Bottoms Lab Cool-Flex Jeans : Ultra-Stretchable, Quick-Drying, Anti-Radiation Pockets

dixonthum

Most probably you have read about my blog posts about Bottoms Lab Momentum Long Pants, which are my favourite pair for formal and semi-formal functions. You can read about them here and here.

Now, I would love to tell you more about my current favourite pair of jeans. It’s the newly addition, Bottoms Lab Cool-Flex Jeans.

Here are some features that I really like about the jeans:
What I like about the jeans is it is extra stretchable that I can wear it to do yoga and workout. Its ultra-stretchable fabric makes exercising in a pair of denim possible! I can easily do squats, pigeon pose, backbend, warrior pose… and many more!

It is also quick-drying. Unlike the conventional jeans that trap heat and sweat around my thighs, this one never make me feel hot nor heaty. I must say that I still sweat heavily especially when I walk around. But this one, dries very quickly. Best to wear during trips and travel.

There is also a special ‘hidden’ feature – anti-radiation pockets. The pocket fabric of this Bottoms Lab Cool-Flex Jeans is integrated with copper material to minimise smartphone radiation while carrying them, hence saving the ‘soldiers’ in our sack.

Do check out Bottoms Lab Cool-Flex Jeans on their official website for more other features and details about the product. Trust me, you won’t regret getting one.

The Latest Signature Dishes in Première Hotel Klang – Kung Fu Steamed Fish and Fish Head Curry

dixonthum

Craving for some curry goodness? Or prefer steamed food instead?

Première Hotel Klang is introducing their latest signature dishes – Kung Fu Steamed Fish and Fish Head Curry. These unique and authentic dishes are prepared by Chinese Head Chef, San Chong Chen and his culinary team of The Royal Gourmet Restaurant and are available from July & August 2022.

I have tried them both and I must say that you should try them too! 

The Kung Fu Steamed Fish is perfectly steamed, flavoured with light soy sauce and topped with cilantro, goji berry, enoki mushroom and some spring onion. I personally like the well-balanced taste of this soy sauce very much as it blends in perfectly and enhances the flavour of this dish. Kung Fu Steamed Fish is priced at RM55 nett per set.

Another dish is the Fish Head Curry – definitely a must-try for all fish head curry lovers. The curry is extremely rich and savoury that comes with a thick fish curry gravy base – a concoction of fish curry powder, evaporated milk, curry leaves and topped with eggplant, tomatoes, crunchy long beans and fried beancurd – perfect for 2 to 3 servings in one portion. Definitely taste authentic and flavourful, best served with rice. Fish Head Curry is available at RM38 nett per set. 

These special dishes are exclusively available from July & August 2022.

Aromatherapy-based Treatment with Urban Bliss Wellness for Holistic Relaxation

dixonthum

There is a new aromatherapy concept spa & wellness centre newly opened in Putrajaya. Urban Bliss Wellness is located on the 3rd floor of Mercure Living Putrajaya, provides holistic health and wellness treatments like relaxing body massage, foot reflexology, aromatherapy massage, facial, body scrub, jacuzzi and many more!

I just went to Urban Bliss Wellness for a 180-minute Journey package; complete with their Signature Respite full body aromatherapy massage with manual lymphatic drainage, body scrub and Rebalance facial. After so long, finally I get to enjoy some total relaxation here. Not only was my whole body taken care of, the whole session took place in a very comfortable environment with soothing and relaxing music being aired and kept my mind calm and serene. The surrounding was filled with an aromatic scent that smelled very pleasant.

The treatment started off with a welcome drink. The friendly staff there explained to me their packages and then invited me to the foot washing area. After cleaning my feet, I was ushered to one of their massage rooms for a full body scrub, full body massage and facial treatment. I noticed that the massage technique here is very different from other places that I have been. Every rub and knead is light and gentle on the surface but firm and reaches deep to release tight and tension muscles. They use their own aromatherapy oil too. So the whole session smelled great! My session ended with a relaxing facial treatment. My skin felt so soft and hydrated after the session.

For me, I really like the overall feel that this treatment has given me. Throughout the session, I felt pampered and relaxed. The staff there were very friendly too. There are even a few VIP rooms and a couple room with jacuzzi tub, very suitable for honeymoon couples and newlyweds. Definitely a great place to recharge and rejuvenate.

Urban Bliss Wellness just opened in May 2022 and is currently having a Grand Opening Special promotion – 10%+10% off for ALL TREATMENTS. Make your reservation now and show yourself some self-love and pampering. Time to recharge and rejuvenate your mind, body and soul!

Did you know that asthma affects almost 2 million children and adults with respiratory diseases being the second most common cause of death within the Ministry of Health hospitals in Malaysia?

On 19th May  2022, Asthma Malaysia organised a half-day conference at the Connexion Conference and Event Centre, Kuala Lumpur, aimed to discuss the challenges and solutions in addressing the gaps in asthma care in Malaysia in line with the World Asthma Day theme this year – Closing Gaps in Asthma Care. 

The conference was officiated by the Minister of Health, YB Khairy Jamaluddin and is held in collaboration with the Malaysian Thoracic Society (MTS), Malaysian Family Medicine Specialists’ Association (FMSA), Malaysian Medical Association (MMA), Malaysia Pharmacists Society (MPS), AstraZeneca Malaysia and NVS – Novartis Malaysia.

A series of talks and dialogue led by medical experts and patient representative were held to share and explore the potentials of making asthma a key non-communicable disease (NCD) priority area in Malaysia. 

At the end of the conference, YB Khairy witnessed the pledge signing by multi-stakeholders who aspire to improve asthma care in Malaysia. YB Khairy also officiated the relaunch of Asthma Malaysia website, a one-stop information hub for the general public on asthma.

Singing Bowl Therapy Relaxes the Body and Soul – Now in Pavilion KL

dixonthum

Singing bowl therapy, a kind of sound therapy is well-known for its powerful healing and relaxation effects. Each vibration realigns our body functions back to its optimum level. It is somehow a kind of meditation too, where our mind becomes clearer, relaxed and mindful after each session.

I am glad that I had a treatment session with Michelle from @bmicnailspasalon, located in the Beauty Hall, Level 7, #PavilionKL. Michelle is a certified singing bowl therapist.

The 1-hour plus session has given me an opportunity to feel completely relaxed. As I have been working long hours sitting, I do have some discomfort at my upper and lower back. After the treatment, I can feel that the muscle tension loosen and becomes less tight.

Michelle is really professional at her work as she tries to find out what kind of problem I had before starting the treatment so that she knows where to put more focus on.

So if you’re facing issues like lack of sleep/rest, tight muscles, indigestion, or other issues, I would suggest to inform Michelle first so that she knows where to focus on during the treatment.

After my treatment, I did feel very thirsty and urge to go to the toilet as I needed to flush out toxins from my body system. Isn’t that amazing how singing bowl therapy works?

bmic Nail Spa Salon is also a place for manicure-pedicure services for ladies and men who groom. I am looking forward to my next appointment here with Michelle soon. I am going to try their mani-pedi service. And that would be my first ever 😉

For more info, check out @bmicnailspasalon and PM them for an appointment.
