This morning a refreshing conversation with my mother triggered a series of thoughts on different directions in Hindu Scriptures.
Usually there are eight directions depicted in any compass.
She shared how there are ten mentioned directions in the Hindu scriptures and named each of them. Besides the four cardinal and four ordinal directions it’s interesting to note the two additional directions are Urdhva the highest point symbolizes by creator (Brahma) Zenith and Adhah the opposite represented by (Vishnu) the preserver, which call the Nadir.
It was intriguing to note how these preordained guardians of our galaxies play a significant role in Astrology and Cosmology with insights on how everything connects in life and living.
I started researching further trying to understand more. I came across this interesting share…
‘It’s quite intriguing to note how much effort our ancestors put into demystifying the elements of nature & their impact on us,’
I highlighted this line in the above informative article, because the more you learn of this vast ocean of scriptures you realise there is another horizon of understanding that beckons.
But one thing leads to another…
And that’s how the path of learning grows. And everything connects….
Why delegate work, when you can do it on your own. Because it is common sense that with growth, work increases you will need people to get things done. And without trusting people, you cannot build a team that you can trust. A huge part of delegation is about being accountable to get the work done well.
Successful delegation empowers a team. It is about finding the right person or team for the job. Mastering the art of delegation is rewarding in the long term for it develops and builds skills enhances productivity. It validates the values of collaboration and trust to the team hence improves the attitude at work in a team.
Moreover it improves the time management not only for you but for the team and the organisation thereby increasing productivity and this can help find balance in professional work and personal life.
Do you delegate with the right attitude and for the right reasons?
When you are in a position of influence especially as a coach, a trainer you are responsible to aid the development and building up of life. From the life coaching perspective there are many humane standards that help reach the set goals.
As a coach, respect and inclusion are significant for the success of your coaching. It is important to show ‘Respect’ not only for individual or team you are coaching by being unbiased and empathic of their abilities, but also for your time and effort as well as respect for the reason and need for coaching .
As for inclusiveness, without it you cannot build rapport as a coach. Inclusion is also about being attentive and open minded of diverse perspectives and opinions.
Over the decades, coaching individuals and groups as a Dance Educator & Trainer,and a Life Coach, I have had varied experiences of how being inclusive, empathic, open minded to listen and understand, sharing mutual respect has made a positive impact on the coaching process.
Both respect and inclusion can make a meaningful and lasting difference in the lives of those you coach.
Inculcating a habit of listening to music regularly, or even practicing music by learning to sing or playing an instrument, can improve your creativity.
Learning anything new can spark new neural pathways and bridge old learnings in associations to ignite unique creative expressions.
As far as music it is a holistic experience with benefits much beyond its entertainment factor. The right music can heal and regenerate cells in our body.
Music can be a healing medicine for the body, mind and spirit. Personally, like for many of you, I love many art forms, like music, dance and painting, writing and singing because they have an immensely positive effect on me. It makes me whole again, ready to face a new day… For instance, I am fond of different types of music at different times of the day…often I sense how refreshed I feel after listening or singing to them.
At home every once in a while my daughter and I find singing mashups of old and new songs together on the Karaoke very rejuvenating…One thing leads to another, humming or singing some melodies while going through the day, makes the moments feel light. I also find listening to gentle, soft instrumental music while painting very enjoyable.
What are your experiences with music?
When was the last time you heard your favorite songs?
When did you do something creative while listening to music?
As you go through daily life Just care to remind yourself That you are being watched over And cared far. This simple habit will bring You immense peaceYou will transmit universal love. Peace be with you
Sharing my verses that was inspired by vivid thoughts on Oneness.
Colours of the spirit Pouring from the heart Sensing the feelings Evoking the emotions…
If every colour in the sky Rained down on earth If every colour of the rainbow Poured itself out from the cup of life Colouring the planet in vibrance The world may see these very colours In the deepest core of the earth. For as is above so is below…
Nature is abundant in its flow In the river of time Trust nature to paint in vividity Splashing on the canvas of the earth Painting patterns in the fluidity…
The sky and land The mind and body The spirit and the soul Aligning in the Oneness of the flow.
All matter is energy And we are unique speckles of vibrations. All resonating in the universality of life and living. Trust you matter, more than you know Believe you can and are making a difference As you connect deeply in the universal flow Tune in to reflect the truth of your being.
Every word every deed Every step every move Impacts the larger whole Just as much as the world around you. So start with who and what is around you Sense your intuitive self talking to you Telling much in all its subtlety. Trust it, for it is abound With the strength of the subtle energies. Resonate joy, abundance, balance Resonate love ,harmony and peace For you have the power to transform your world.
And I love this inspiration that I came across in my readings today…
Because forgiveness is like this:
A room can be dark because you have closed the windows, you’ve closed the curtains. But the sun is shining outside, and the air is fresh outside. In order to get that fresh air, you have to get up and open the window and draw the curtains apart. Desmond Tutu
An essential skill in any job that requires talking & handling people is speaking well and communicating effectively.
Handling challenging questions during a speech can be effectively managed by a few practical and strategic ways using conflict resolution techniques. Get yourself some time to think by practicing listening actively when a question comes up and then repeating it in your own words to check if you have clarity on what is asked. Acknowledge the questions with empathic voice and body language can ease and reduce tensions and help build the flow of communication. Get yourself back into the arena by reframing the questions to align with your context. Using an assertive voice shows command over the context.
Always remembering the goal is not to score a point but or win an argument but to build and sustain a positive and respectful connection.
