HOW TO KEEP SANE, WELL ISOLATING

Well many of us are now doing the self isolation or social distancing  , there will no doubt there will be days where after some time we get CABIN FEVER.



One of my many things I like to do especially now is meditate. There is something so calming, relaxing and energizing about letting your mind clear away the stress and aniexty , or even lack of good sleep  via meditating.

one of my favourite  youtube  sites is one called ZEN garden,  the videos are really ideal to
calm the soul, there are several to listen to. It is one of my most listened to mediation videos.
At night when having trouble to sleep it is magic, soothes one completely.  Really recommend these
for anyone who feels stressed.


MAKE IT A MOVIE NIGHT OR WEEKEND



The other way to unwind are  movies, there is nothing like a good movie to make one feel good.  Whether it is romance, action or comedy. Here are few of my favourites.
Some are older  movies but still worth to see.

  • Johnny English , more comedies. the Spy spoof . 

  • The Full Monty,  unemployed men that have a new idea.  

  • Saving Grace -  a widow and her new business set up in a small UK town. 

  • The Out of Towners -  couple flying to New York and the adventure they encounter,  older version with Jack Lennon   there is a newer one with Goldie Hawn and Steve Martin  also. 

  • The Marigold Hotel, a new life in India for retired people. 

ACTION

Keeping Warm - Fashion Style

 POP of COLOR Yes it is something we all want need. Keeping warm in the cold winter months.  One of favorite knit top has been my steady Look. The fact it has a large cowl neck collar that I pull up over my face  when it’s windy outside.  It is comfortable and feels cozy . The color is vibrant on those dull dreary days .  A pop of color is nice to see during the winter  season when mostly black seems to be the color of choice.  The Accessories .  I love to add a few accessories also.  Bracelets add a little interest to the look .  The three sterling silver bangles worn over sleeve looks good  , as well as the multi twist bracelet.  Ps  The photo does not show the true color .  It’s a very vibrant blue shade . Looks dull .  After a few retakes no change.  Camera issues. 

DRESS. It up//fashion style

DRess It Up A simple grey knit top  is something I had been looking for sometime. Grey is not usually my pick,  but I thought time to try some other neutral shade.  The top is tunic style and loose fitting . Definitely a comfort piece.  I decided to add some different accessories to it.  This shiny silver piece just a bit of interest to the plain top.  Accessories are really a great way to give an outfit a different look.      Love this multi strand necklace . It suits this knit top, not to delicate but fun and an interesting piece.
