This Wednesday I chanced upon this natural swing. Made of the arterial roots of the banyan tree, these roots wound themselves around each other to make a natural swing.

A school friend organised a Mindfulness retreat in her sister’s garden across the bay.

My heart was in my mouth as the speed boat bounced off the water. There were times when I felt I was crazy to do something so dangerous.

But the ride was worth every bit as I had the most mind-blowing revelation of all. During our day-long retreat we were introduced to Mindfulness and five methods of meditation. 

I am still savouring this experience and am not yet ready to share it with the world.

Do you ever feel so strongly about something that you want to keep it secret for as long as you can?
