Self compassion is about treating yourself with kindness.
Put your thoughts in perspective.
Failure is an opportunity to learn and grow. Allow yourself to acknowledge defeat but not get caught up in it
Learn to cope and grow beyond the setbacks.
And try to be an encourager to yourself & be a friend!

An interesting read today definitely worth a share!
Please take time to read the following article:
THE BRAIN OF AN ELDERLY PERSON.
The director of the George Washington University College of Medicine argues that the brain of an elderly person is much more plastic than is commonly believed. At this age, the interaction of the right and left hemispheres of the brain becomes harmonious, which expands our creative possibilities. That is why among people over 60 you can find many personalities who have just started their creative activities.
Of course, the brain is no longer as fast as it was in youth. However, it wins in flexibility. That is why, with age, we are more likely to make the right decisions and are less exposed to negative emotions. The peak of human intellectual activity occurs at about 70 years old, when the brain begins to work at full strength.
Over time, the amount of myelin in the brain increases, a substance that facilitates the rapid passage of signals between neurons. Due to this, intellectual abilities are increased by 300% compared to the average.
And the peak of active production of this substance falls on 60-80 years of age. Also interesting is the fact that after 60 years, a person can use 2 hemispheres at the same time. This allows you to solve much more complex problems.
Professor Monchi Uri from the University of Montreal believes that the brain of an elderly person chooses the least energy-intensive path, cutting unnecessary and leaving only the right options for solving the problem. A study was conducted in which different age groups took part. Young people were confused a lot when passing the tests, while those over 60 made the right decisions.
Now let’s look at the features of the brain at the age of 60-80. They are really rosy.
FEATURES OF THE BRAIN OF AN ELDERLY PERSON.
👀 Information!
A large study in the United States found that:
▪The most productive age of a person is from 60 to 70 years;
▪ The 2nd most productive human stage is the age from 70 to 80 years old;
▪ 3rd most productive stage – 50 and 60 years old.
▪ Before that, the person has not yet reached his peak.
▪The average age of the Nobel Prize laureates is 62;
▪The average age of the presidents of the 100 largest companies in the world is 63 years;
▪The average age of pastors in the 100 largest churches in the United States is 71;
▪The average age of dads is 76 years.
▪ This confirms that a person’s best and most productive years are between 60 and 80 years of age.
▪This study was published by a team of doctors and psychologists in the NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE.
▪They found that at 60 you reach the peak of your emotional and mental potential, and this continues until you are 80.
▪ Therefore, if you are 60, 70 or 80 years old, you are at the best level of your life.
Pass on this information to your family and friends aged 60, 70 and 80 so that they will be proud of their age.
Step up on a soul shaking stir to free the mind, to realize the calm that actually is this moment.💙
Make this moment beautiful!
Have a beautiful day!

Exactly six years ago, I was approached by my friend now, Maria Teresa to write a chapter and contribute to her book from the perspective of healing through the art of movements.
Privileged to have contributed my bit to this book on PTSD and how Dance can play a vital role in reducing the symptoms of the same . Available on Amazon now at http://tinyurl.com/qbcvqjs

Listening is about attention
And being present wholeheartedly
Respect is a two faced coin
You gotta give to get
Sincere attention is sincere respect!

Cherish the gift of movement…
Isn’t it wonderful to be able to dance…. to tell your body what you want it to do?
If you are a dancer respect the gift of dance in you .
Even if you are not a trained dancer, acknowledge the ability of expressions and respect the beauty of movements in them .
After all we have a beating heart ….We are all gifted with movements . Let’s cherish the gifts of both the movements and moments in time.

Life is a canvas

A fun share
I received a marriage invitation. In the end was printed. ” Your presence itself is a gift. We don’t want any gifts at the marriage.”
I read it again and again. Was getting confused…
Finally I came to the conclusion, that I am not invited. And decided not to attend.

Every now and then
As the world becomes a burden
We adults need reminders
To notice the enthusiasm in children
A child teaches many things
That we could learn from
Happiness is a state of mind
Engagement is being in this now
Perseverance is a journey towards success
Today is a celebration of childrens day
Am thankful for all the lessons learned
And am grateful for the new learnings.

Sharing this heartfelt read…
Gratitude is gratefulness
In acceptance & acknowledgement
In sensing grace
Bestowed upon us
No storm is too strong in its wake.
In deepest turmoil
Choose the power of Gratitude
For in its positive intentions
And glory of goodwill
Life turns harmonious
Every things aligns perfectly
And music resounds its magical melodies
All is well once again.
Glory to the Gladiator of Hearts
The chaperone of connectedness
That seeks to invoke the strength
In these interconnects
For no man is too strong
As much as all of us together
I bow to the Grace of Gratitude

A major chunk of our life is spent at work
Work towards it through education
Working on the job or creating it
Work is best done when work is play
Life challenges every one of us
Yet in adaptability and flexibility
Work becomes less of burden
And more bearable.
Work is important
Worship it respect it.
Yet understand working on your career
Is one part of it
There are other parts of life
To juggle with
They matter just as much
If not more
It is in you to create priorities
The way you choose to live
Is a reflection of yourself
Enjoy what you do
In every now
Be present with all of you
After all life is a game.

There are certain good things
Which manifests themselves
In this journey of life
But to do so you need to allow
The pathway to unfold the potential
Just care to be open to possibilities
Allow space for new
Allow hope to find you
Make way for the good energies
Make an intention to believe in yourself
Your life is as good as you allow it to be.
The choice rests with you

Speaking of my passions…
As for me beyond traveling, learning, writing, reading & writing & sharing a few musings every day, it certainly is a mix of different things…
From creating Art to Painting, Training Consultancy, Ballroom Dancing ,Volleyball, Poetry, as much as conversations with people. Infact I am passionate about whatever work I am doing in the moment. I have enjoyed giving it my full attention with all of me.
Everything connects
Every day is full of new learnings in whatever one does. And have often sensed the strength of the interconnects in these passionate pursuits.
Have had many personal experiences where I have sensed how in the heart of the arts is all science and the core of science is all art.
Whenever I have dedicatedly pursued any work or hobby with passionate perseverance I have found that I have all the patience at my disposal to nurture what I do… Life is far more interesting and even bearable as you are driven by your calling or purpose. Am sure you can relate to this somewhere in your life.
Would you care to add a few of your passions?
