Anusara Yoga in Palawan

 Click to enlarge

Just when I thought to myself that I miss being a yoga student (there are no other yoga teachers here in Puerto Princesa), I bumped into Frannie last week when I was visiting Manila. Then I got a text from a friend saying that she will be conducting 2 Anusara workshops in Palawan. So, here it is! For those of you in the island, here's something to look forward to :) I have attended her class many years ago at Pulse Yoga studio when they opened in Greenhills. Now, we cross paths again. How very interesting. Om Shanti!

Flowing River

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving through you

This photo was taken on one of the rivers of Puerto Princesa in Palawan.

The Bed

I have posted about the on-going construction and now I am about to show you the bedframe I commissioned my friend to make for our new home. Presenting the amazingly beautiful work by Gener Paduga, a Palawan native who is a furniture artist and a sail boat tour guide among many other things...and here is his exquisite creation made from ivory tiger kamagong wood which he dug up from under the ground. (an indication it will never be eaten by termites!)

What do you think? I absolutely love it. :)

Happy New Year!

It's a new year in a new land and a new house. Yes, I have been on an extra long blog leave because we lost our net connection since we are transitioning from town to 30 minutes north of Puerto Princesa where we have been building our new home! Yes, did I mention in a blog post that we were to buy farm land? This picture was taken a few weeks ago so much work has been done and I shall update you with more photos soon.

For now, I'm happy to be back in the blog world!

Blessings,
Monica
