Bega Cheese, My Favourite Wholesome Breakfast Choice for the Family

dixonthum

It’s breakfast time! 🥰

I made some wholesome breakfast for the family with @bega.malaysia cheese. My favourite is Bega Super Slims as I am watching my weight lately. Other family’s favourites are Bega Cheddar Slices and Bega Tatura Salted Butter. Both are great to eat with bread, croissants and crackers. Of course, we enjoyed these with some fresh fruits and coffee. Delicious!

I choose dairy products from Bega, an Australian brand because they offer a wide range of nutritional and high quality cheese and butter since 1899, as well as dairy products suitable for baking and cooking too. Their products are also manufactured to stringent specifications using internationally accredited manufacturing facilities. I also admire their continual effort in product innovation and investing in new recipe development and food solutions.

World’s First Coffee Shoes for a Sustainable Lifestyle – XpreSole Cody

dixonthum

Here’s something very interesting I’d like to share with you.

It’s XpreSole Cody. Can you believe that these are the world’s first coffee shoes?

When I received the package, I could already smell the pleasant hint of coffee aroma greeting me. Did you know that 5 cups of recycled coffee grounds make a pair of these? Talk about sustainable lifestyle.

So what’s so great about this pair of coffee shoes, you asked. Let me tell you about it.

First of all, it is water repellent. The upper sole is coated with nano-graded polymer that makes it water- and dirt-proof. Second, it has UV-protection – The coffee yarn has microscopic holes that reflect UV rays soundly. So your feet are kept safe from harmful UVs under the sun.

Next, it has strong grip! It is safer to walk in these on steep surfaces and wet floors. Lastly, it’s ultra-light and highly resilient. It gets back into its original shape easily after repeatedly bending it. It’s that durable!

In fact, I have worn it several times. My feet feel comfortable wearing it with the solid grip on the ground and soft sole that wraps around my feet. The feet do not feel fatigued after walking for a long distance, which usually happens to me with other shoes that I wear.

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.

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.
