How to Sleep Better Naturally: Light Therapy Alarm Clock

by Tazim Damji

Light therapy alarm clock

It's so much easier to get out of bed when I'm woken up gently. As a night owl, it's difficult enough to wake up when I need to, in order to follow a lark's schedule. It's especially hard when it's dark in the morning and I'm feeling confused about what time it actually is. Waking up to the sound of birds chirping and the sun shining is pretty much the best and most gentle way to wake up. It’s the time of year when people are thinking about gifts to get for their loved ones; a time of year when ...

Home Office Essential: Sonos Play:1 Compact Wireless Speaker

by Tazim Damji

Sonos play:1

Every home office needs a Sonos Play:1. I really think that having clear, inspiring or motivating music streaming in your work space can really make your day just so much more awesome. Whether or not you're doing the boring (but necessary) work, or actually doing something enjoyable—the right music streaming from the right sound system can seriously improve things. These are my thoughts and results—I feel like there should be a disclaimer, but who amongst you wouldn't love to have a great music ...

Stay Connected with Friends and Family on the Go (with Belkin Giveaway)

by Tazim Damji

“I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship.” ― Brené Brown Although I value the time I spend by myself enjoying nature, going for a walk, or reading during my lunch break, little time passes before I feel the need to connect with my friends. I reach for my cellphone in my bag, I send a text message and maybe a picture of ...

Vegan Banana Chocolate Chip Waffles Recipe

by Tazim Damji

Vegan banana chocolate chip waffles

Breakfast in bed. Sounds amazing, doesn't it? What if it came with a mess in the kitchen included? Somehow, it's a bit less appealing! Honestly, I have to think really hard to remember what it's like to make waffles and be left with a ginormous mess to clean up afterward. You know the kind of mess I mean: gooey bits of waffle batter stuff to the waffle maker, all over the sides and just. . .everywhere! You see, I haven't had to deal with that in a while, not since I got the new No-Mess Waffle ...

The Perfect Cold Weather Travel Companion

by Tazim Damji

The Perfect Cold Weather Travel Companion

Warm drinks on cold winter days come courtesy of my Thermos Insulated Travel Tumbler. Sometimes, it's all I can do in the morning to pour some hot coffee in it and take it in the car to work with me. Luckily, this tumbler allows my coffee to stay hot for 5 hours. Another thing I love about this tumbler is the excellent seal on the lid. The open/close switch and the written text make it so I know exactly when my drink is safely sealed away inside. ...

BlueDriver

One of my favourite things to do during the nicer months of the year (or anytime it's not pouring rain) is go for a drive to one of the many waterfront parks, mountains or trails here in Vancouver.

Lemur Monitors' BlueDriver is a wireless vehicle monitor that puts my mind at ease. I have had OBD2 scanner on my want ...
