Create my life

I'd like to  share some word which I was impressed deeply.
That is very true.
I live my life , I create my life, I love my life, I enjoy my life.
life is beautiful.

“The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek, therefore, not to find out Who You Are, seek to determine Who You Want to Be.”



- Neale Donald Walsch

Solution for skin allergy.

I sometimes get eczema on my skin, especially around the  lymph nodes (axilla region, abdominal region, groin region )when I am extremely  under   pressure either physically or mentally .

I've got eczema on my skin since last night because of haze from Indonesia.
It seems that haze pollution has worsened and my body can't take it.

I  also got  skin allergy last year because of haze and  it was almost a disaster.
I'm kind of sensitive  about pollution that's why I couldn't take it.
I couldn't breathe and almost felt like dying.
(I am  not exaggerating , I am serious.)

It seems that it is not as heavy as last year but it has been continuing  for more than a month.
Haze chemical pollution weakens my immune system .

So, what should I do??
Here is a solution to treat  my skin allergy.

I always take nettle tea when I get allergy on my skin .
It really works well.



I recommend this nettle tea for those who are annoyed by itchy skin.
And It  actually  tastes good.

Try nettle tea and get your healthy skin  back .

I'll have nettle tea  for another a few days till I get  better .

One way to improve concentration

 I don't take any solid food while I do my work at my salon.
Because  I want to  improve my concentration.

Actually, digesting is the heaviest work because it consumes '' huge '' energy in our organ system.
When we are so busy to digest , our brains don't work well.
There is not enough  energy available for the brain.
This is the reason why we can't use our energy efficiently when we are full.
Concentration tends to become poor when we are full.

For this reason, I avoid any solid food while I do my work.
Solid food needs  more time  and energy to  be consumed   more than liquid  food.
The more you eat heavy food, the more you get tired.
Simple food would never confuse your stomach and brain and you can have more energy .

I make smoothy for lunch  and put in fridge at my salon and take it during break time.

I am really able to concentrate when my stomach feels light .
This is very important  for me to  be able to give clients the best  which is my priority .

these are my break fast and lunch .
kale , kiwi  and enzyme syrup.

AMAZAKE is Good for Improvement of The Intestinal Environment

I made AMAZAKE for the first time.
AMAZAKE  is a traditional Japanese drink .
It's very popular ,especially in winter , because it keeps your body warm.
Its taste is very sweet and mild. It sounds like Japanese SAKE but actually it doesn't contain alcohol .(depends on recipe)
It is rich in enzyme because it is kind of fermented  food  made of kouji and rice .

AMAZAKE has a lot of amazing  benefits for fitness.
Aside from a lot of nuturients such as vitamins and minerals, what I like about AMAZAKE the most is that it improves the intestinal environment because of  its rich  oligosaccaride and enzymes.

Keeping your intestine clean  is the key to maintaining your skin healthy and glowing .
If constipation annoys you, AMAZAKE  is a highly recommended solution.

I love food  rich in enzymes because it gives me a lot of benefits for keeping my skin beautiful.
I guess fermented  food is one of  the reasons why  traditional Japanese ladies have beautiful skin .
Traditionally we have a variety of fermented food such as miso,shouyu, natttou, Japanese pickles and etc...
I try to take fermented food as much as possible to keep my intestine clean.
As I  mentioned , you have to keep your intestine clean first of all if  you want a beautiful skin .
It is very essential to keep  glowing skin.

This time I made AMAZAKE with wihte rice, but next time I will make it with Brown Rice.
It will be healthier and  more nutritious .

Home made AMAZAKE.

the process of making amazake at home is quite easy .

just mix kouji and porridge .

leave it in a rice warmers for 8~10hours.

the temperature should be kept at 60 degree.

that's all!!

Kouji (Kouji mold)

I got kouji at meidi-ya.

if rice porridge is mixed  with kouji ,the texture should become thicker.

 but as it was fermented ,it became more diluted ( or watery)

and very sweet!! 

the more I simplify my life , the more comfortable I feel.

