The Common Mistakes of Tarot Reading in Singapore

Posted by Editor in All About Singapore on Aug 16th, 2014 | 0 comments

Tarot cards may help you if you have problems or perhaps you want to know what is in yourself or maybe you can ask yourself on what will be your future. However, it is not that simple. You can answer your questions by yourself with the use of Tarot cards but the question is, “will it be fair and definite?”

In reality, reading the cards by yourself is not easy as A-B-C. Tarot reading is a complex process and even expert readers may get an imprecise reading of the deck. This usually happens when:

• Reading the cards during an emotional period: When you are at an emotional state, Tarot reading is not applicable because sometimes the results may dismay you. If something happened that makes you feel bad, avoid reading Tarot card. Just wait until that emotional pain disappear.
• Getting an additional card: Sometimes, Tarot readers use an extra card to “clarify” their initial reading. However, if this is not done correctly, it may only lead to a more mystifying reading.

• Reading multiple cards over and over again: Tarot readers tend to go back reading the cards with the same topic. If it cannot be prevented, give yourself a break for at least 1 month or when something has changed.
• Reading all meaning of the cards: There are a lot of meaning for each Tarot card. Reading all the meaning of the cards will increase the possibility of choosing what explanation you want. As a result, it will make the interpretation unbelievable.

Keeping a calm and an open mind is the most difficult part in reading the card by yourself.

We all have some sort of anxieties that can lead to mental problems if it is not resolved. For example, you are scared to talk in public or you are afraid of heights. Some people think that it is natural and they let it slip. They do not try to overcome it hoping that they can live normally. However, that is not high recommended. We need to overcome it so we will realize our full potential.

Are you familiar of hypnotherapy? Hypnotherapy is a combination of hypnosis and therapeutic interpolation. The therapist will lead the patient to heightened suggestibility (usually called trance) to affect positive change. Hypnosis alone can be a good help to patients seeking for treatment. Hypnosis is known for its effectiveness when it comes to treatment of physical, psychosomatic and mental disorders. Here are the benefits of hypnotherapy in details:

Hypnotherapy can help you with the healing of your emotional wounds by using regressive techniques. The regressive techniques will help the therapist (and you) identify what particular point in your life troubled you.
• Controlling chronic pains: Apart from the emotional wounds, hypnotherapy will also help you control your chronic pains. Hypnotherapists will teach you techniques when it comes to controlling your pain. You should not heavily rely on your medications. This therapy will help you manage your pain and decrease your dependency to medications. If you have medical treatments, hypnotherapy can also help you manage it.

If you are seeking for treatment, you will try everything so you will be cured whether it is physical or mental disorder. Hypnotherapy is not new in Singapore.

Writing is a business if you are seeking for profit. If you write a book, you are hoping that many people will like it and purchase it. That is understandable knowing that writing a book is not easy. Of course, you should be compensated but how can you attract people to buy your book? There are already many authors struggling in the market. Apart from that, you need to overcome famous authors so your book will be recognized.

You see, being an author and marketing the book are two different things. It is not enough that you finished the book because you have to think of how to market it. If you are a famous name, you will not have problems selling your books. If you are just starting, it is important that you know how to reach people and build your fans. Here are some ideas you can consider when it comes to building your brand:

• Direct access: You have to provide direct access so your fans will know whatever they want to know about you. You can establish and maintain your fans interests by joining Facebook, blogs, Twitter and many more.
• Giveaways: After providing direct access to your fans, the next thing that you should do is provide giveaways. One of the oldest and most effective ways capture attention is to give away limited number of your books. Free promotions will bring you new fans which are looking for free books and encountered your books instead.
• Flash sales: When you hear flash sales, it refers to discounts. If you want your fans to get hooked, you can provide discounts. For example, you can discount the first book in your series. You can even think about giving discounts for people who will buy your collection. You should not underestimate flash sales. It can be very powerful if you manoeuvre it right.
• When all else fails, look for an agent

These are just things that you can consider. If you write not to profit from it but to share it with people, you should still establish your name so your fans will follow you. How can that be? You can for instance give access by providing a free eBook copy. You will be known and everything else will follow.

There is a future for you here in Singapore if you are a writer. Always remember that. Singaporeans love to read books and you only need to write something that tickles them. Good luck on your book and continue sharing good stories to people.

