Much of what I describe here, I felt while I was there, as if I had been there, and I deeply sensed it all in that journey.
Journey on… 🙏
Wisdom of water
Shaping in the dance of fluidity
Emerging in the strength of flexibility
Moulding itself in the ability of adjustability
Emulating the power of adaptability.
If we truly choose to witness
The flowing wisdom of water
All life lessons are in the flow.

I find this quote empowering in days when energy feels blue…
Look up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits.
William Hazlitt
There is much power in words than we choose to acknowledge and accept
Often when our energies are imbalanced in one way or the other leading to stress, overthinking and despair. It helps to have uplifting words that motivate and inspire as well as balance our thoughts and deeds.
Sharing it with a smile and positivity it brings forth.✨😊✨
The power of choice, rests with us
Yet in conscious choices
We acknowledge
The space between the steps…
Of the inexplicable emotions at play
In mindfulness of the heart intelligence
The so called second brain.
In listening to our body mind & spirit
For the body never lies
We tune in to our truths
To make an informed and integrated choice..

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.
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
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.
Savvy
As I stand here,
Under the canopy of twinkling stars in the sky,
Sensing the nourishing earth under my feet,
The fire ablaze, in the spirit of my soul.
The fire within, I nurture
In passion that fuels, my soul
A purpose that ignites, and a will to succeed,
A heart that beats, a dream to be freed.
Watching the sky above, clouds floating by,
Like a bird soaring, I choose to fly
I wonder awed by infinite possibilities,
Until the setting sun, draws the moon at night.
I feel the fertile ground
Sense the abundance of nature
A garden of life,
In every breathing life, is a universe within,
Bountiful beauty, to inspire dreams.
Sky above, earth below, and fire within,
A journey of life, with a prayer in hope
To meet the mornings, the awaiting purpose of life.
With my Spirit afire in my beating heart.

Surfers attitude to life…
Imagine that you see a wave coming towards you
What is your first thought in your mind?
Do you see ocean waves as something you will drown in?
Or can you think like surfers do?
And think of riding the waves
For they know there is another one coming along…
Life manifests the way you chose to see it.
Savvy

There is great power in your own potential…
But realize that you are the one who can harness the potential within.

I AM GRATEFUL
For this moment of peace
In this now I am present
To know it’s preciousness.
And grateful in soulful awareness
That the Universe in and around
Is taking care of everything else 🙏

To me walking has been synonymous with freedom, and I believe that it is one of the best ways to balance your mind and body every day. I have been enjoying this healthy activity pretty consistently.
Walking is something people take for granted but with the right approach the act of walking can be a friendly support for a lifetime.
But this is about walking and walking on from pride of success so that you create space for more.
There is great wisdom in such a practice.
There is always something
That you would have done
That which you have accomplished
Your success that you are proud of!
However,
What you did yesterday
Cannot be taken for granted
For it is back in time
What ever your achievements
Your accomplishments are yours to know
Yet life is not lived backwards
You can take your learnings
From what is done and apply to this now
For the future is another day
Dwell not in time gone by
Past glory recedes in time
No matter the memory into a distant dot.
Choose to be in this present
For then the hits and misses
Become small matters in the sun
Then no challenge is unsurmountable
For then success and failures
Become stepping stones to learn from
Walk on in this now…
Savvy
Touch beyond the feeling
Sense beyond the seeing
Move beyond the doing
Listen beyond the hearing
Engage beyond the working
Give beyond the gaining
Think beyond the worrying
Play beyond the winning
Blend beyond the bordering
Involve beyond the training
Share beyond the owning
Will beyond the trying
Help beyond the supporting
Heal beyond the treating
Flow beyond the envisioning
Care beyond the loving
Dare beyond the comforting
Explore beyond the limiting
Reach beyond the knowing
Live beyond the existing…
Know Infinite is the truth of being!

It’s not the stress
That is dangerous
But the what we do not do
About the stress that is.
And if we do try to do something the question then is…
Do we really know what we do
Is the right way to destress?
When we suppress
What is stressing us
We are creating pressure
Within us that will burst out in time
When we get angry
Lose out temper
Not only we lose dignity
But we lose our own health
So whether you are a caregiver
Or having chronic ailments
Whether you are feeling burnout
Or finding no way out.
Suppression creates disease
And anger creates heart problems
So between suppression and outbursts
Is a fine edge of balance
To not tilt to the extreme
But to create a pathway to unblock
To vent out without flare ups
To open the door without break it up
It’s all about channeling the flow…
Whether you are battling a crisis
Or feeling lonely on the inside
Whether you are on the edge of rage
Or you feel you have no clue in life…
Remember
There are as many channels as there are challenges
Consider these as a sample of options.
Conversation and dialogues
Socialisation and friendships
Any activity, Art and creativity
Or passion in perseverance.
Workshops and events
Programs, Therapies galore
Hobbies interests, support groups
Community service or mentorship. Education & self learning.
Meditation and mindfulness
Alternative Healing modalities.
