Why strength became the new beauty standard
In a world where beauty standards constantly evolve, we’ve watched trends swing from the ultra-thin aesthetic of the early 2000s to the hyper-curvy “thick” era of the late 2010s, and now back toward slimmer silhouettes again. But recently, something else has quietly entered the conversation. Something harder to fake, harder to buy, and significantly harder…
Why your environment affects your appearance more than you think
Have you ever noticed that in certain relationships or friendships, simply being around someone can completely drain you? Not just mentally, but physically too. There’s this theory I’ve had for a while that when you’re surrounded by the wrong people or environments, your body starts showing signs before your mind fully catches up. And trust…
Why heated workout classes are taking over Bangkok
Even though Bangkok already feels like summer 24/7, heated workout classes have somehow become one of the city’s biggest wellness trends lately. From hot Pilates and infrared sculpt classes to heated yoga studios, it feels like everyone is willingly signing up to sweat even more. Honestly, I never thought I’d become the type of person…
Maybe we’re not lazy, just overstimulated: Why modern life feels so exhausting
Have you ever gotten the deepest 10-hour sleep and still woken up exhausted? I know I have. People always say maybe you overslept, but even then, shouldn’t your body still feel rested somehow? Or maybe you’ve completely changed your lifestyle. Less partying, fewer late nights, barely drinking anymore. Suddenly you’re in bed by 10 p.m.,…
Living in Bangkok: Habits that make life easier
Growing up and living in Bangkok, you get used to things not always going as planned. Traffic that doesn’t move, heat that drains you faster than expected, or being on a motorbike when it suddenly starts pouring and you’re stuck waiting it out under a bridge. It’s the kind of city where even the simplest…
Somewhere between burnout and bed rotting: How to actually get some rest
I used to think rest meant doing absolutely nothing. Canceling plans, staying in bed, scrolling for hours without really thinking about it. And to be fair, I never had a problem with that kind of day. But every time I did it, I’d end up feeling worse. Not rested, just a bit off. Like the…
5 Pilates studio in Bangkok I actually keep going back to
Wellness has been having a moment lately, and somewhere along the way, Pilates found its way into my routine too. I never thought I would be a Pilates girl. I have always been more of a gym person, the kind who lifts weights, follows a routine, and leaves. But about two years ago, I kept…
Let’s Talk: Not everything stays broken
I didn’t expect to see her there, but I’m glad I did. Throughout my life, I’ve always found female friendships a little difficult to maintain. I don’t really hang out with many people outside of my husband, my family, and a few friends here and there. And I’ve thought about it a lot… maybe I’ve…
A softer way to do Songkran (in Bangkok)
A softer way to do Songkran in Bangkok starts with realizing that not everyone wants to be in the middle of water guns, crowds, and chaos. Sometimes, you just want to stay dry, move slower, and still feel like you’re part of something. So here’s a version of Songkran that feels a little more calm…
The Confessions of a Lucky Girl: Finding the right kind of love
I used to think finding someone to love was the hard part. But it turns out, finding the right kind of love is even harder. The kind that doesn’t just love you at your best, but knows how to hold you at your worst. The kind that can point out your flaws without making you…
After hundreds of massages, this one stood out: White Wood Green
As someone who goes to the spa three to four times a month, it takes a lot to impress me. But at White Wood Green Spa & Wellness, every knot in my body finally let go. Finding an expensive spa in Bangkok isn’t difficult. Finding one that truly understands the art of massage is another…
