Pebble-power
Ok, so I’m always ten steps behind the rest of the world when it comes to trends… I am what I am. But, the other day I came across the idea of “pebbling” and I fell in love. Now, please don’t hold me to account if all of this is…

What am I doing here?
While doing my regular blog-land roundabout I came across a blog called The Spectacled Bean and a post labelled “Home Sweet Home: do you know where you belong?” The post referred to an interactive website (OECD Better Life Index) where you can find out which country best suits you based…

8 or infinity? (It’s a matter of perspective!)
Today marks my 8-month anniversary of blogging. On one hand it seems a little amount of time compared to the timespans of so many other blogs that I visit and enjoy… on the other hand, it seems like a big achievement for a chronic pain “sicko” like me! I say…

Studio Migraine: a voice for women with migraine
Since starting my Mindful Migraine Blog in mid-January of this year, I have spent as much time (if not more) reading other people’s blogs as I have writing on my own. As part of those “travels” to other places near and far I have met many, many wonderful people (chances…
