Talking About Our Interests and Passions
Expressing ourselves in an authentic way does not always come easily, especially if what we are trying to convey is not in line with the well-known norms of society. From fear of being judged, or not being accepted, we may often try to twist or distort our truth and beliefs to say what the world wants to hear or, alternatively, we may be forced to silence our truth and beliefs completely. With this blog, I aim to be unregretful, honest and real with every word that is published in this space. However, in the same breath, we want to emphasize our understanding of the importance of also listening with compassion and always conveying our words respectfully and with good and clear intentions.
I invite you to explore the articles in the categories below and see how they can relate and apply in your own lives. Please feel free to leave your comments or send though any subject suggestions you would like to see on this blog, and we will work to make that happen. Satvic Lifestyle is created for the people who want to read it and we would love to be guided by you in order to make your time spent here as valued as possible.
TRAVEL AND ADVENTURE
I am extremely fortunate to have travelled to and experienced various parts of the world in my life so far. I would love to share these experiences with you so you can get excited about places and things you wouldn’t normally encounter. And, who knows, you may even want to go experience some of the things yourself. In this space, I will be posting about local, national and international destinations that have something special about them that is worth sharing.
HOLISTIC HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
For me personally, health and well-being is extremely important in my life, and forms part of the lifestyle I have developed. I wasn’t always this way, however, since I made the decision to transform my life for the better, I have never, and will never, look back. Because once you get a feel for how a healthy lifestyle can better your life in various aspects, you will wonder how you lived any other way. In this space, I will be posting about why and how to start leading a healthy lifestyle, as well as about various aspects regarding mental, emotional, financial and spiritual well-being.
21ST CENTURY LIVING
If I had R 5 for every time my gran starts a sentence with “In the good old days…”, let’s just say I would have a ton of R 5 coins! In this space, I will be posting about how the world as we know it has transformed so drastically in so many different ways, and how these changes are affecting our lifestyles, the planet and the ecosystems etc. Also getting deeper into the advantages and disadvantages of these changes, and how we can (and sometimes have to) adapt to and keep up with the changes.
FEASTING, FASTING AND EVERYTHING IN-BETWEEN
I am quite sure that everyone reading this (as well as the one writing this, that is, me) has tried a diet at some stage in your life. And I’m also quite sure that the majority of us didn’t get the desired effect. I’ve been there, done that, got the T shirt and about 3 years ago I realised something very important. all living beings have diets that they follow. They are wired that way to follow the specific diet that was designed for them, and they live their lives consuming that food. However, human beings are the only ones that feel the need to go on diets, which implies it is not a long term or permanent or sustainable solution; it is simply temporary. Since that realisation, I have changed my perception about food, and developed a diet for myself that is sustainable.
In this space, I will be posting about what is good to eat, what should be avoided, what should be consumed in moderation only, as well as providing some fun, interesting and delicious recipes and kitchen hacks for you to try at home. If ever there is anything you would like to read or learn more about, please feel free to send us a suggestion about it and we will get working to give it to you.
