Your thoughts matter
Every one of them.
What consumes your mind
Controls you
Master your mind
Than let your mind master you.
Think well!

The Best of You
The way you live this now you have
Is beyond how life treats you
Trust the possibilities in this now
Let go of the unnecessary doubts
Trust in your reason to be
Trust your intentions keep the faith
Life is a reflection of perceptions
And self beliefs manifests hope within.
Keep being the best version of you
Because you truly can!

On Empathy
Life Skills: Empathy Education
Life with all its complexities and contrasts creates a necessity to chalk out ways to make young impressionable minds better equipped to handle its exigencies. Holistic education is so much about grounding in connectedness as much as it is about intuitive understanding that, harmony in the mind body connection is a way of life and living.
An education in empathic behavior becomes paramount in a materialistic world. A lot of misconception about empathy needs clarification.
Empathy is seeing with another, listening to another acknowledging them as they are, in a nonjudgmental space and being with another sensing the feelings and caring to reach out with support through words action and deeds …
Empathy can be sensed in a touch a nod or a smile or in the simplicity of silence, doing nothing but just being there ….
Empathy is a sharing, a feeling, a bonding, a being, a seeing, a sensing, a trusting and believing in hope, in faith, in life and grace.
Empathy is about caring, as a way of being. Empathy is not always about bearing the suffering and sensing another’s pain or being in a state of sorrow or pain. There can arise great empathy when dancing together or in a classroom environment where the teacher feels one with the student’s frame of mind and speaks to address that … or hearing or performing a song or play together with unbridled sense of bonding and enthusiasm. This empathy can be reflected time and time again in striving to consciously stay aware of the mutually creative fulfillment it brings to our lives. Positive benefits of empathy can become a mirror to gradually inducing greater empathic behavior in our lives towards ourselves and others.
Our movements have the power to change our moods, as much as our thoughts can bring a change in our way of being. It doesn’t matter who believes in your empathic way of life, what matters is you believe in it yourself. And that is the first step in making a positive difference. When there is an empathy in action, it is mirrored in our minds to create, generate loving and caring thoughts as a response to the action.
Every empathic thought finds its way into expression thoughts words or deeds creatively. With increasing empathic thought and action there is unknowingly a connectedness, valuing the interdependence in this web of life and living as a way of being.

Healing Moves
Wisdom of Moderation
‘My first intentional practice of Tai Chi began years ago on a rainy day in the month of June. The sweet cadence of the rain in all it’s rhythmic glory, the cleansing nature of the rain was just as wonderfully comforting as much as the experience of Tai Chi, with its movement in stillness and the stillness of its movements.
As I tried to move in unison with breath and learned to direct the momentum for the movements from the central core of the body to the outward, I could draw the parallels of the simple yet profound principles of Tai chi giving a lifetime’s guidance.
A life lived in the middle path gives one equanimity to see beyond the obvious. To envision the duality of existence enough to understand joy and sorrow, are not something eternal. Life becomes simple and just as easy to live as we make it , letting go of excesses of any kind, which ultimately works towards healing oneself from within.
It only adds to the fact that this moderation makes you want to work at building progressively, instead of pushing the boundaries and stretching beyond your abilities to the point of probably injuring yourself and giving up altogether.
The rain’s rhythmic tapping on my open window sill, the occasional bursts of cool breeze surrounding me now and then was in tune with my learning to release and melt away the accumulated stresses through conscious gentle outward movements . I felt a few varied sensations coming to me vying for attention, but as soon as my focus returned to simply witness the flow of breath in the movements the very same sensations completely vanished.
It was so peaceful to end the practice with breath awareness and mindful movements that I must add that like everything else in life, Tai Chi must be ideally learned under the guidance of a good teacher to experience the gamut of life enriching experiences it surely has to offer.
As I completed my practice for the moment , suddenly there was thunder and lightning signifying the release of feel good endorphins and hopefully parting with some of the tensions within me. This is after all the essence of Tai chi , to be one with Nature and learn to nurture it .
A humble dedication to Tai Chi form and the powers of the supreme in and around us.

On Giving
Give with all of your heart
whenever and wherever you can
Because you truly can.
Receive by expressing the value
In heartfelt appreciation
of what you have got
Because it truly matters.
For then in the giving and receiving
Is established a full circle
of a contented connection.
And that will pave the path of grace
For more to follow along.
When you give heartfully, forget about it.When you receive gratefully, remember it. Savvy
Give generously without any expectation.
Receive generously in true appreciation.
Both are the core of human nature in action.
And all is well in the circle of interconnection.

Every Now Matters
Every now well lived
Paves the way for more.
Every moment is a juggle
Between past and the future
The challenge is the experience
Or the expectations of it.
It’s a little slice of our life
We hold in this now
Let’s choose to make the best
Of the moment at hand.

Creative possibilities
The words below are a testament of our limitless possibilities of thoughts occurring in the flow.
Each stanza is simply my comment for a comment to my post
But interestingly they combined in the creative possibilities.
Infinite is the potential in the possibilities.
And possibilities, to be explored
Are awaiting our awarenes
To be expansive and inclusive
To be acknowledged and accepting .
To reach beyond the dimensions
Of the known to the unknown…
So much creativity in possibilities
After all Creativity is a spiritual journey
In surrender to the unknown
In acceptance of inspiration
Invoke the divinity in the flow.

Heart of Peace
Cultivating inner peace
Begins with the awareness
Of your own breath
Just for a moment
Take a pause and reflect
On the inhaled breath
You cannot hold it much longer
You have to let it go
Likewise to this
Think of all the conflicts
Of the storms raging within you
Think of burdens weighing you down
How long do you choose to carry them.
You have to let it go, one day or another
Why not now, and live free
Sensing the lightness of being.
You have One life one heart.
Choose to live life with heartfelt peace.

Take what you need!
Take what you need…
Love and hope to bridge the divide
Faith and patience to move beyond
Courage and understanding to dare
Peace and passion to create some more
Healing and strength to help yourself
Beauty and freedom to enjoy this now!
Take what you need
But always remember…
Wiser to take that which we feel we really need this moment and maintain the state of positive abundance for others too.
After all there is so much good within all already!
So simply take what you really need.

Do you agree?
The first step
Often taken in blind faith
In love and expectations
To experience lifes best moments
With or without a backstep
With or without fear and doubt
On some corner of the mind & heart
Yet a step ahead in time
Makes all the difference
Between thinking and doing
For action speaks louder than words.

Serenity of Wisdom
In being conscious of the peace
Available in this now
Awareness improves .
In being conscious of our decisions
Available to us as choices
Awareness improves
In being true to one self
In acceptance and acknowledgement
Of the uncertainties of life itself
Awareness improves
In conscious practices of awareness
There is serenity of wisdom.

A sense of courteousness envelopes you when you feel grateful for everything…
It’s beautiful to feel so!
