What are you feeding your mind?

Master your mind,” they say,
“Before it masters you.”


Acknowledge the truths of life,
For the mind creates
Countless thoughts.


Know the value of mindfulness.
Being mindful is about self-awareness…
To master the mind,
Master your thoughts.


Become aware of this now.
Whatever this moment is,
Sense it, and breathe in it.
Feel it, and be alive in it.


For the truth lives in every moment.
What you decide to do in this “now”
Has the power to change and rearrange
Your state of being.


Life is precious.
Have faith and trust.
Stay hopeful with every breath,
For the truth is, you can.
After all, the mind works
On exactly what you feed it.

Making sense of it all… 

Experience eats degrees for breakfast.

Technology tosses experience and degrees topsy turvy.

Al turns skills redundant and age immaterial.


Wisdom turns knowledge into learning.

For learning never stops.

Humility allows for growth…

Making sense of it all.

The Game Changer

Often it is in the adversity,

you meet your true strengths.

In the tests of life,

you find your true self.

That which you discover

in these challenges,

arrives in the journey

to steer you on your path.

So hold on, in trust & faith.

For no matter what,

all in not lost.

You will find it in you,

to begin anew. 

In experiences of adversity, 

you meet yourself.

And that’s the gamechanger.

A question to my reader…

If you were to think of the past challenges,what comes to mind as a strength you uncovered about your self that you wouldn’t  have found any other way ?

Creating Resilience

Resilience is developed in time.

In every fall.

In every blow

In every painful experience.

The power rests with you to work on yourself.

Resilience is about nurturing  what is beautiful within you,no matter, while battling  the situation at hand.

Resilience is the art of appreacting the ordinary  moments that you have with you.

Resilience is being able to smile from the heart,  knowing your circumstances dont define you.

In your deepest breakdown there is a choice to emerge  from it stronger.

While resilience is in learning from experiences and  strengthening & refining the self for the better. Resilience is also about allowing life to happen…

Bending when necessary like a blade of grass without breaking  like the mighty oak tree,

Resilience is creating yourself  in such times without fear of the inevitable, for change is part of the flow of life.

Resilience means, you are very much present and it means  you are evolving from your experiences for the better.

In times of being resilience

You become the master of your life.

You steer on in faith

no matter the rudder is way off.

Knowing  you are meant to be, do all that you are ordained to.

Yet resilience m is not blind faith but a faith born out of inner self belief. In knowing  that the road is yet to clear, you are ready for possibilities using the time to see options and new perspectives

You are like an artist creating  something  from what seems to be blank and formless. Yet resilience is full of potential.And in exercising this muscle of resilience  results are awaiting you in trust & time.

Trust that this very resilience is in you and in me and it surfaces in our difficulties to tide us through in time.

What is resilience to you?

When did you last feel your need to exercise your resilience?

Do share your thoughts how you create and develop your resilience muscle.

The Quality Of The Spirit

You are not defined

By riches or possessions.

You are defined

By the attitude you carry.

Anchored in faith

No matter the storm.

You are defined

By the energy you emanate…

In the choices you make,

In the decisions  you take.

Way beyond circumstances.

It is a quality of the spirit.

Greater the refinement,

Greater the grace.

Savvy Raj

A question  in reflection…

When the world outside gets chaotic, what is that within you that keeps you anchored?

The Power of Calm

There is charisma in calm

It’s the power of calm

In life’s highs and lows.

In calm lies confidence

Invoking assurance

Being calm in a conversation

Evokes the energy of stillness

Emits vibrancy devoid of agitation.

In the calm there is depth of  awareness

In the center of calm

Is potential  to assimilate

No matter the chaos

You find equilibrium.

When was the last time you felt the charismatic power of calm?

What does calm feel like to you in this now?

What is the distance  between you and your sense of calm?

Where & how do you think you can find your calm?

The morning moments

My morning  moments have the preciousness of calm for me.I choose dawn to intend the calm for the day ahead. In the quiet moments of dawn where the world is still sleeping, I find my creative state of flow. Although I have been able to connect  with my calm through the day, the vibes of this part of the day resonate so much. The early morning  sets the tone of the day for me.

How do you relate to the calm of dawn?

