I’m not much interested in posting video on others’ platforms; I prefer to keep most content in-house ( Video shown on my IG TV will be provided on my own sites as well). But I see the value in sharing quick content through a social media platform already built up. …
Our immediate environment influences us daily, touching our senses and mingling with our mental states. Environment is the facilitator for epigenetic changes we experience. What we think, feel, see, hear, touch, taste and smell alter us each moment. By overtly focusing on magnanimous steps, we can overlook the more immediate …
