Strengthen your feet

Sitting for long hours at work can be rather stressful for those who have sedentary work. In such cases taking good care of your feet health is very important for your heart and overall health.

What can you do besides wearing comfortable shoes, soaking your feet in warm salt water after work,
massaging your feet from time to time.

However when at work you can
incorporate a simple practice of taking a short walk every one hour to break monotony and reduce the impact of long hours of sitting in a chair.

As a Ballroom dance teacher I used some simple props for my students to help strengthen their feet.

Elevating your feet when ever possible, can reduce pressure on the blood vessels, lowering fatigue and release stress.

One is simply rolling a tennis ball under your feet for a few times in a day to release the strain and
tension.

Another easy way is to
have a small terry towel under
your feet and to try to lift it by
scrunching your toes.lt helps
tone, stretch & ease your feet
muscles.

They are both easy to carry and can help you do a feet workout as you work.

Do try and let me know if it helps.

Music & moods

Play on…

When you are in the mood for music, play on

When you are feeling low, play on

When you are exhausted and tired and you want to revive your mood play on

into to change your mood & manage
emotions and lift your spirits.

Take some time to create an upbeat
playlist that perks you up and
engerizes you and get up from your

Happy hearts

A woman whose smile is open and whose expression is glad has a kind of beauty no matter what she wears.
Anne Roiphe

Nice quote. But it is one sided. For I think it’s likewise for any one. Man or woman. A happy spirit makes others happy.

Wonder why it’s assumed that only women need to smile, is it OK for men to be grumpy?

A smiling face no matter man woman, child or a pet makes way for a beautiful blessed day!

Let’s make it more inclusive
Lets value the beauty of smiles and it’s corelation to happy relationships.

Seasons Greetings

Getting things done?

The busier a person seems

The less the person works

The more they delegate

For they value of time

And getting things done on time.

They believe in themselves

And take themselves lightly.

How often have you wondered

How some people manage it all

People rushing between deadlines

People having meetings with them

Continously consistently

And yet they appear unruffled

With a great sense of humor

A smile playing on their faces

And steel in their nerves

It is all about their organisation

Of things that matter on priority

And the ability to delegate

That makes things happen.

One person cannot accomplish

As much as a team of people

Dedicated to a purpose

Built by a determined leader.

Who believes, ‘I can’

For then the quantity of work

Gets improved by the quality…

What are your thoughts? Do share.

Memorable moments

There are always special moments in every one’s life
Making life meaningful and memorable
Often it’s pure serendipity…
When your memory jogs you to remember such a moment.

What makes the memory strong?
What you are associating it with,
That is what makes the memory stronger.

Next time pay attention to whatever you want to remember.
What emotions and feelings can you associate with it?
As your visualisation gets stronger
Your memory gets better and will fade lesser in time.

Now remember to visualise with vibrance.
Choose as you please,
Scents & fragrances of places
Nature & friendships
Colours of Emotions
In all its vividity &feelings.

Soon you will build on all the happy times.
Keep adding your treasure chest of memorable moments.

Someday you will be thankful for it.

Bloom in Resilience

Moving beyond….bloom again

Did something happen?
Did you get hurt?
Are you in pain?
Do you keep hurting
Time and time again
Still thinking of it
Is it the circumstances
That repeat itself?
Or is it you who has to change?

Are you ready?
To work on your own self?

Cultivate your inner strength
Release let go pain
Let go slights & insults
Step by step
Bit by bit
Acknowledge the hurt
But overcome it
In practice learn to flow over it
And once you do
You move over it
Care to ask yourself
What is the hurt all about?
Where is it hurting the most?
Whatever your answer
Release it consciously
Let it go…
For the now is meant to change
Such is the truth of nature.

Its your life
You are responsible
To create a garden of your life
Make sure you strengthen
The walls with gratitude for life
Value the life in every now
Bloom some more
Be the best you can be!

What is travel to you?

To travel
Can be about discovery
Of the old in the new places
Leading you to pathways
That takes you back to your self

To travel
Can be a sensing of serendipity.
A feeling of dejavue
A memorable journey
Unexpectedly unto yourself.

To travel
Can be to witness
The stark reality of life
Perhaps a jolt of reality
Of places and people
As they are in comparison to what was once imagination.

To travel
Can be to learn and unlearn
To connect us to this now
With the truths of things
In places we visit
Know and unknown.

Keep traveling far and near to find yourself a little more every time.

To you my readers

Every day I write
It’s been so for more than six years now
I don’t plan on what to write
I just put the words as they come
But somehow from somewhere
From deep within they flow
Through me…
And then one look at what I wrote
I get the title immediately
Many times the title comes first
And I begin to write

And then I just happen to share with you all my readers
Some of you engage with me all most daily

And I am so full of Gratitude for your presence here.

Thankful for your likes and comments
You readers really make my day
Especially when you leave a kind & thoughtful word.
It’s truly special to see an old reader drop by chance and connect again
It’s a wonderful feeling…
When at the fag end of the day
I sit to read your thoughts
It makes me motivated to want to write some more.

Words are all I have
To share with you
I hope to share the best of them & I hope to read and learn from yours…
And hope to stay connected
With you in times to come
For I believe to share is to learn some more…

Thank you for the love you share here.

On Spirituality

You can’t talk Spirituality
You got to live it.
Often when life takes you far
Far away from it…

You got to know
The divine that you seek
Is with you in every moment
Your actions thoughts and words
Decides the distance between
You and your spiritual self.
