If I could describe 2022 in one word, it would be INTEGRATION. I learned to integrate my spiritual practices into my career. I learned to integrate my past into the present.

How to Love Yourself Unconditionally l simple mental health tools and mindset shifts

Here are simple tools to shift your mindset and do the work with JOY :) I was depressed for 2 months. From the outside looking in, it looked like I was having the time of my life. But I felt dead on the inside. I had so much doubt about the future. I completely lost my confidence. Nothing in my mental health toolbox was working. Until I realised that I was forcing healing to happen. Through hav...

Asian Beauty Standard Tells Me I’m Fat and Ugly It’s SOOO LIBERATING to finally feel safe enough to tell this story honestly and openly. “Don’t you want to be pretty?” are the words that came out of my mother’s mouth when I told her I’d rather spend most of my time focusing on creating social impact than on the way I look. “You’re too fat” “Your skin is too dark” “You should get plastic surgery...

I have always had a complicated relationship with my hometown, Bangkok. I always felt like a foreigner in this town despite having been born and raised here.

But I’m starting to realise how the abi...

How to be Professional at Work | a Guide for First Jobbers

Since I started my first job I had always felt like a fraud. No one gave me the roadmap to becoming a “professional”. So I observed and copied the people who came before me, trying to fill in their shoes as I climb up the corporate ladder. No matter how hard I tried, I still felt like a fraud until I got rid of all preconceived notions of what it means to be a professional. I redefined what it ...

Quick Meditation for Work Stress Relief
I know how painful this is. I feel it now. I put on my jeans this morning and pulled my hair away from my face directly Negative feelings began to sweep through me and After two hours of housework, I broke down crying when When I realized that the negative painful feelings I felt were Because what I saw in the mirror was an ugly person with a belly and wide thighs .
You should be proud of yourself, when I was 18, I was refused from the modeling because I want to join Miss Chiangmai, miss teen Thai land, I was fat and urgly. I packed clothes and build my new life in America as a nurse 😢😢,

Thank you so much for posting this video. You are so beautiful inside and out, and I am so proud of you for being so open especially because it is so incredibly painful to even talk about these types of feelings. You made me feel so seen and understood and I cried throughout this video because for once I didn’t feel alone. I have internalized so many of the same ideas and grew up with a lot of harmful comments that over time piled on and ended up being traumatizing as I got older. Body dysmorphia is no joke…and it’s a battle I fight every day. Thank you for your compassion and positivity. It’s still hard for me to perceive myself as beautiful, but after watching this, I felt it. ❤
Wow. This made my day. I've been feeling down about all the energy I've put into my content on IG and UA-cam and not having it reach the right people. I'm thrilled you were able to connect to my story. Body dysmorphia really is no joke, it can really consume every aspect of your life in every moment of your day. Thank you for receiving this and I hope you are proud of yourself for doing the work to unlearn beliefs that no longer serve you.
It’s an amazing place, I’ve been there too

Magical! :)
Thank you for sharing. This made me cry. I was diagnosed with combined adhd when I was 24. I went through everything like you did .
Hi Farrah. Thank you for your touching message. I'm glad this video made you feel less along. Sending much love :)
Great, great content, Emmy, you're a great inspiration. What you said from the heart made me understand your feelings. I respect you for being realistic and valuing the good of your heart over your outward beauty. I love your goodness more than the beauty that fades over time.
I just now I see your video, your amazing. I have a depression, they say sever. Maybe I can try meditation
Meditation saved me!! Here are some resources for you to get started with it :) nickkeomahavong.com/meditation-1