How do you sense the power of calm?

The Gift Of Change

Here I share one of my own paintings and a personal  favorite fron my collection.
Savvy Raj

In the vortex of life

arrives the gift of changes;

the breaking of the bubbles,

Of long held beliefs,

Of false ego and resistance

Of fear that limits.

Like the wind that’s too fierce  to contain…

Cleaning the cobwebs of confusion.

And life transforms for the better.

Pockets of peace

Pockets of peace

Are powerful healers

That you can invoke

Anytime,  anywhere.

Identify your pockets of peace

In a day, times that feel peaceful

Is it early morning, noon

Or is it evening or night?

What places makes you feel at ease?

Mountains, oceans or forests

Or do you enjoy a quiet open space…

Like looking at the vast blue sky,

Or the twinkling stars at night.

Do you breathe easy in silence,

Or do you feel lonely for some company?

Does, being with animals birds and nature

Feel peaceful to you?

Alone or with company,

Find your pockets of peace

And sense the connection

Whenever & wherever.

Inside outside

Inside outside

Quick fixes  are only a band aid.Temporary ways are not the answer. It is about creating a simple routine that is consistent.

Zoom beyond small niggles. See the bigger picture to understand the truths of  reality.Distil it all for a take away.

You are not the problem.

Care for yourself. You can build yourself. Be kind to yourself. Overdoing anything  overwhelms. Choose consistency over intensity.

Change your life for the better by doing something good for yourself .Through small changes that change your relationship with who you are.

Savvy

In reflection…

Real growth isn’t a battle to be won through self-punishment. It is a relationship to be nurtured through self-kindness. In shifting how you relate to yourself through small, daily, consistent choices,perspectives change.

Life transforms from inside out.

Dear Reader,

When things feel out of balance, what is that one quick fix you find yourself reaching for?

And would you choose consistency  over intensity?

And if so in what ways… do share.

Dare To Be

You ask questions

that you already know

the answers to.

Again and again.

Hoping to confirm

the way to yourself   

And that, its all right.

Dare to be all that

you know you actually are.

Live life love life

In it, you will find answers 

And yourself again.

Savvy

A few reflections…

The Echo: What is one question you find yourself asking others repeatedly, even though deep down you already know the answer?

The Permission: What are you waiting to hear when you seek external validation? What changes if you give that exact permission to yourself today?

The Dare: What does “daring to be all that you know you actually are” look like for you in this current chapter of your life?

Welcoming the contrasts

Balance

Such a fine word

Yet much is the wisdom

In the art of balance.

We are healthier

In the balance

Of body mind & spirit.

Tilting to extremes

Brings along dullness

Or extreme pressure.

In simple realization

Of the wisdom of equanimity

We allow life to unfold

For change is the only constant.

Our senses are enhanced

As we continue to balance the unexpected

And welcome the contrasts.

Savvy

Listen to the full audio  reflection on this concept in my latest episode of The Path of Clarity Podcast on Spotify.

Its amazing isn’t it, how one thought leads to another. This poem has sensory roots emerging from sweet and spice. Do listen and share your thoughts.

Recreate

Sometimes the best of efforts lead nowhere.

You find youself back in the same place

Feeling lost and helpless.

Perhaps its time to recreate yourself.

Stop reminiscing in the past, for it is gone in time;

There is no point in playing it over in your mind.

Instead invest that energy in recreating from where you are.

Immense are the possibilities, if only you choose to see.

Cultivate the spirit within to shine again,

Stay centered, in touch with your strengths again.

Aim to simply accomplish one task today, however small.

Rise beyond your past. 

Become all that you are meant to be…

Recreate and rediscover yourself.

Savvy

Listen 

Have you ever poured your absolute best efforts into a project, a habit, or a dream, only to lift your head and realize you are standing right back at the starting line?

In my next episode on my podcast journey Path of  Clarity I explore the quiet frustration of feeling stalled and why looking backward only drains the energy you need for today.

It’s time to stop replaying yesterday and gently begin the process of recreating yourself, exactly from where you stand.

Positive psychological shifts in thinking happens when you complete just one micro-task today.
Move gently, stay centered, and rediscover your strengths.
