I think if you exercise, your state of mind – my state of mind – is usually more at ease, ready for more mental challenges. Once I get the physical stuff out of the way it always seems like I have more calmness and better self-esteem.Stone Gossard
Well said and true for it only shows how much our mind and body is integrated.

Beauty is a very subjective term inspite of all the objectification that goes on in the name of beauty.
Beautiful you
Every age has a charm
Of its own doing
Every life is beautiful
In its own way!
What to speak of a lifetime?

Came across this interesting forward of 10 steps to self care. All relevant to one’s overall well-being.
Self care is very important for your mind body integration.
Self care is all encompassing. From physical to mental, it is about holistically addressing the external to internal aspects of Self management.
A few questions to yourself…
Do you think you have been caring for your own body mind and soul?
How much time do you allocate to your self care every day?
What are your ways to Self care? Care to list them?

A heartfelt forward worth a share…

There is always hope
For things to get better
There is always tommorow
Another day full of promise
Keep the faith and trust
It will feel just right.

Every moment offers immense possibilities
In the infinite potential
Those who can focus on what drives them
In passion, trustful patience & dedicated perseverance
Can reach where they choose to go…

Finding the wonderful in every day
Is a lovely idea
But it means you have to remember to look for it
In the daily moments
Within you, in people & things around you
And consistently so…
No matter what who when where and why
And you will be sure to find it.
Lovely idea that makes life wonderful in itself.
Savvy
If only we can remind ourselves
Of the preciousness of this now
We will perhaps be more conscious of how we are
Of how life transforms itself
In living life
In mindful awareness
We perhaps will value
The necessity of gratitude
In our everyday moments
And that every now is precious
Enough to fill with gratitude.
Savvy
You are greater than your circumstances
And powerful than you can ever begin to imagine
And in all having faith trust & self belief by your side gives you the confidence to take a step towards your dreams and say yes to life!

In any organization
When leadership listens
Empathy is nurtured
Safe space is created
Conversations connect
Teams bond in trustfulness
Productivity rises
In balanced motivation
Both intrinsic & external
Work becomes less dense
In collaboration & cooperation
Valuing diversity of potential
Possibilities are explored
Challenges gets simplified
Structure becomes systems
Protocols are in place
Change is acknowledged
In faith goodwill and trust
That we are stronger together
There is unity in diversity
As respect becomes culture.
Trust becomes the way.
Savvy Raj
How do you fill your cup of life?
How often?
What makes you happy?
Filling the cup of life cannot happen
Without making space to enjoy life’s moments
Let the cup of life overflow
In the sharing of joy
The cup of Now:
Create space in your cup of time
For solitude and reflections
Allow yourself to make sense
Of moments without overwhelm.
Take a moment to pause…
And begin to enjoy the sip of this cup in this now.
For life is in this cup of now.
Savvy
There is so much more to thankfulness
Your mind body and spirit
Are integrated in the emotions
Your life becomes more abundant
Your health improves along the way
For you hold not expression or suppress feelings
You appreciate what needs to be appreciated
You create circles of light hope and joy in thankfulness.
Make sure to add yourself in your list of thankfulness.
Savvy
It’s the way of love to accept and allow
It’s the way of love to empower with hope
It’s the way of love to sense pain and pleasure.
It’s the way of love to share from the heart.
It’s the way of love to shine through a smiling heart
For love is the gift of life.
And it’s the way of love to be filled with gratitude
Savvy
In every relationship
Family, friendship or at work
All is a matter of values
We inculcate through life.
When it all starts from respect
And ends with respect.
There is dignity of being
In a world distanced in reality
By technology and internet
Increasing the screentimes
And enslaving people
There is much need
To use it to our advantage
Than be redundant with it.
