Strength of the soul

A glimpse of the intangible

Is often visible through signs

Like the strength of the soul

Appears in true forgiveness

In letting go of  fear of failure

In ability to start all over again

In letting go of negativity

In ability to center the self

In letting go of revenge mentality

In the ability to share kindness

In sensing the lightness of being

In awareness of the bigger picture.

The strength of the soul shines through.

Coherence

A painting by Savvy Raj

When energy aligns

Syncing in synchrony

There is a dance of coherence

Resonance occurs

In these changes

No matter the circumstances

No matter the challenges

Creating connections

Building bridges 

Narrowing gaps 

In understanding

Bettering communication

Everything  comes together

And begins to make sense.

As the words flow

As writers I am pretty sure many of us can relate to this …

A few thoughts on writing and how it helps me every day.

I write with a sincere heart
Honouring the words that flow
Feeling the truth of my potential
As the waves of thoughts
Light my day, along the way…
As much as my spirit & soul
It’s one of my self care routine
To sense & emote and express
Without fear or favour.
So grateful for the blessings,
It gives.
🙏

On writing every day

I have been writing every day for almost a decade now, it has become a well ingrained habit. I thoroughly enjoy my me time. Most days it’s every morning  time that I pen my thoughts,  but I never force it to a particular time. Someday it’s a joy to write  down whenever  I feel the inspiration.

And Inspiration is everywhere

I simply started on a lark and  what is beautiful is, every day there is always something  that inspires the words . And I hope to continue as  long as the words flow…

How has writing improved your life ?

How do you approach your writing?

Entrepreneurship truths

Workers want to be Executives 

Executives  want to be Managers

Managers want to be Leaders

Leaders want to be Founders

Founders want to be Investors

Investors want profits over people.

Truth is…

Even if one of them are there for the right reasons, it starts to make a meaningful difference.

Self Healing

Head to toe

Toe to head

Breathe it out

Let it go..

Heal overwhelm

Heal overthinking

Heal your heart

Heal yourself

In the mixed bag of lides emotions

Some get felt a little too deeply

Embedding  itself into the psyche.

And affecting thoughts & actions

Emotions too need release

Unshackle to let go and free up

Cut the cord of emotions

Before they overwhelm you.

Find some time to breathe it out

To process and reflect & let go

To exhale the unwanted emotions.

And heal your heart .

Daring the unknown

Our conditioning has a role to play in the way we see people and things around us. To trust is to dare into the unknown.

Just read this interesting article …

19 professionals walk through unknown villages for 3 days — without a single rupee | Pune News – The Indian Express

https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/pune/19-professions-walk-through-unknown-villages-for-3-days-without-a-single-rupee-9583205/

Amazing to read about these Braveheart  who dared to experience  first hand  self-belief beyond fear…and who came back enriched with experiences.

Touching to read  about the kindhearted  people who came their way like saviours.

Pretty sure  they may all have had some life altering experiences in one way or another.

Against all odds

Breaking the rut of routine

In forging new pathways

Beyond fear for survival

All preconceived notions fall

In the dare into  the unknown.

All for the better

And sometimes when things don’t go as planned

May be you have been saved from some unknown obstacle

May be it wasn’t the right time

May be its all for the better.

What do you see?

What’s the first thing that comes to mind?

Is it the nature of the land?

Do you sense the sandstorm?

Do you see the vivid colours of the womens clothes juxtaposed against the barren land?

Do you see them huddle together taking refuge with no where to go?

This picture evokes emotions.

The wind, the women

Heads to toe covered 

Yet braving the sun barefoot 

The sand across the land

The parched dry pots.

What else do you see?

Perfect imperfections

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.

What are your thoughts?

Be an encourager

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.

Kindred spirits

Pride makes us artificial

Humility makes us real

Thomas Merton

So a long long time ago when I started sharing my writing skills, I received a beautiful message from a reader, who also introduced Thomas Merton, the poet & monk to me. I was intrigued by his words. And went on to read more. For back then I didn’t know  who Thomas Merton was and had never heard or come across his works.

This morning I came across  the above quote, another gem of a quote from the mystical light of this soul…

There are some souls whose works strike a deep chord without ever meeting them… you sense a connection in their words..

I am grateful in all humility to have come across the profoundness of these kindred spirits. 🙏

To emote is to heal

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.

Thrive in Gratitude

Life hands many a tough lessons in our journeys. But to strive to be strong and tread through it all, not just by surviving the ordeals but thriving takes inner strength in conviction. It helps to focus on your sense of purpose if you have deciphered it by now, else take each moment as momentary.  Know the pain you feel in this now will be gone in the next. This attitude takes you on a spiritual path of letting go. It makes a profound impact in life  as you continue to practise regularly. Regardless of outcomes you are  thriving…in Gratitude for the lessons from life in the living.🙏
