  • If there is one thing that I love to do, it is to unwind after a hectic and tiring day. Even though it was a holiday, much of my time was spent in cleaning the home. This is how I love to unwind. - An organic soy candle with a calming cerdarwood fragrance. Or a diffuser with my calming blends. - The heart tagram by the boys adorns the head of the bed (they make diff shapes everyday!). - My #kindlepaperwhite to catch up on reading. And I'm currently trying to read Mystic's Musings by #sadhguru - The #boseqc35ii to listen to some of my favourite songs. UB 40 it is. Can't help falling in love! #ub40 Sigh! I'm ready to drop dead. Sleep well. And do share some of your ways to unwind!
  • Nothing that a coffee can't fix. #coffeetime☕ at my favourite place. #flourworks @theflourworks
  • Before the dry day kicks in....unsuccessfully trying to uncork a wine bottle... Not even mid-week but it feels like the weekend.
  • One of my most favourite brands ever! Nothing with the products can ever go wrong or ever disappoint me. Those of you who follow my blog and my posts on Instagram are aware of my love for essential oils. Yes, I'm talking about @omvednatural. There is something very therapeutic about them, when the fragrances fill in the living spaces and just calm those frayed nerves at the end of the day. Omved's Nidra diffuser oil is infused with a warm embracing blend of valerian, spikenard, geranium and lavender. Each of these works wonders to calm your tired mind. Omved uses pure therapeutic grade essential oils which means that you get just the best! Add a few drops in a diffuser well and fill up with water. Light a tea candle and let the aromas waft in your home. What I get is a peaceful environment and a sense of calmness that helps me to unwind after a long and tiring day ( read: a normal day!). Have you used any of their diffuser oils till now? Priced at INR 1010, this 8ml bottle lasts a really long time.

  • I hope I can say that I was one of the early users of @kryagoodies , when they started out, they had limited products and now they have expanded and added more wonderful products. I picked up the classic face oil/classic skin oil because my pigmentation was acting up with the change of seasons and my skin looked very dull. A talk with Preethi and she asked me use the face oil along with the classic facewash. This is not your convnetional facewash, its a powder that you mix with water and use. When used in a combination, it works wonders for your skin. Unlike most face oils, you dont have to leave it overnight. To Use: I take half a teaspoon of the oil and massage on the face and neck. I let it stay for 30 minutes before I wash it with the classic face powder. It leaves your skin nourished and moisturised. If you have very dry skin, you may need to balance it with a very light moisturiser. My skin is definitely softer and its going to take time for the blemishes and pigmentation to fade. Made on the priciples of Ayurveda, Krya has a fabulous collection of products for skin, hair and home. Have you tried any of their products as yet?
