your fill of fresh oxygen, listen to the silence and soon you will be enchanted or you get into a meditative state, where you feel some connection to everything around you; You can hear the water laughing in the rivers, you feel the wind blowing kisses towards you and your breath feels like the magical connect to the nature. You need to experience it, to know what this feels like.

Mindfulness is a word used too often, but we need to practice and experience it more often. Traveling to beautiful places, away from the bustle of the city is a time we need to recharge our batteries and experience tranquility that we can carry into our busy lives. And this my dear friends, is what Yoga focuses on. 🙂

All you want to know about Facial mists

Why the hype about facial mists? Is it a fad where we pay a lot of money to spritz some canned water onto your face. Well, I’m here to assure you that this is not necessarily the case!

In fact, facial mists are a must-have in your skincare routine, especially when you travel.

What are facial mists?

A mini spray bottle with water in it plus  vitamins, minerals and plant or flower extracts, these water wonders refresh, soothe and hydrate skin, and also tone, mattify and keep pores firmly closed.

Face mists might probably be more about pampering than performance, but considering your skin has to deal with heat, sunrays, sticky weather, pollution and stress every day, a little indulgence is essential.

How do they help?

  • Hydration: Very essential, when you are on a road trip. Just one quick spritz and you are providing your skin with essential nutrients to help hydrate and keep it fresh.
  • Sooth and calm: If you have sensitive skin prone to rashes due to the sun, heat or pollution (like me). YOU BETTER KEEP A MIST in your bag. It soothes your skin and keeps it clean. It is perfect for sunburns and skin irritations.
  • Refresh and rejuvenate:  Mists are the perfect pick-me up for tired, sweaty, dull looking skin. Open pores will look less visible after a couple of spritz.
  • Travel Buddy:  The best bit? It is your dermatologist when you travel. It’s handy and  a real skin saviour especially when you emerge from a too-cold air conditioned room or a long flight.
