The vibrancy of nature
The adaptability of creation
The constancy of change
The arresting colours
Unshackling of spirit
The inter connections
Soulful vibes and sounds
Imparting wisdom profound

A scent that calls in a deeper breath…while savoring the sensation…
‘Petrichor’ is one of the fragrances that is earthy yet divine to me . There is something grounding and yet ethereal in its ephemeral smell. Taking me to places and spaces I cannot fathom, yet moves me.Evoking emotions in the memories and invoking pleasant feelings of playing in the fields following the first rain. I am also reminded of green woody forests,with tall trees, where the air is pristine and pure.
I sense the freshness of first rain on earth in its smell enveloping me. Just a whiff and it transports me to many realms of my own being, as it invigourates me.
I can never stop appreciating it… and can never have enough of it.
Do you like the fresh fragrance of first rain on dry earth?
What emotions are evoked in you?

To breath well is a blessing . For every breath is never to be taken for granted.
In every breath we take
Let’s value this gift of life.
Acknowledging our breath
Lets breathe in ease .
Lets take a moment
In between breaths
Pause with ease
Relax the self
To let go with ease
And repeat…
Every breath matters.

Perfection is never the inspiration for nothing is perfect always.
Acknowledging ones imperfections & managing it with grace is true inspiration.
The need for perfection creates undue pressure. Being able to work on the journey without undue pressure can be joyful journey.

On Coaches & Coaching
At times just when a coach knows it’s progress the client wants to give up.
They may feel the changes are not enough or there may be other personal factors that may be inhibiting their success. It is important to acknowledge their emotions at the moment and celebrate small wins precisely showing how far they have come. As a coach being empathic & encouraging while being flexible and adaptable as you adjust strategies for the way forward aids and facilitates progress.
Often clients face doubt and overwhelm at some point or the other. It is important then to remind them of their why and guide them to stay on course.
Your thoughts are welcome.

You awaken
When you are ready to release
That which holds you back.
In acknowledging
Is the allowing
Of new possibilities
And sense the light within.
Every once in a while
It’s good to unshackle
Simply ask your self
What am I holding back?

We humans are warring
With our own gifts
If oceans could speak
They would call for peace
We need peace with nature
In and around us
Or it will overcome us.
Let us not plunder our earth
For personal gain
Let us not ruin its resources
And tilt the balance
Flood and famine
Are the price we pay
Let there be balance
Let us not treat it with disdain
Water is precious
Without it we cannot live
Nor can our Earth.

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.

What was freshness of springtime
Matures with the changing seasons
At times hot dry or humid summers makes life unbearable
Soon the downpour of rains flood the parched land with greens
Another autumn as orange rust leaves renew themselves
Winter chills brings it’s own white snow at will
Trees bereft of leaves lay bare their dark branches
Awaiting for another change of season.
And life goes on…

Be so engaged with your life that you take all of you in whatever you do!
Find yourself!
How involved are you in life?
In your passion?
In your engagement?
In your purpose?
In your life’s moments?
What is it that makes you go on
Taking all of you
Into whatever you do?
Perhaps…
You have an answer within
You are already on your path!
Creating anything worth having
Can take all of you
To be involved to be engaged
With a purpose that drives you…
Beyond yourself!
And you find yourself!

Trust & Idea sharing
Building trust creates a rapport for greater communication.
Besides listening actively, addressing any issues and finding resolutions together immediately builds trust in a team. Being authentically approachable adds to the trust. Creating a transparent process and protocols for idea sharing helps. Showing appreciation for the ideas generated brings forth confidence to share more. Most importantly, giving credit where it is due by acknowledgements fosters trustful teams. Creating a responsive, cohesive and collaborative team requires transperncy in purpose.

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…

Inculcating a habit of listening to music regularly, or even practicing music by learning to sing or playing an instrument, can improve your creativity.
Learning anything new can spark new neural pathways and bridge old learnings in associations to ignite unique creative expressions.
As far as music it is a holistic experience with benefits much beyond its entertainment factor. The right music can heal and regenerate cells in our body.
Music can be a healing medicine for the body, mind and spirit. Personally, like for many of you, I love many art forms, like music, dance and painting, writing and singing because they have an immensely positive effect on me. It makes me whole again, ready to face a new day… For instance, I am fond of different types of music at different times of the day…often I sense how refreshed I feel after listening or singing to them.
At home every once in a while my daughter and I find singing mashups of old and new songs together on the Karaoke very rejuvenating…One thing leads to another, humming or singing some melodies while going through the day, makes the moments feel light. I also find listening to gentle, soft instrumental music while painting very enjoyable.
What are your experiences with music?
When was the last time you heard your favorite songs?
When did you do something creative while listening to music?

Peace is a force of nature
Creating strength within you
To face life with a calm presence
Unrattled and focused in approach
When peace flows in you
A river of joy flows through you
Cultivating compassion
And connection to all of nature.
In the peace of mind and heart
The spirit is at ease
It is gentle in its presence
Yet creates nerves of steel
Peace dares to be at ease.
In the journey through life.
Such is the power of peace.
