You don't have Psoriasis

I recently had the honour of meeting Dr. Vaz in Bombay and she is an amazing doctor. She is a lot of disciplines all rolled into one.

She talked to me for at least 25-30 mins. She listened to me.
She knew my personality traits by just listening to me. One of the major takeaways I took from meeting her is that I should continue to do Yoga. Mind over matter and that my mind can take away my skin problem.

Being positive is the first step, One has to think that they do not have a skin problem. This is a fundamental shift in how one should think. I have to train myself into thinking that way and I know for me, it will not be a big shift. Since, I don't really have a problem.

The big lessons learned is that I should not eat meals late at night, eat more fruits and vegetables and get good sleep.

So, for those of you who are reading this. Don't forget to breathe, take in a lot of fresh oxygen. If you think you have Psoriasis, you actually don't.

Colours and Lost parcel

So, I am in India visiting mom and taking a break from the fast paced life in the US. We have narrowed down the colors for the pants. It is quite a task to choose colors as those are the colors you are selecting on behalf of future customers.

After selecting the colors, I put the sample pants of the colors selected in a box and sent the box to my factory via a courier. The courier guaranteed that the box will get there in 2 days. Well it has been 4 days and the box is MIA.

Mom, being totally calm about it, managed to track the box at a satellite office. The box is not lost and indeed will get to the destination albeit 3 days late.

I was preparing for plan B and that means go to the fabric store and find the colors that I had selected and send them to the factory again.

I am hoping to take some of these pants back with me for the Walk for Psoriasis Awareness. I am optimistic that this is happening for a reason and am confident that we will have something for the Walk.

On a side note, Gogi (Manhar) likes the logo as is and I am also close to the colors selected. I will try and get the logo in the correct font and then I can go with it.

A special thanks to Mom and Mita didi for helping me on this project. It is truly close to my heart and I have a long ways to go.

Logo - inception

So,

The logo is taking shape in my head. I have decided to keep the logo all lower case

psocool

I will need some graphics help on this, I have narrowed down a few blue colors and I am going to lock this down.

I have also decided to do a bronze corporate sponsor the NPF walk in June, right here in SF. I think I will be fine. I need to get the labels printed and we are on our way.

I will use the same template as the current websites and hopefully I will have a decent website ready for the June walk date.

I am super psyched.
