Simple Exercise to Feel Happy Anytime Anywhere at Zero Cost

Today I want to share a simple exercise for increasing happiness I recently learned: How to Feel Happy Anytime Anywhere at Zero Cost

It’s called "savoring" and research shows that practicing this technique not only increases happiness but also makes you more resilient, improves your sleep, strengthens your immune system, and increases your creativity.

So what is it?

Our brains function on autopilot most of the time, so it's easy to miss joyful moments you already experience each day.

Savoring is the process of noticing, appreciating and intensifying our daily positive experiences.

It’s about enhancing the beneficial impact good things have on us and helping happy feelings stick around for longer.

To practice savoring, find a moment you want to savor.

it can be anything from enjoying your cup of coffee, working with your crystals, an afternoon walk, etc.

Anything you do during the day that you enjoy.

Pay attention to the sensations you feel from the moment you choose.

Allow yourself to fully enjoy those sensations and express your gratitude for them.

This allows your brain to register the positive feelings that come with that experience, helping you to feel more uplifted.

I challenge you to try savoring something today as I’ve found it really helpful for staying upbeat and positive during the day.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years. Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself? At least I have better discipline". It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