Thank you ka 🥰
love it.
Glad you enjoyed it ka :)
Do you think it would be appropriate to go with your partner? My girlfriend and I both have the same goals re non-duality etc.
Hi Jamie. I've met a handful of couples at the retreat so you guys can definitely go together although we are encouraged to take the 8 precepts so you will be in separate rooms and no sexual activities are allowed at the center.
The Bhudda apply meditation level 4 (middle way)exit to reborn.
love you guys! hope u and guy are doing well! merry xmas!
sending love back to youuu :) wishing you a wonderful holiday season
Thank you for letting us have a glimpse into your life. It is wonderful to see you pursuing a passion and allowing yourself to trust the process. May I ask about what type of work the physiologist was doing on you that you showed? And what type of physiologist he is? I have chronic pain as well. Thank you!
I'm glad you are enjoying my videos :) I got an ultrasound treatment coupled with manual therapy, which is basically a massage, these are pretty standard treatments in physiotherapy clinics.
Can't wait to see what Prakaya can bring to the world!!! 🔥🔥🔥💥☄️⚡️
What is the best and fastest get here from Bangkok?
You can visit their website in my description box for all the information you need :)
Girl, You're gorgeous! Inside and out. How could anyone call you ugly? Your smile is especially pretty, and I always tell myself it's better to be strong than skinny. I saw at the beginning of the video you running and working out, which lots of people can't do. You have a natural beauty that many strive for, and in my country you fit our beauty standards well. Beauty standards don't define us, our heart does. Scripture says man sees the outward appearance but God sees the heart. You have a good heart.
Get your videos out. You have very good content
Thanks for the suggestions Lee! Please help me share them if you think this might benefit someone :)
From the inside out you look happy❤❤❤ thanks for sending such a joyful energy 💖💖💖
Hello tanks to give the adress if we décide To go
All information are linked in the description :)
Yay! new video is out! And Wow! You are really glowing inside out❤😊
Wow great timing! I was clearing out my subscriptions about 5 minutes before you posted this video. I can't recall exactly when I subscribed to your channel but glad I didn't unsubscribe. I've been focusing on turning toward difficult emotions during meditation for the past few weeks. During which I expand my awareness to include the entire world to realize I'm not the only one experiencing sadness or discomfort. This video was a good reminder that we are not alone in this world. I'm heading to Chiang Mai and Pai in a few weeks. It's been a couple of years since I've traveled so I am pretty excited. 💙
I love this Emmy! xx nicky
Hello. Love your content. I have some questions to ask about the meditation retreat. Do you have an IG account?
Hi Ravi. Yes I do. My ig is @emmyboons
You have no idea how your vdo helps me not to feel alone. I could really feel your emotions just by watching because I think we are going through similar struggles. This vdo has been posted for like 6 months. I hope everything is ok for you
I honestly think u have one of the prettiest face I ve ever seen so far. You have very beautiful smile too. This asian beauty standard is too restricted. Also, i ve seen girls who conform to this beauty standard, and not every girl look happy. We are more than our bodies❤️
You are very beautiful, don't listen to your mom or anybody else who tells you otherwise What's funny, I perceive you as much more pretty than your sister and other people you showcased in your photos, but I guess I just don't care about "Asian standards" and whatnot You definetely don't need any plastic surgery, lol Even without your physical features, which are actually great, your presense and the way you feel energetically gives you such a big edge over other people you usually see, you can instantly that you are a deep person, not just some dummy who (indeed) spends half her life doing makeup and educating herself about it I wish you'd had a better ability to detach from your life experience and the history with your family/asian upbringing to see how really fucking beautiful you are Regards from Russia
i would love to go. I have insomnia and pain issues at night (fibromyalgia). Would they be ok with me not attending the morning chanting? ie anything before 9am? Thanks for a wonderful and respectful look at this place.
Hi Matt! So glad you are interested in going to the retreat. The meditation technique they teach revolves around feeling comfortable so you can definitely skip the morning chanting if your body needs a little more rest. None of the sessions are compulsory so you have a lot of room to make the retreat your own :)
Have you tried fixing your fibromyalgia. I heard it is SIBO. You can improve/heal this with diet changes. Fasting. Intermitted fasting. Purging with castor oil. Lower fast carbs. Only eat when hungry. Keep at least 5 or 6 hours between meals. Dont eat 3 hours before going to bed. No sugars. No dairy with meals. Etc.
@glowing pains I feel you sis! I too "fat and ugly" and I too pressured, criticised by my own sister who has and is "Asian beauty" standard. I've always thinks I am fat when I was size AU 8 and or less and I feel extremely obese for being size 10 now! I was told I was too skinny when I weight 52KG. I was told that I was fat when I weight 60kg. Girls.. I am sporty person who do alot of outdoors sports and gym.. I am toned 60kg and still I look like a zena to them. You'll never satisfied anyone.. there will always something somebody would say. Dont let their critical opinion bothers you. You should convince yourself.. you are enough! You are beautiful inside out! You are perfect the way you are.. because thats what makes you! Lots of love to you. Hug!!
Love it, my next retreat soon...hope seeing u there 😂
Hope to see you there. I recently just went back again. Love that place!
@@EmmyBoons Im planning to go this October, amh by the way, did u know about Wat Patam mua forest monastery, I was told it is also gud in there
Very helpful and informative video. Thank you for the simple step by step process.
I'm so glad this helped:)
You are so stunning
Thank you :) and thank you for dropping by
That's a good reset in that environment
It was exactly the reset I needed!
Hi Emmy🥰 a question here - what if I've a passion in acting, and really want to break into the entertainment industry, but given how strict the beauty standards there, how to not be affected by it? And is it hard to break into the industry if I don't exactly fit the "typical" beauty standards? Do you think it's worth it then? Thanks!
Hi May! Great questions. If you really have a passion for something I'd say go for it! What I wish I did when I was in the entertainment business was to set boundaries. I would really work on my self-worth and be very clear on what you will and won't tolerate. I think the world is a lot more open now and there are many types of beauty that are accepted in the business. I don't know if it's entirely possible to not be affected by the beauty standard here when you are literally being judged by the way you look. I would double down on self-love practices and validating myself before seeking out for external validation may it be a casting event or a shoot. Just remember that your mental health is your priority and politely set boundaries when you know things don't feel right or comfortable. :)
Where is this ka?

I am SO proud of you for this video and your honesty. I can barely recognize the girl afraid of letting us see her without make up. Thank you for so honestly and bravely sharing with us all!
I couldn't have done it without your reassurace and fresh perspective of what it means to be beautiful! ❤️
I totally do agree with you . Hug hug hug
Which part resonated with you the most?
"Fat is a feeling" is soooo true Glad you're back!
Glad to see you here again Dani!! :)
This video is what I needed ❣️ I love your story telling and I can truly relate 😭
I am so happy that it helped 🌝
Emmy you always seem to ground and voice what we all need to hear in such a compassionate way. I must say that I’ve never seen, heard, and feel you express so confidently and authentically- that for me is beautiful.
Aww Cat, I really felt this in my stomach. Your words are so so empowering and I am so grateful for your guidance in opening this pandora box with me 💖
You're beautiful in your own way
Thankk youuuu. We all are 🥰
