Allow yourself spirit to emanate joy
Allow the body to feel its contentment
Allow the self to embody peace
Allow the heart to open itself to possibilities
Allow the self to move in space and sense the freedom it offers.
Just be and allow
Every minute is precious
Every now matters
Every moment is new
Make the most of it
Life is what you make of it.
Choose well.
And reap well in time.

Self care isn’t selfish
Infact it’s is the need of times
In this fast paced world
That stresses you out
At work or even at home…
It is time to destress
And sustain yourself .
Ways to protect your energy…
If you find yourself running
From one task to another
Without a breather.
May be its time to ask yourself…
When was the last time
You had a hearty laugh?
You took time to treat yourself,
To all that you are fond of?
When was the last time
You took yourself out?
Just follow your instincts
And do all that you can
To make your spirit come alive.
And it’s truly ok to let steam off
eveey once in a while.
You are your responsibility
Protect your energy
And sustain yourself.
So you are angry?
Now what?
Do you think it is helping you ?
For anger never helps
It only hurts .
Here are six things you can do for balancing your emotions and feeling better.
1.Become Aware that you are reacting than responding in your anger is the first step
2.Counting backwards from 20 to 1.
3. Removing yourself from the place you are feeling angry even for a short while by going for a short walk helps settle your emotions.
4. Switch words is a technique to use feeling oriented words to create powerful change of emotions with imagery to manage anger.
For example a positive word like Happy can evoke different feelings.
Or words like ‘take it easy ‘can evoke a sense of ease.
5. Better still is taking to chanting mantras, or hearing your favorite upbeat music , or even Journaling.
6. If nothing else imagining ocean tides in a flow and breathing deeply, in and out even for a few minutes eases the tense body & mind.
Remember to acknowledge your emotions as there is more harm in suppression. As you find healthy pathways to manage your anger, you bring wellbeing into your life
Live life lovingly💙

If ever you are in a position where you are hurt and helpless and want to help yourself out of this situation check on your own behavior
Are you speaking and sharing more than you should?
Are you over explaining and try to match up to anothers expectations and not valuing your own strengths?
Are you defending yourself when the other person refuses to understand anothers perspective?
Are you too sensitive and taking things personally when actually the source of the issues or the problem is not you at all?
Often it is self awareness that is the first step towards bettering your life.
A self check to see your reactions is definitely a way to improving how you handle and manage difficult people in life.
Tbe way to make life favorable to you , is in living as if all is rigged in your favor.

Life is like that
Fragile and fragmented
There is much left unsaid undone
There is much left incomplete
For we are not perfect beings
Fragility is a truth of our life
But life continues ….
However much we may think we have given our best
There is always an expectation
Some how somewhere
That is yet left unfulfilled
There is always something more
That we need to have done.
A battle we need to have fought
A voice we should have raised
A devil we need to have dared
And annihilated
It happens in one way or another.
But we can only learn
By living our life forward
And while unfortunately we cannot go and undo all the past
We certainly can empower ourself
To rise no matter the storms .
And right the wrongs in time.
Leaving the world a little better than before .
I wrote this as a heartfelt offering of support and encouragement in hope to those going through or remembering a traumatic past.
While life is fragile
Hope is here to stay .

The King and the Weaver
One day, a king went hunting. On his journey, he stayed overnight at the house of a weaver who lived along the way. The weaver and his family did not know that their guest was the king. They assumed he was just a hunter and offered him a place to stay.
The next morning, when the king woke up, he saw the weaver starting his work. The weaver had a rope tied to his left hand. Curious, the king asked, “What is that rope tied to your hand?”
The weaver replied, “This rope is to rock the cradle. If the baby cries, I pull this rope to soothe it.”
The king then noticed a long stick near the weaver and asked, “What is this stick for?”
The weaver said, “My wife has spread grains outside to dry in the sun. I’ve tied a black flag to the other end of this stick. When I wave it, birds don’t come near the grains.”
The king also saw small bells tied around the weaver’s waist and asked, “What are these bells for?”
The weaver explained, “We have a mouse in the house. When it comes near, I shake these bells, and it runs away.”
The king then noticed a few children standing outside the weaver’s house and asked, “What are they doing there?”
The weaver replied, “While weaving, I teach them whatever I know. They listen to my lessons from outside.”
The king asked, “Why don’t you let them inside?”
The weaver answered, “Their ears are here to listen to the lessons, but I also make them knead the mud in front of the house with their feet while listening. This way, they learn and help at the same time.”
The king was amazed at how the weaver managed so many tasks simultaneously. The weaver added, “That’s not all. My wife is a Greek woman. Every day, she writes ten Greek words on a slate for me to learn. While working, I also practice those words.”
The weaver demonstrated that if one desires, it is possible to learn, teach, work, and take care of the household all at once. His diligence left the king astonished.
I received this story in Tamil but since I wanted to share across this here, this is an AI translation.
There is so much to understand and interpret from this….
Here are my thoughts on this…
Cups of time…
If there is will & dedicated intent
Much can be accomplished.
Our life is a precious gift
So much to discover & learn from
And there is so much for each of us to do.
Let’s fill the cups of time
Doing the best we can
Let’s never waste our life away…
That is the way to thrive.

When you move
Move with energy
Allow the movements
To flow through you
And from you harmoniously
As you move you will sense
The effortlessness of movements
With practice it becomes a flow

A beautiful read this morning came my way through a social media forward from my mother.
It’s truly meaningful.
The Final Whistle…
I was watching a local football match on a school ground.
I asked a boy sitting nearby, “What’s the score of your team?”
With a smile, the boy replied, “We are at 0, the opponents are at 3.”
I said, “Don’t lose hope, young man.”
The boy looked at me with a puzzled expression, as if questioning my understanding of his determination.
He then gave me a profound response:
“Why should I lose hope, uncle, when the referee hasn’t blown the final whistle yet?”
“I trust my team and my coach completely.”
“We will definitely win,” he said confidently and continued watching the game.
To my amazement, the match ended 5-4 in favor of the boy’s team.
As the victory was announced, the boy waved enthusiastically at me and left with a bright smile.
I was astonished, struck by his unwavering belief and confidence. His faith was so beautiful, so deep, it left me contemplating.
That night, as I returned home, his question kept resonating in my mind:
“Why should I lose hope when the final whistle hasn’t been blown?”
Life is like a game…
While we are still in it, why do we give up so often?
When our final whistle hasn’t sounded, why should we despair?
The truth is, many of us blow our own whistle prematurely.
We leave the field before the game is over.
But as long as life is with us, nothing is impossible.
Whether our time is half over, three-quarters over, or just beginning, that doesn’t matter.
What matters is that we don’t blow the whistle on ourselves before the time is up.
The referee of our game is God.
Have faith in Him and in yourself.
So, let’s remember that the final whistle hasn’t sounded yet,
and let’s enjoy every moment of life like an exciting game!
Life is now.
Every now births hope
For a beautiful future
The lessons in the living
Gives goals to aspire for…
In every moment of Inspiration
Is the excitement of possibilities
Of all its yet to unfold.
What excites you about future?

This morning I witnessed
A glorious vision awaiting me…
The ‘Rays of the Sun’
Sharing light, hope
And blessings through the trees
Energizing the spaces
In and around me…
Such a picture perfect moment.
While sensing the Grace of the Sun.

I came across these lines this morning…
We either make ourselves miserable ,
or we make ourselves strong.
The amount of work is the same

What is the energy you sense ?
Are you feeling strengthened by it?
Your answers will reveal much to you.
