In the old days, I remember exchanging aerogrammes with my mother. In today's technology savvy age, believe it or not, Speed Dial 7-- Lucky 7 -- is for Mummy! Mummy and I have not yet reached the texting stage. Who knows, maybe I'll text her after I'm done to see how she's enjoying her day?

My guru once said that we make an effort to spend time and appreciate our mothers only once a year, on Mother's Day; but Mother's Day should be every day. We should love, respect and appreciate our mothers everyday.

It's also been said that because God could not be everywhere, he created mothers.

My mother is my best friend! Mummy, I love you and wish you a Very Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mothers Day to all the Mothers, too! Pat yourself on the back, you've done a great job!
Your run a very tough "corporation" every day. In today's world, a mother is more than a Super Woman! Most moms have to juggle between their jobs and their maternal responsibilities - exchanging their Super Woman "cape" for an "apron" once they enter their home.

Today, let the dishes sit in the sink, let the clothes be in the hamper. Today is your special day. So take a bubble bath, put on your favorite perfume, or essential oil, sit and relax with your feet up.

Let them pamper you!  Enjoy the kisses and hugs. Cherish these special moments.

Happy Mother's Day!

Can Can Night

Do you struggle with preparing a meal at home on Friday evenings? My legs could barely carry me home tonight - I had done a lot of running around this week and running up and down the long subway escalators. I was kaput! Did I forget my vitamins?? I ran out of my go-to-comfort food. Brown rice tortillas and Daiya cheese are my butter and toast. Trader Joe's hasn't had any brown rice tortillas recently - all the snow storms we have been having - people have been grabbing them before I reach there! After eating a few corn tortilla chips, dried coconut chips, I knew I had to make something substantial 'cause I wasn't going to survive on that or rice crackers and kimchi sauce! Enter the can can dance! I kept eyeing the can of kidney beans while my mouth salivated. "Yes, I want that!" "Nah! Who's going to chop garlic, tomatoes, etc.?" I debated with myself - I'm too tired. I gave in - made the kidney beans and have enough energy to

How I Transformed My Life?

7 Years ago on a frigid winter morning in January, little did I know that my life was about to transform dramatically! It was my first day at Institute for Integrative Nutrition ("IIN"). Today I had the privilege of going back to school, IIN, for a live event at Avery Fisher Hall! As I entered the Time Warner Building, I started feeling happy and excited! The energy in a room full of 1,000+ health coaches cannot be described, but has to be experienced! Endorphins are released! One just wants to freeze time and stay in the present moment and savor it. At IIN I learned different diet theories, I was supported by colleagues and mentors and learned from world-renown experts in the holistic field. I addressed my own health issues and share my knowledge to help others. Today I am gluten-free and dairy-free and it's with the support I received from my colleagues at IIN that I was able to smoothly transition into this lifestyle. Most importantly, I learned to love and accep

The New Kick in My Block

Did you know that this is the original Sriracha? Mrs. Chakkapak created it in her kitchen in Si Racha, Thailand, for her family and friends. See article from Bon Appetit by Andrea Nguyen. I came across this chopstick-licking sauce, which is hot, yet slightly sweet, during my trek to the Thai Grocery Store. I prefer it to the sweet chili sauce with loads of pepper seeds. Sriraja has the right kick! What I especially appreciate is that it is free of preservatives and artificial coloring and has no msg! Can't wait to dig in to my bowl of noodles! Bon appétit! Jyoti