I like the simple life . It means not only about material things ,also about  relationship.

I want to simplify  my life more and more and I  always  want to be surrounded by people and things that I love .

Life is short , I want to pay attention to only  things I really like.

The more I simplify my life , The more comfortable  I feel.

Here are  inspirational words by Meryl Streep.

I NO LONGER HAVE PATIENCE

beautifully written by Meryl Streep

I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I’ve become arrogant, but simply because I reached a point in my life where I do not want to waste more time with what displeases me or hurts me.

I have no patience for cynicism, excessive criticism and demands of any nature.

I lost the will to please those who do not like me, to love those who do not love me and to smile at those who do not want to smile at me.

I no longer spend a single minute on those who lie or want to manipulate. I decided not to coexist anymore with pretence, hypocrisy, dishonesty and cheap praise.

I do not tolerate selective erudition nor academic arrogance.

I do not adjust either to popular gossiping. I hate conflict and comparisons.

I believe in a world of opposites and that’s why I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities.

 In friendship I dislike the lack of loyalty and betrayal.

I do not get along with those who do not know how to give a compliment or a word of encouragement.

Exaggerations bore me and I have difficulty accepting those who do not like animals.

And on top of everything I have no patience for anyone who does not deserve my patience.”

 Meryl Streep

Fantastic night at Andre restaurant

My husband and I went to Andre  restaurant 2 days ago . It is one of our favorite restaurants in Singapore. It's been a year since we  last went there .

We got  an invitation from The  Ritz Paris. We joined a lovely intimate dinner with lovely ladies from Ritz Paris and other guests.
They came to share some news from The Ritz Paris.
Actually , It was a small group and we had a wonderful dinner in a nice and cozy private room.

While having a wonderful  dinner,  the director from the Ritz told us how the new Ritz is going  .
Renovation has started 2 years ago and It is supposed to be completed in 2014 .
But actually, it will  take another  year. It will reopen in the fall in 2015 ,after 3 years  of renovation.
They are passionate in   giving  their customer   a '' REAL PARIS EXPERIENCE''
I was relieved to hear that The New Ritz will maintain  its beautiful traditional appearance and rooms .

We were there the very last day they closed, and We hope to  be there on the first day after renovation!

Aside from the amazing dinner (  chef Andre  always impresses  us!) and fun talk with guests,
We‘ve met a wonderful lady there.

She is a  really famous lady here in Singapore ,and she has already  becme a legend.
I knew about her because I've read an article about her in a magazine or newspaper .
I never  imagined that I could meet her  that night.
She was seated in front of me ,so I had a lot of chances to talk with her.

She was very charming and friendly. I became a big fan of hers :).
I was so  impressed by her and her lifestyle as a working lady , wife and mother.
She inspired me a lot!
She is one of the most inspirational women I've ever met.
That was a very precious moment in which I could hear a lot of stories directly from her.
Sometimes things like this happen in  real Life.
I mean Things I've never ever  imagined could happen in   real life.
That is the reason why I always think Life is full of wonder and It always amazes me!!

I would never forget that night and I hope to see her again someday.

Beat dull skin with Beets!!

I sometimes have a fresh beats juice or smoothy for my breakfast.

Especially when I am bothered by dull skin and eye bugs.

Beets is rich in iron and other minerals and it helps to ged rid of dull skin.

Actually taking fresh beets is  more efficient to absorb iron than taking supplement.

I always can see the benefit after having beats juice for a few day.

Dull skin's gone away!!

Here is another benefits about eating beets.

  

・Good for water retention and constipation.

・Detoxification and Cleansing liver and kidney.

・High in Antioxidant for clear skin.

Do these benefits inspire You to eat  Beets?

I recommend uncooked raw beets as a fresh juice ,salad and smoothy . 

you can take rich enzyme from them.
