Sit down with your feelings
Like a good friend
Listen to it to understand
What it conveys to you
It works out for you.
Your emotions are not your enemy
They are your vent
They are your support systems
For the body to feel at ease
Be a good friend to you
And your emotions will thank you
As you thank them.

I wrote this poem back in time after an unexpected opportunity to travel set me off across exploring unforgettable places and spaces on my own.
Yesterday as I was conversing with one of my earlier dance student and friend now, he somehow reminded me of this poem again , as he has been traveling the length and breadth of India on a bike, covering over 80% of India.
While I wait to see his photo shares and hear more from him about his experience in the journey.
Thought of sharing my verses again.
Travel On
If you are given an opportunity to take a journey
Take it, for you meet many versions of you.
Along the road.
Some you cherish, some cherish you.
Some that change you and some that you change.
Fear not the travel or the traveling…
For one thing is certain
You come away enriched and wiser in every journey.
Travel to liberate yourself
From self assumed notions
To see the light on the other side
There is much to unlearn and unbox
As you travel yield in to the insights
Travel every once in a while if opportunity arises,
Take the chance,
You are richer in your explorations much as your experiences.
Travel on …

In the depths of darkness
Keep the faith on a new dawn
In the numerous wrongs
See the rights
Thank the good
Be grateful for it
Make it a practice of a life time
Know you’re in a better space.

Life is changing
Every minute
Life is never the same
Its ok to wait and lie a little low
You need to trust nature
To move and shift things
What was lost is gained again
What was your deepest pain
Becomes a point of pleasure.
Change is the only constant
My friend
Move beyond these limitations
Of this now
There is so much more to envision
So much more to accomplish.
Life is meant to flow!

Truly life is how you live it.
Your attitude your thoughts matter.
It truly is starkly different
The way we feel dark and dense in scarcity consciousness
The way we feel lightness of being in sensing abundance.
From ashes, to rising like a phoenix,
The power of hope changes destiny.
Limitless is the power of positive thoughts.
Thoughts of abundance opens up ways to explore more.
In moments of despair, it truly is about flipping the script in our heads to sense possibilities in the limitless potential.
Unending is the power of hope.
After all…
Day unto night
Dark unto light.
Hope is here to stay!

Balancing power play
In a group setting as a life coach it is important to balance power dynamics.
It is important to create a space of mutual respect and understanding.
Being inclusive creates an expansion of thoughts and ideas in openness tolerance and acceptance of new possibilities.
In a group setting it is important to hold space by balancing participation through inclusive ways like encouragement appreciation and rewarding contributions. This ensures the power dynamics are kept in check by empathic approach and moderation by allowing space for all to speak up, so as to prevent lopsided conversations.
Have you had any such experience as a team member ?
Do share your experiences of power dynamics at play in group setting.

When there is authentic effort
When the intentions are expansive
And the purpose stronger together
In the journey of life
Dreams take roots to realize itself.
Seeds to trees
Trees to forest
Barren lands turn fertile greens
Salute to this inspiring couple who created a forest out of barren land.
Together they have planted more than 2000 trees… Do read more…

Empathy & Leadership
Empathic leaders find it easier to understand the challenges of their teams but they also need to be empathic to themselves to avoid burnout and manage their lives.
Stress Management for Leaders
If you are feeling stress beyond a level you can handle as a leader you need to introspect.
There could be many factors that build up the stress often without your own knowing. It can happen to anyone after all we are only human. And it would be good to acknowledge the importance of work life balance and self care.
Are you biting more than you can chew? To manage work stress as a leader, while delegating work check, if you are delegating tasks with clarity to the team.
Are you approachable and exercising patience in communication?
Are you checking if they have understood your requirements?
Are your mails, messages and your attitude, building people up?
Remember the way you chose to behave rubs off on people. While it’s only human to err and there could be good & bad days, being a leader is a responsiblity. For you have the power to influence and impact lives.
Likewise your actions beliefs and behaviour can affect your own health. Hence managing your own stressors empathically become paramount as a leader to get work done.
Every now and then tweaking your own approach, to the changing needs, being flexible and adaptable helps you and your team towards reducing work stress.

A barking dog seldom bites
A silent one has propensity.
Watch out for the signs
Too quiet or too willing…
Both are signs not to be ignored.
Who are very quiet and a little too willing to let you have your way should never be taken lightly.
For there is always more than what meets the eye.
