“Ergonomics is about your furniture and tools fitting you and not the other way around.” Underrated. Overlooked. Recently at a shopping trip to prepare my kids for the next schooling year, I was taken by surprise at how busy it was inside Ergoworks. It was filled with people from all walks of life. Even more surprising was how wide and holistic the range of products they cater for. One aspect of health we tend to overlook however is their spinal joint health. Spinal and joint … [Read more...]

5 Tips to Help Kids Focus and Concentrate
One of the key life-skills that we set out to inculcate in our daughter as she begins her primary school education is the ability to focus and concentrate. This includes being able to focus during lessons and being able to concentrate to complete all the tasks set before her. Think about it – the ability to focus and concentrate affects an adult’s performance at work too, given how our attention span (according to a Microsoft study) has got reduced to only 8-seconds (shorter than a … [Read more...]
Parenting in the Digital Age: Tips to Manage Screen Time at Home

Julius Caesar by Singapore Repertory Theatre
Murder Most Foul. Quite honestly, I wasn’t familiar with the story of Julius Caesar but that didn’t made any difference. This is coming from someone whose knowledge of the play, was about the famous Roman ruler who died in the hands of his infamous friend, and yes, that final phrase ‘Et tu Brute’. In fact my 10 year old daughter’s knowledge of the plot far eclipses mine. Despite that, I enjoyed Shakespeare in the Park: Julius Caesar thoroughly! Here are 5 reasons we think … [Read more...]
Benefits of Slow Juicing with Hurom Juicer
When cancer came knocking “People generally don’t think about what they eat or drink…until cancer hits them.” I was making this remark to a close friend over the weekend. In fact, the truth is, we were like that too. While we don’t purposefully load ourselves with fatty, oily or sugary food, we weren't mindful of the nutrients our body needs to recuperate and rebuild. We had been guilty of being indifferent about diet and nutrition until cancer came knocking. One of the first lifestyle … [Read more...]
Evita In Singapore 2018: A Review
‘Evita? In Singapore?’ I raised my eyebrows when I first caught sight of the advert last year. ‘This would truly be a first’ I thought, and in many ways it is. After all, this is not your typical Andrew Lloyd Webber musical that would usually land on Singapore shores. There’s no dramatic love story with a sweeping score (Phantom of the Opera), no colorful dances and jig-worthy tunes (Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat) nor are there any make-believe animals (CATS) or one with … [Read more...]
