As a university student, many moons ago, I did yoga. Back in the seventies, it was seen as an odd, eccentric thing to do (and perhaps vaguely subversive). After that, I completely lapsed for years. It is interesting now to see that yoga has evolved, multiplied, and branched out into something socially acceptable, at least … More Yoga Comes In Various Shapes and Forms
It is a perfect day. Sunlight like honey, an occasional gentle breeze. The White-winged Doves are cooing. Only an occasional car passes. There are no motorbikes revving up their engines, no builders shouting and banging on the house over the road. No trucks. Our road is always busy during the day, so we appreciate the … More Notes to Self on Boxing Day

Minister Chris Tufton himself was seen looking very energetic on stage, while a pretty large crowd worked out happily in … More On World Health Day: Depression IS a Major Health Issue in Jamaica
I wish I could have stayed longer, but this week I did drop by the University College of the Caribbean’s first “Boot Camp” – a noisy, energetic exercise, designed to offer study and career options to high school students. No, not a physical boot camp – rather, an inspirational and informative Open Day highlighting UCC’s … More Dreaming at the Boot Camp: UCC’s Vibrant Open Day
