I've tried meditation, I've tried chanting.
I strongly recommend staring at trees

- Yesterday, I cycled 18 km and ate bread-omelette wrapped in a banana leaf
- Next Indiranagar tree-walk on Dec 15th morning. For all those wondering what to do in Bangalore (!), come and look at our trees a little more closely. You'll take back a sense of wonder, some interesting stories -- and the ability to detach from urban chaos.
- "With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world." - Max Ehrmann Bangalore loves the pink Tabebuia Rosea but this is the Tabebuia I admire the most - Tabebuia Aurea or Tree of Gold Now lighting up the streets of the city and, of course, Cubbon Park
- If it's May, it must be #Gulmohar. The serial blossoming is the OG #peakbengaluru experience. Come to Indiranagar this Sunday for a tree walk and learn more :)
- This Sunday, Bengaluru, don't stare at your partner. 😛 Come stare at trees and leaves and blossoms instead. Get to know #Indiranagar for more than its startups and pubs 🌿 *Tree-walk* this Sunday, 9th Feb, 8 to 10am 🌿
- First Indiranagar tree-walk of the year and so grateful to everyone who came so bright and early on a Sunday morning. And always love having old friends along for the walk. Dil garden garden😄
