Tonight is the Body, Mind, and Wellness Workshop at 6:30. My friend just emailed me about it and thought that everyone would love to know about it. The Secret of Breath, a mind,body wellness and stress management seminar, is a free community service initiative by The Art of Living Foundation. You will learn some simple yet powerful breathing-techniques, experience a guided meditation, and learn about the tendencies of your mind.

This one hour seminar will teach us how we can consciously use our breath to:

  • Manage our emotions
  • Release stress and bring clarity to the mind
  • Live in the present moment

The way I look at this is that I have there is nothing to lose by going to this event. I am always wanting to learn new techniques to reduce stress and get centered. After a while the same routines start wearing off, so it’s good to have new ones ready to go.

The event is located at Northwest Branch Library - 11355 Regency Green Drive Cypress, TX 77429.

Happy Hours

I have been going to a lot of places around town lately to find out where the best Happy Hours are located. It’s nice to go have a few drinks with friends after work and not have to go place to place looking for somewhere fun to go. Below is a list of the 5 places I recommend for Happy Hour:

  • Candelari’s Pizzeria - Happy Hour is from 3p.m. to 7p.m.
  • Taisho’s Steak and Sushi - Happy Hour is from 3:00p.m. to 5p.m. I know it’s a little early, but it’s great for half days!
  • Mike’s Ultimate - They have trivia on Wednesday nights
  • Antonia’s - Ladies martini nights on Wednesdays nights
  • Masones - They have an early happy hour from 11a.m. to 7p.m. which is nice since the World Cup is going on right now.

What other places do you recommend downtown?
