Malou's B-day party

May is a busy busy month, lots of birthday parties for me... :-) and one of the most important ones is my best friend Marilou's yesterday evening. This is the first year she moved to Brussels and started to work here, so I thought a special gift is mandatary, guess what I got her...?

A name necklace! Just like the one Carrie Bradshaw wears in Sex and the City :-) Since Marilou wears mostly silver tone jewellery, so a silver necklace can't go wrong....

I have got one myself as well, it is in gold since I am a "gold digger" :p Both necklaces photographed together...

I love layering my name necklace with other necklace...

Of course, I wouldn't miss this special occasion to dress up a little... I was wearing my favorite cream lace dress from H&M. Girls, lace is big this season, don't go but run to grab a lace dress :-) And I love how this dress has a sexy back zip in gold tone, goes perfectly with my gold jewellery....

Arrived at the party, can't wait to show my gift..:p

We now are "necklace twins" :-)

This was "sugar on the cake", I met a friend from High School that I hadn't seen for 8 years... We had such great time together and we are going to see Sex and the City 2 together next week, wooohooooo!!! :-)

Me after Martini Rosetta, Sangria and Champagne... you can see little stars in my eyes lol... Time to go home, I have my Yoga class in a few hours.... :p

Find your inner peace: meditation basics

Lots of my students ask me how to integrate the meditation in their daily life, here is the basics which help you to relax yourself and meditate:

1. 
   
   Sit or lay in a comfortable position (indoor or outdoor)
2. 
   
   Close your eyes
3. 
   
   Relax your forehead, your cheeks, your mouth and your jaw
4. 
   
   Relax your throat
5. 
   
   Start to breath through the nose as deeply and slowly you can
6. 
   
   When your breath is regular, focus on the rhythm of your breath
7. 
   
   Listen to the sound of your breath, it is the melody of your life
8. 
   
   Don't think of the past, don't think of the futur, just be present in what you are doing

Now, you should be in a mindful state, you can use more sophisticated meditation technics (such as visualisation etc.) to find the answers to your questions...

And of course, some other things which could help you feel better in your life and help you find the inner balance, YOGA,

PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES,

A GOOD LAUGH... :-)

Some things I love in life:

My best friend

My dog, J.O.

Pancakes, well all the desserts actually lol

I feel so lucky and am grateful for all these things that life give me and am looking forward to welcoming more great things the universe will bring into my life... Close your eyes but open your heart, love!  Love is the key word...     Namasté
