For the past week I've been looking for a job and prepping my requirements for employment. I feel so anxious about completing my requirements and frustrated from the challenges that come with it. My frustration mostly comes from waiting -- for results, for releasing of documents, for delays. It's the weekend again, and Monday was … Continue reading Anxiety

Turmeric Milk Tea + Mid-year Gratitude
Aaand because Turmeric milk tea is back in rotation, my tummy keeps making those sounds that tell you it's doing something important. I had shoulder pains for the past few days since I started planking and push-ups but because I do it with Qi Gong, it removes the knots right away. I have a couple … Continue reading Turmeric Milk Tea + Mid-year Gratitude
April-ender
So, it's been a couple of weeks, and there hasn't been much going on really, except that I added planking and push-ups in my post-Qi Gong routine. I can immediately feel the muscle pain, even for just a minute of planking and 10 push-ups for two days. I know it's not much yet, but as … Continue reading April-ender
Missing QG
So I missed 2 days of Qi Gong because I went to an excursion with my old workmates and was so tired the day after, I slept the whole day in. I have to let go of the 2 days, right? Coz I feel bad about it. But I got to shake it off. Good … Continue reading Missing QG
On Self-love

I also find taking medications to be like clockwork. I make time to cook, practice Qi Gong, take a long walk, and treat myself … Continue reading On Self-love
On Clozapine, Qi Gong, and Productivity
(What it really is, is this Putomayo music making me hungry. I don't know why, but, yeah. Lol.) Hello! The past week and a half has been spent mostly sleeping and watching YT videos about minimalism. I have also gotten back to practicing Qi Gong earlier this week, had a *failed* attempt at a job … Continue reading On Clozapine, Qi Gong, and Productivity
Post-confinement musings
A week after leaving the hospital, I find myself slowing down more than I have intended to. The past month was spent in the hospital, aiding my recuperation after a relapse in the last week of January. Getting discharged felt different; the feel of the sun on your skin is warm, liberating, after being used … Continue reading Post-confinement musings
Semper prorsum. Altius.
Clozapine
Hypersalivation. Headaches. Nausea. I'm home, in the metro. Where have I been for the past month is yet to be deliberated on. For now, allow me to be gentle with myself.
Qi Gong Week 2
Good digestion and appetite, but a very bad headache, I had to take naps. There's a feeling of intestinal movement, and the sound your stomach makes when hungry, even only 30 mins after a meal. A lot of sneezing, runny nose, tearing, less pain on my fingertips, but I still feel the bottom of my … Continue reading Qi Gong Week 2
