On Analysis Paralysis

Some of the common Symptoms: Overthinking ,lack of focus,  Stress ,Frustration, Racing thoughts .Indecisiveness in high pressure situations, Cognitive confusion. Tiredness Sleeplessness etc.

If you are feeling caught

In a swirl of thoughts & emotions

As if you are being engulfed

Where you feel stuck in a loop

Unable to take a decision

Or move forward with  a solution.

It could be Analysis Paralysis.

While anyone of us may have experienced  it, people with inflexible and fixed mindset often find themselves in this dilemma.

On the other hand people who are  sensitive and empathy also find themselves  unable to take a decision to move forward if it is going to upset another .

In fact Analysis Paralysis  can create blockages for intuitive people and hence they need to  understand it to address it.

If you are experiencing it now here are few solutions to manage  it.

  1. Acknowledge with Self Awareness  by scanning your entire body to sense what, when and where,and how often you are feeling this way.  
  2. Address it by allowing yourself to be more flexible and open to new perspectives without fear. 
  3. Stop trying to please one and all. Trust in your capabilities and know you are enough.
  4. Conquering  your fear of failure by taking  a small step towards that which seems impossible. Keep the faith in yourself and you can always  pivot without unwanted pressure.

Thriving rich?

Being rich is living life exploring and discovering all your possibilities of your potential

Being rich is being able to realize the potential of you.

Being rich is being ready to sense the abundance that is.

Money is not necessarily the only factor for your worth.

Your worth is being all that you are.

You are rich in knowing your worth.

Be enriched in health wealth & prosperity but most of all be rich in the heart and mind.

In realization of the contentment of what you have, you are truly rich!

Spark of the divine

Power of Imagination  takes you places. It’s your choice  where you want to be or go. It’s in you what you choose to imagine .

Divine Sparks

Simply imagine the infinite power of possibilities of the soul. And the pinnacle and the depths of infinite potential .The greatest depths is of the soul within… a spark of the divine!

Journey within :
As one deepens the focus in the inward journey of awareness, greater empathy is felt for the world outside , and when the focus is towards the outer materialistic world the focus turns towards being more self centered than self aware.

What do you think?

Mind body integrity

“I am living in hope. Although it seems almost invisible. It’s a hair line of hope that keeps me going.”

These are words coming from a dear friend who I consider my soul sister. She has been braving the odds in her life in silence and grace. But how long will she be able to stay silent It is question I always ask myself… Knowing her, nothing much will escape her lips.

But the body never lies I believe the body intelligence is listening in to the emotions she is feeling and is reacting to it in its own ways. Most times it manages well under the influence of the mind power and will and at times it caves in under the strain of the hearts feelings. The cells of the body are changing every moment shaping itself to the moments…

Ease and disease are the results of the changing body. How long I wonder is she having till her body manifests her emotions in its own way.

Can she manage to integrate her body mind and spirit and channel in positive ways?

Stress Management is a skill and it takes practice. Quite often it takes help and intervention too. For when it comes to managing it, there can be multiple ways to go about it.

What is important, is to do something about it, by educating the self and being self aware to practice  consistently  and master stress, or else the stress will master you.

Allow yourself to trust in the divine plan. Acknowledge your mind body connect. Listen to what it says.

Trust your intuitive intelligence and move beyond stressors for you are enough for you.

Sense of Divinity

All is a matter of sensing…

Painting : Savvy Raj

Divinity is alive and well

In every moment of now

It is full of signs

Powerful in subtlety

And gentle in its power

Divinity dances

Between and betwixt you & me

Every life is a testament.

It is goodwill energy

Meant for you to sense

And know there is always more

Than what you see in yourself

Your divinity is for you to sense

To express from your being

Such that you help impact

Not only the self positively

But also those that you meet…

Reaching beyond self limitations

To leave a legacy of transformation

That can make the world

A better place to live.

On Commitment

An interesting  quote on relationships  I read this morning…

The relationship between commitment and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest when it’s not without doubt but in spite of doubt.

Rollo May

As I reflected on the above words  a few thoughts came to me…

On life and relationships

Is there an interplay of doubt and commitment?

Is there commitment when in doubt?

What happens when doubt creeps in the committed?

Whenever they intersect there are conflicts

Whether at opposition or not

Both are in thoughts

Dashing from one extreme to another

At times contradicting at times rationalising

And returning back to apparent normalcy

When doubt dances in, commitment feels the burn

When commitment is strong, doubt rests on the back burner.

Have always felt there needs to be trust in a relationship as much as compromise else even the strongest of relationships fall apart.

What are your thoughts ? Do share.

Oneness

True intelligence of humanity is in realizing the strength of the intetconnections.

It is the guide to all that we truly are made of .

Oneness of  spirit

Oneness in body

Oneness of mind

Aligns us in harmony

To live in tune

With the laws of nature.

A calmer perspective

I have received this poem below through a  social media forward.

And I think I needed to read it today.

It put many things in perspective.

You see, there have been some small and inexpensive things missing at home . We have two house helpers And I was not sure who is the culprit. 

They have been with us for a while and I have senior parents who live at home  so I was letting it go and keep calm,  because it was easier as it was causing a lot of unnecessary confusion and doubt.

In the meantime two months ago I replaced one of them.  And I had felt a sense of relief somehow. And today the other is about to go  on  leave for the customary annual holiday.  It will mean a lot of work for me  personally until I find a helper. Yet I have been feeling positive that better is happening and all is for a good reason.  Sometimes we grin and bear for the fear of changing statesquo…

While I cannot get my lost things as I have no proof, I think I needed a calm perspective to  help me find me a way…

While I do believe that we must take action on that which is within our control , these words touched a chord in me..

This being human is a guest house.

Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,

some momentary awareness comes

as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!

Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,

who violently sweep your house

empty of its furniture,

still, treat each guest honorably.

He may be clearing you out

for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice.

Meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.

Be grateful for whatever comes.

Because each has been sent

as a guide from beyond.

— Rumi

Channeling Emotions

Inhale when you are happy

Let happiness fill your soul

Exhale when you are angry

Keep breathing your anger out

Hope this works as a great reminder whenever wherever

You feel you need it

Love this quote… and it is always worth remembering

Anger is like a storm rising up from the bottom of your consciousness. When you feel it coming, turn your focus to your breath. Thich Nhat Thich

Surf the waves

To swim and surface
Is daring the waves.
Like any ocean surfer knows
We are all equal before a wave.
While you may not be able to control everything
And learning curve may be steep
You adapt to ride the waves.
For waves are a part of the flow
In the cycle of life.
A wise leader knows
the highs and lows
Are part of the same flow.

Handling Difficult People

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.
