Join Me at the UN on Saturday!

Posted by 'Funlayo on Thursday, June 24, 2010, In : Information 

Sé àláàfíà ni? (How are you?) I pray this day is finding you well. Summer is officially here as of the Summer Solstice on June 21st and the weather is certainly showing it here in New York. I'm gearing up for a few short trips to enjoy some sun and surf and I hope you're finding ways to have fun in the heat.

Summer is a time for vacations, reading, reflecting and gearing up for the harvest of the fall. Our hearts tend to be open and ready for pleasurable and enjoyment and we tend to ...

'Funlayo’s Top 5 Travel Must-Haves

Posted by 'Funlayo on Wednesday, April 14, 2010, In : Information 
 
Blessed Greetings! Summer is right around the corner and I can’t wait for some fun in the sun! Few things make me happier than boarding a plane, train, bus, car – whatever! – and hitting the road. Whether it’s a trip across the ocean or to another part of the state, I can pack a bag in 30 minutes flat and be ready to go go go! Travel, particularly air travel, can be a real pain if you don’t have the right things. Here are my top 5 must-haves for travel:

Happy Sunday! As promised, here are a few of my favorites that I've been enjoying throughout the fast some of us have undertaken.  I'm really intending this to be the start of a wonderfully healthy new way of eating and relating to food and I hope some of you will join in!

Before I share the recipes, I'll tell you that I use that word "recipe" very lightly because I cook in the "old school" style which basically means I rarely measure things. Just remember...

Hearts Out to Haiti

Posted by 'Funlayo on Thursday, January 14, 2010, In : Information 


Words cannot express the shock, awe and sadness I feel in the aftermath of the earthquake that rocked Haiti yesterday. Please, take a moment of silence and send some deep heart energy and prayer to Haiti and those in the Haitian Diaspora worldwide. Events like this show us how fragile and precious life is and how things can change in the blink of an eye. 40 seconds is all it took to change the course of thousands of people’s lives forever. 40 seconds is all it will take for you to help,...

I remember when the world was anticipating the changes everyone thought would take place with the comin...

Coming Over the PhD Application Mountain

Posted by 'Funlayo on Thursday, November 5, 2009, In : Information 


Blessed greetings to all of you! I trust you’ve been staying busy in my absence – I pray you’ve been staying positive as well. I have been “on my grind” recently; I hope you’ve taken the time to catch up on all the posts you may have missed.

They say that anything that is worth having takes a good deal of work and I am certainly finding that to be true especially as I go through the process of applying to PhD programs. If any of you are thinking of applying, know that it i...

Take a Look Back

Posted by 'Funlayo on Wednesday, October 21, 2009, In : Information 


Staying positive often means keeping your eyes on the prize ahead of you and not looking back too much, but there’s one time when looking back is quite important: after you’ve had a “movement,” if you get my drift. It’s not usually something we discuss in polite company, but the state of your “droppings” says a lot about your overall health and it’s very difficult to be positive if you’re not healthy!

According to many sources, including one of my favorites, Dr. Oz, mos...

Uptown Baby, We Gets Down Baby!

original image found here

I got so into my rest and GRE study this weekend that I didn’t grace you with a Pamper Yourself post, but I’m sure you found a way to indulge *smile* I was a little worn out because I’ve been blessed to attend some really great events over the past 2 weeks! If for no other reason, you’ve got to love New York for the plethora of activities and things there are to get into around here.

As I mentioned in last week’s Pamper Yourself post (those of you who follo...

Is it Your Lucky Day?

Posted by 'Funlayo on Wednesday, September 9, 2009, In : Information 

I don’t know how lucky it is, per se, but today – 09/09/09 is a special day, do you know why? This is the last single repeating digit date that most of us will see in our lifetime as the next one won’t occur for almost 100 years (January 1, 2101 – 01/01/01).

The number 9 has many powerful associations and, seeing as it repeats 3 times today, that’s 3 times the power! If your life path number is 9, today should have been a particularly powerful day for you. The number 9 is associa...

Happy Friday! Let me ask a question: Do you like getting things for free?

Of course you do! Today’s my birthday and it's a true blessing to see another year and to still feel like a vibrant young girl at 30 *smile* Over the past week I’ve been making use of several great free birthday giveaways from various companies that I patronize. Lots of companies give free things to their customers to celebrate their birthdays, and usually there’s no purchase necessary! That’s particularly satis...
