Love this. And it works! Takes a couple of times before you get the hang of it. You can find the same demonstration in English but it lacks authenticity!
Spice up your life
One of the most useful things in my kitchen is my Masala Dabba, an Indian Spice Box. Most of the yogic recipes I make include cumin seeds, black mustard seeds, turmeric, curry powder, asafoetida, coriander powder and cumin powder. Sometimes a few, sometimes all.

Last month in my blog post Empty Your Mind I introduced the first phase of Getting Things Done, or what I like to call WellDoing. The result of this phase is usually a big pile of paper with a variety of stuff – things to do, things to remember, plans, commitments, dreams, events, issues [...]
Things to worry about
In 1933, renowned author F. Scott Fitzgerald ended a letter to his 11-year-old daughter, Scottie, with a list of things to worry about, not worry about, and simply think about. It read as follows. Things to worry about: Worry about courage Worry about cleanliness Worry about efficiency Worry about horsemanship [...]
Empty your mind
The goal of yoga is the stilling of the mind. An empty mind is not a dull and boring place but one full of creativity, spontaneity and bliss. However sometimes yoga and meditation are not enough, at least not in the short term! In the fast, connected world we live in another approach can [...]
