Yesterday I was feeling a tad stressed. And I also went on an iPhone application downloading frenzy! I would have normally thought that the two combined made for a dangerous cocktail, ending in a rather large ‘application spending spree’.
However, I stumbled across a free (yes, even better) application called ‘Affirmations’. Today, the application boosted my mood while I was on the peak hour train by telling me that “I deserve the very best in my life”. Cheers!
The next quote told me that “divine ideas are flowing to me”. Hmm…not so sure about this one. I began wondering if such ‘divine ideas’ would be so kind to flow into my assessment. With that thought, I started to feel stressed again about all of the work I had to complete.
As I left the train I realised that I didn’t feel so ‘affirmed’…. maybe I need to download another more affirming application.
All of this got me thinking about the use of technology in our lives, and specifically the vast amount of applications out there for iPhones. Has anyone got some beauties that I simply must have?

For general relaxation, I recommend Koi Pond. It’s a relaxing and surprisingly realistic looking Japanese Koi Pond in your phone. The carp swim, the water splashes, you can make ripples with your fingers and feed the fish. It’s 99 cents well spent on relaxation.
