Channelizing anger
Anger is a burning coal
Destroying the one holding it
Choose to be less worked up
And let go of the little things.
Life makes things better
Anger is a powerful emotion
That is unpredictable by nature
Expression is the first step
To channelize anger issues
Secondly choosing to shift attention
To focus on something positive
Helps to channelize the anger within
This helps in converting anger
To constructive behavior.
Thirdly conscious deep breathing
Ensuring a sense of calm
Adapting to change is another way
By doing a bit of rethinking
To find a new sense of perspective
Helps to see the reasoning well.
Anger may stem from deep resentment, held unexpressed for a very long time. Often it may surface in memory associations quite unexpectedly. Or it may be come from bitterness or unfairness meted out.
When angry, it is difficult to breathe, forget think. As all the pent up frustrations get mixed up with emotions and feelings causing an outburst.
Management of anger is difficult as you do not know when you are going to get angry next.
But tapping into mindful awareness, of the signs of anger and dispassionately working towards steps that channelize the feeling of anger in practical ways to release the pent up frustrations begins to help manage anger gradually.
There are many therapies for anger management but it’s important to find one that is suitable to you.
When was the last time you got angry?
How did you express it?
Did you feel bad after the episode of anger?
Do you remember the emotions that you went through when you were angry?
More importantly did you do anything about your anger?
Who doesn’t get angry I wonder. As anger is necessary evil as it is meant to be a vent for any built up steam.
Management of anger starts with acknowledgement and awareness of the issue at hand.
Personally walking, dancing painting writing and solitude top my ways of channelizing anger. I find myself calmer and relaxed and in a happier state post a dance session or after writing or creating an artwork.
I also like to do work that requires organisation like folding clothes arranging things to get me back to equilibrium.
How do you channelize your anger?

Are you OK?
The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.
Pearl S. Buck
Nurture life nurture living
Care for one another
Each of us need one another
For we are not meant to be alone
We are meant to live and love
In this life we have.
This world is meant to coexist.
If each of us take a step
To reach out as humans
To nurture life and living
In love & compassion
In empathy & care
To be humane and inclusive
As simple as checking
With those closest to you.
Asking them a single question
Are you OK? And truly listen.
Our actions can be transformative
Sending a message of care.
Making the world around us
A whole lot better.
If you find someone lonely
Reach out with this message
In hope and trust in care.
Are you OK?

On teamwork
The challenge in building a team is not just about ones performance, but about sustainability, about how best the team can work together.
Then not just about working together but about how much trust care and respect they have for each other that stands the test of times.

Creative capability
Art of creativity emanates from self belief in the creative capabilities within.
Creating anything
Requires trustfulness
Needs effort and focus
And ability to adapt.
A willingness to attempt
Acceptance of errors
And perseverance to go on
To the shifting perspectives
In creative associations
Adding curiousity of a child
Of awe, wonder & joy.
To allow the self
Body mind & spirit
To think like a creator
Is to acknowledge
That within us rests
Possibilities in potential
Of creative capabilities.

A matter of speech
There is always a learning
From every conversation
For it is a dialogue
Not a monologue…
Once I was having a conversation
With a well read corporate lawyer
In the depth of discussion
I casually said,
‘Anyways it’s fine’
And quickly, although polietly he says,
” Mam don’t get me wrong,
It’s not, ‘Anyways but anyway’
I thanked him for sharing without hesitation but in confidence.
While in formal situations of writing or speaking this is the proper way, in casual use of language Anyways works alright as well.
After all its just a matter of speech.
The choice of when to use it so, is yours to know and take…
Anyway now, I stand corrected.
I share this so anyone who also says ‘anyways’ in slang can self correct, if they choose to… for there is always room for a little self improvement.
After all…
We are what we learn
We are what we imbibe
We are what we share.
To learn is to share and to share is to learn some more.

The Dance of the Self Arranging Universe
How intriguing are the intersections in interconnects…
In synergy of the energy
Of the harmony in the synchrony
Of life and the living
Of spaces between the steps
The spectre of the spheres
The realms of the cosmos
From one to another dimensions
And what is beyond the known
The illusions in the making.
Yet to understand more
Is to acknowledge the dance
Of patterns of possibilities
Shape shifting formations
Arranging and rearranging
In the infinite potential.
Watch this spectre of the spheres, the dance of the planets Jupiter and Mars around the sun…
What sustains humanity?
Nature of humans
Nurtured in love
Seeding compassion
Watered in hope
Reared in kindness
Strengthened in trustfulness
Rooted in connectedness
Fortified in faith.
Sustains humanity.
Sponge Heart
There is a profound Croatian saying
by Tea Obrecht –
“Is your heart a sponge or a fist?”
What is your first thought on this?
The human heart is continually operating as a muscular pump, contracting on average 80 times per minute to propel 9 tons of blood through body tissues each day.
Heart is a resilient organ
It keeps on beating through life.
In a lifetime it acts like a sponge
Yet it squeezes itself in every beat
Cleansing to regenerate itself.
Heart is resilient as a fist
Yet open to receive & share love
Heart is intelligent in its intuition
Courageous and compassionate
Caring loving and humane
For after all humanity is heart centric.

Humanity
A few musings…
Where is humanity in this now?
What does it take for humanity to thrive?
How does it continue to thrive?
Touched by the grace of gratitude
Appeased in the love for life
Moving beyond the self in inclusivity
In thoughts, words and deeds.
Humanity continues to thrive…
In moments of humility, kindness & compassion
In help, care, support & empathy
And yet it takes us all
Each and every one of us
To consistently sustain our humanity.

On Silence
Silence is the language of the mind in introspection.
It is the language of self analyzation .
It gives one time for self improvement.
The pauses in between can change the course of the situation.
It has many meanings.
Silence is so powerful
When the mind becomes still
Learning to silence even this silent language
Then it fills the soul
With bliss n harmony.
It becomes
A celebration of Silence.
We are on track
We are on track
Nurturing humanity
In every moment
Through connections
Through art & creativity
To journey into the beyond
From nothing to something
To transcend beyond the mundane
Of notions and assumptions
To envision in empowering ways
Beyond rational thinking
To rediscover aesthetics of truth.

On purpose
Like every thing in the Universe
Has a reason to be…
Your purpose is intelligent
It is embedded in the flow
Such that it’s meant to be
To flow through you
Till you realize you are the flow
And you are enough for you!

Journey lines
Every path is unique to itself
Every journey creates it’s own pathways
Each phase and stage of life
Enveloping in itself creating patterns and yet,
Embedded and enmeshed
Are the journey lines in the flow..
