5 Exercises To Activate Your Ass: Defeat “Dead Ass Syndrome” – YogaHub

By Motivational, Wellbeing, Yoga

I’m sitting down to write this after a long day at the office. When I add it up, I have spent over 8 hours sitting on my ass today.

By Mindfulness, Motivational, Wellbeing, Yoga

Alcohol is a huge part of our culture and it is extremely hard to avoid a few drinking sessions at this time of year.

The City Commute: How To Stay Sane In The Fast Lane!

By Dublin, Mindfulness, Wellbeing

I just arrived in the door this evening after facing my twice daily bike ride from my apartment in Sydney Parade to my place of work on Harcourt Street. Being a young man from Sligo it took me until my late twenties to eventually pluck up the courage to invest in a pair of wheels and venture out on to the mean streets of Dublin City.