 

Dining with Dad

Posted by Editor in Food on Jun 22nd, 2014 | 0 comments

In less than a month, we are going to celebrate once again that special day we dedicate to our fathers. On the third Sunday of June, which is the 15th to be exact, we will all be celebrating Father’s Day. Have you got any plans yet on where to take dad for an awesome day of catching-up and good dining? If you haven’t got any yet, then consider these restaurants which are the ideal setting for a value-for-your-money, casual, family bonding.

Grub

This non-pretentious restaurant is perfect for lunch or dinner. Located at 510, Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1, Grub is firm in its mission to serve only good-quality food while upholding their social responsibility. Thus, the produce they serve are as natural as possible and the meat, poultry, and seafood that they have are sourced from responsible farmers and fishermen who grow their animals free-range and without antibiotics or growth hormones.

The result of such careful selection of food ingredients is no less than the freshest, great-tasting menu you could ever want for such an affordable price. Grub is indeed the perfect place to treat dad to some scrumptious meals without worrying about his health. They specialize on burgers so there definitely won’t be any shortage on choices. They’ve got Grub cheeseburger, pork steak burger, and crispy fish burger. Other than that they also have chicken steaks, pastas, and their perfectly tender and moist slow cooked pork belly.

Two Fat Men

Don’t worry, just because the restaurant’s name says it doesn’t mean your dad’s going to become a fat man too. Based on the name alone, you’d automatically assume that this is a Western restaurant. Technically that’s correct, but the story doesn’t actually end there because aside from serving burgers, which are standard Western food, they also serve Thai food. That’s quite an odd combination right?

Regardless of whether you prefer Thai food or burgers, Two Fat Men still is the right place because their Thai cuisines and juicy burgers are all worthy of praise. For a taste of Thai food, they’ve got the classic som tam (papaya) salad, basil chicken fried rice, and the meat lovers’ grilled pork neck. So, if dad can’t decide on whether to eat Thai food or burgers for dinner, then take him to Two Fat Men at 376 East Coast Road and let him have both!

Let’s Have Indian Food!

Yes, it’s true, we love our Singaporean food and nothing comes close to it when it comes to taste. But from time to time, it is nice to change things up a bit and try other international dishes. And what better way to do that than visit some of our local Indian restaurants such as the ones listed here.

Shahi Maharani

At 252, North Bridge Road, #03 – 21B Raffles City Shopping Centre, you’ll find this elegant Indian restaurant owned by the Mirpuri family. For many years now, Shahi Maharani has continued to serve appetizing, traditional Indian dishes.  Their menu boasts of an excellent selection of Indian cuisines such as their Jheenga curry, which consists of tiger prawns cooked in an onion-based sauce, and their tender tandoori lamb chops.

For dessert, you should try their nutty delight, made with pistachio, almond & cashews folded into vanilla ice cream and garnished with peanut brittle. The food isn’t the only reason to keep coming back here because ever since they started, they haven’t failed to provide their customers with quality service and a classy ambience that adds a luxurious feel to the entire dining experience.

Daawat Tandoori

An Indian restaurant that looks after your health and is friendly to your budget, that’s what Daawat Tandoori has always been. Here, you are guaranteed that all the dishes are prepared with good quality ingredients and without MSG or any other additives. You can order a full Tandoori Chicken for only $24 and a Paneer Naan, an Indian bread stuffed with cottage cheese and roasted in earthen oven, will only cost you $3.50.

 

Daawat Tandoori also has an amazing range of chicken specialties and an assortment of filling vegetarian dishes such as their spicy, stir-fried Vegetable Jelfrezi. If you’ve never tried Indian food yet, then Daawat Tandoori at 207, Upper Thomson Road, Yew Lian Park is the ideal place to start.

Ananda Bhavan Restaurant

The tenure of this restaurant is testament to its greatness in serving delectable, authentic Indian cuisines. Ever since 1924, people have continued to patronize Ananda Bhavan Restaurant. They serve a seemingly endless range of Indian dishes from North Indian, South Indian, to Indian-Chinese dishes. Their Thosai selection alone is quite plentiful.

They have cheese thosai, masala thosai, onion thosai, and even pizza thosai. But of course, they do serve the plain version. So, if you haven’t tried the dishes of this time-tested Indian restaurant yet, do take the time to visit them at any of their 5 outlets, including one at Selegie Road where it all began.
