WHY CAN’T I POO?

My constipation kept coming back.

The medication worked — until it didn’t.

That’s when my TCM physician got me thinking about why I couldn’t poo.

He gave me an analogy I still remember:

Think of your gut as a canal.
The poo is the boat.

If there are obstacles, the boat gets stuck.

Everyone knows our gut is home to trillions of tiny microbes that help keep things moving.

That got me thinking.

I need to play my part too.
Help get things moving!

So…

Lifebiotics — for the good bacteria.
Vita18 — food for the gut.

You know, just sharing.

HAZE DAYS. 😷

Haze outside.
Us inside.

Exams on.

Might as well make home feel a little fresher and more comfortable.

Farnesol Magnolia + Hinoki

Small thing.
Makes a big difference to the indoor atmosphere.

That’s my mom.
Severe constipation.

More fruit. More veg. More water.
Doctors.

So …

Lifebiotics.
Vita18+.

Her complaint machine comes out when she DOESN’T S**T every day. 😂

Passport? ✅
Clothes? ✅
Toiletries? ✅

Probiotics? 🤔 huh?

A friend of mine learnt this the hard way while in Bangkok.

His group of friends came down with diarrhoea. 😱

He immediately tipped 4 packs of probiotics — Avita Lifebiotics into his mouth!

Since that trip?

He never travels without his Lifebiotics.

Really meh? 😼

Maybe probiotics belong in the luggage too.

Going somewhere soon? Want to know more about Lifebiotics?

“Neck & shoulders achy again?” 😩

“Try GuaSha?”

“GuaSha?! No way lah!” 😱

I get it. GuaSha can look pretty scary if you’ve never experienced it.

But after 3 years of sharing self care GuaSha, I’ve seen many people surprised by the experience.

Really meh? 😼

Sometimes the simple solution isn’t the one we expect.

GuaSha is just ONE of the simple self-care tools in Meridian Blueprint.

Aiyah… legs aching after a long day? 😩

Just tahan?

Plaster some koyok? So unglam!

But what if there are simple steps to relief the ache & soreness?

That’s what Meridian Blueprint’s simple self-care is about.

小事！化无！
搞定。

Three days at a seminar.

30 mins walking there and back
just to grab lunch.

Again for dinner.

By Day 2…

Ouch.

Nothing extraordinary.
Just going about our daily routines, eh?

And yet—

CAN OUR BODY CARRY US
WHEN WE NEED IT THE MOST?

We don’t exercise to live.

We move to live.

MY BODY IS LIKE MY FERRARI.

My tyre punctured.

Could repair.
Could replace.

I chose replacement.

Then came the bill. 😬

And I thought…

We spend time maintaining our cars because repairs are expensive.

But our bodies?
Got spare? 😏

Is Meridian Blueprint self-care part of that maintenance?

Hmm… curious. 🐈‍⬛

Talk about timing.

We were just talking about taking care of the machine that carries us to our next stop. Just like my friend’s mom.

Today, my car tyre punctured.

Emergency service called.

Suddenly, the machine had my full attention.

Maybe we’re like that too.

We only pay attention when something goes wrong.

What about our bodies? How have we taken care?

Heard from my friend that her 86-year-old mother exercises three times a day.

Three times?!

Why does she bother? 🧐

Her children are more than happy to take her places & in comfort.

She could opt for the easy way out.

But no, she still wants to use her own two legs to do the exploration.
That, to her, is to live her life fully.

And then I realised…

She’s taking care of her body.

She isn’t exercising because exercise is important.

She eats well.
She sleeps well.
She supplements well.
And yes — she even does her Meridian Blueprint well. 😼

Because at 86, she still has so much life left to live well. ❤️

What’s still on your LIFE bucket list?
