Hey, I’m Esther Neela — and if you’ve landed here, welcome to my little corner of the internet.
I write because I love it. Thoughts, feelings, everyday discoveries, the occasional rabbit hole. If something I’ve written brings you a moment of joy or a useful idea, that’s more than enough for me.
My life runs on a simple philosophy: KIS — Keep It Simple. I believe the most meaningful practices — spiritual, physical, everyday — work best when they’re uncomplicated and sustainable. As one of my favourite Zen quotes goes: “Move always towards greater simplicity.”
I spent years in the corporate world before stepping away to pursue what genuinely lit me up — teaching yoga, meditation, and energy healing. I’m a practitioner of Reiki, Qigong, The Tapping Solution, and natural therapies, and I’ve long been drawn to the Zen tradition as a quiet anchor in a noisy world. Life brought me back to the corporate world eventually, but the holistic flame never went out. This blog is where I keep it burning.
In July 2024, I started Senseful Crafts alongside my sister — a small Singapore shop for mindful living essentials like candles, crystals, and journals. It’s a passion project at heart — a place where the things I believe in take physical form. If you’re curious, come have a look: sensefulcrafts.com
Proud cat lover. Spreading love and simplicity, one word at a time.
Thanks for being here.
