Manifest Abundance

Belief is an act of invoking wisdom.
Trust in waiting is true acceptance.
Allowing is an act giving in faith
Receiving in humility balances the ego.


Trust and believe in the infinite abundance
Allow yourself to give and receive
Let your intentions be guided in goodwill and grace.
Abundance manifests!

Life the great teacher

If you feel like there is a setback

It is for you to understand

That growth is right behind

Rewarding you for your patience.

When you are challenged

You are learning from life…

After all life is the great teacher.

On Poets & Empathy

A slice of life
Poets may carve with words…
Emerging from life experiences
Lived or observed.
Poets may offer fresh perspectives Embedded in words in a flow…

In Poets,  empathy makes you sense and relate with compassion, It makes you feel one with another.
Yet the poet is strategic as to be a  poem the verses need to be well thought as much as well felt, as words manage to touch another soul.

What are your thoughts on the above?

How can empathy connect with poetry?

Have I?

A few questions to reflect on…

Have I made some one smile today?

Have I shared some good with all of my heart?

Have I written positive words and felt goodwill?

Have I stayed calm in my difficult moments?

Have I been a little more loving today?

Have I made me better than yesterday?

Peace

Today I was reading about Peace…

Such a beautiful feeling

You feel it not only through words

But in your heart, mind and body

In fact when all of you

Is peaceful, you radiate peace

Within and around you.

Feel peace Be in peace

Share peace.

Live in peace.

Transform the World

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.

On Forgiveness

On Forgiveness

An action that builds bridges

Creates connections

Erases errors

And heals hearts.

©Savvy Raj

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

What are your thoughts on this?

Peace Heart

Cultivating inner peace
Begins with the awareness
Of your own breath


Just for a moment
Take a pause and reflect
On the inhaled breath

You cannot hold it much longer
You have to let it go.


Likewise to this
Think of all the conflicts
Of the storms raging within you
Think of burdens weighing you down


How long do you choose to carry them?
You have to let it go, one day or another
Why not now,? And live free
Sensing the lightness of being.


You have One life one heart.
Choose to live life with heartfelt peace.

Your life your way

What is your lifestyle in this moment?

Are you listening to your body and what it is telling you?

Do you find time to invest in yourself?

Are you on your priority list?

Do you have a habit of putting others happiness and health ahead of yours?

Do you accommodate for everything and are perhaps less assertive and over tolerant?

The truth is you can never give from an empty vessel. Creating a beautiful life that you love is as important as for others. If there are gaps in your vessel of life,what will you share from?

Creating your own well-being in life is a responsiblity to yourself.

Ultimately it’s all about finding time to find yourself your way!

Sounds Good?

Words are powerful and the power comes not from the meaning alone, but from the tonality of how it sounds when read alone or  along with a group of other words. Said, read, or written or heard these words carry immense vibrations  which can alter thoughts and perceptions.

As a writer… I have often thought about if the words I write, sounds alright.

Have you sensed what sounds  your words carry?
Have you felt the impact it will have on the reader?
Have you got any feedback on the tone of your words?


Perhaps now, I need to ask my readers here…


What tone does my writing leave you with?

On Speaking

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.

Gift yourself

Soulwrites

How much of you, do you have in your creative expressions?

What can you do to write from a place of authenticity?

It is well known that creativity flourishes in a flow state. In bringing your unique expression holistically into your writing practice, you can transform yourself by enhancing your focus and connect with your work.

Speaking of writing there are few ways that can truly enhance your writing practice.

Breathwork & meditation

Starting with a few minutes of wholesome breathing and adding meditation brings clarity to your thoughts. And writers if you feel overwhelmed, using the breath to reflect and reset thinking refreshes thoughts.

Setting an intention helps you focus on a specific time, topic and theme.

Spending few minutes before you begin the day, witnessing what’s happening around you, gives you many inspirations, that you may jot down, sense & describe in detail in your writing.

Jotting your thoughts regularly is a valuable practice for any writer. And if it is a Gratitude Journal that records all the things you feel grateful for then you will be attracting abundance into your own life and positively shifting mindsets.

Personally I often just pick up the pen and write, or start to type words as they come, there is often no special or specific space that I must write from. Be it any place, whenever inspiration flows I begin to write.

Yet, I also wholeheartedly promote, creating a writing space, lighting candles, brewing a cup of tea or coffee,playing your favourite soft instrumental music. It’s a mood setting before writing which helps signal the brain for the relaxed writing vibe.

Conscious practice of writing un- distracted for say 20 to 25 minutes with a timer and then breaking for 5 minutes and resuming, creates focused approach to writing.

Every once in a while taking a moment to pause, reflect while reading your writing out loud, helps you to sense how it makes you feel.

When you gradually incorporate these ideas into your writing, you will find yourself enjoying your writing journey and sensing healing & wellness as you write.

WordPress a few days ago congratulates me on my writing journey of almost a decade here. Of which I have been writing and publishing consecutively with all of my heart every day in the last six years and more.

It certainly has been an enjoyable & fulfilling practice so far with some profound learnings and building connections along the way. So I, now wholeheartedly encourage you, to create your writing practice and begin your own journey of self growth & transformation..

I often write to motivate and inspire others to think positively as much as myself. Along the way I ended up mentoring others to express their creativity through their own words. Simply said it has been an enriching experience to share my experiences and motivate another to write as well.

While I know the pen will go on breathing words on paper,I pause to be thankful to all those who have been the silent and steady wind beneath my wings in my writing journey…. 🙏
