Sitting in the garden, Sipping a cup of hot brew, Embracing the morning rays, Swaying trees with chirping birds, Being around with beloved. It is the little things in life.
Happy faces, helping hands, To hold u back when in need. Encouraging words to bring u back. With a smile to renew energy. It is the little things in life.
A good night’s sleep, after a hard day’s work, A content mind, that never asks for more, Sharing joys with children’s laughter around, Having gratitude without solitude. It is the little things in life.
Simple joys of life Nothing extra-ordinary; But aren’t these exquisite?
According to an old Native American legend, one day there was a big fire in the forest. All the animals fled in terror in all directions, because it was a very violent fire. Suddenly, the jaguar saw a hummingbird pass over his head, but in the opposite direction. The hummingbird flew towards the fire! Whatever happened, he wouldn’t stop. Moments later, the jaguar saw him pass again, this time in the same direction as the jaguar was walking. He could observe this coming and going, until he decided to ask the bird about it, because it seemed very bizarre behavior. “What are you doing, hummingbird?” he asked. “I am going to the lake,” he answered, “I drink water with my beak and throw it on the fire to extinguish it.” The jaguar laughed. ‘Are you crazy? Do you really think that you can put out that big fire on your own with your very small beak?’ ‘No,’ said the hummingbird, ‘I know I can’t. But the forest is my home. It feeds me, it shelters me and my family. I am very grateful for that. And I help the forest grow by pollinating its flowers. I am part of her and the forest is part of me. I know I can’t put out the fire, but I must do my part.’ At that moment, the forest spirits, who listened to the hummingbird, were moved by the bird and its devotion to the forest, miraculously they sent a torrential downpour, which put an end to the great fire. The Native American grandmothers would occasionally tell this story to their grandchildren, then conclude with, “Do you want to attract miracles into your life? Do your part.” “You have no responsibility to save the world or find the solutions to all problems—but to attend to your particular personal corner of the universe. As each person does that, the world saves itself.’”
If someone asks your help remember this story.
A lovely read I simply had to share. I am doing my bit…
Imagining peace Soothing the spirit Calming the senses A river of joy flows through In the sweet sounds of music Memories of many melodious moments Fleeting by in the harmony of the flow…
Unlike many, We are alive to see the sun, hale n healthy. What more reason is needed to celebrate.
Let the bitterness of the past Dissolve in the darkness of the night. Like a new dawn, new beginnings, new hopes, new effort to make it a day with positivities and possibilities.
Step forward, With grit and gratitude.
Each moment is special . Miracles can happen in any moment.
Life is such that it changes in every now. Recognise the little things The sweet memories from the past Popping up in your mind. As you find your self Visiting your thoughts Sense the smile it brings to you. And at other times your memory Can make you melancholic In thoughts of dreams unfulfilled Perhaps circumstances alter life. Attribute it to life Change is the only constant Trust life to deliver well Acknowledge & accept the new, Find the delightful in it. Free your mind, sense gratitude Let go preconceived notions Find joy that is awaiting you.
As a life coach my experiences over the years with my clients comes with many learnings. As each life is unique and so are their circumstances. To get any further into coaching it’s important to understand where they are and for them to acknowledge it
Creating a safe space is a prerequisite.
There is a simple yet empowering and activity that can be used… Its called ‘What makes my heart sing? It is a powerful exploration into what brings them joy and fulfilment, it helps create safe and supportive and active listening space by building trust It’s quite simple to facilitate Begin with introduction to explain the activity. Ask them to reflect on life moments, they felt in a flow state or felt truly alive_and iovful.
Then as a life coach you help facilitate how these experiences are interconnected to their values and discuss how they can begin to incorporate more of this into their lives And finally also help them create an action plan towards the same.
