‘The silence between our actions or movements becomes the bridge to our conscious experiences. The greater our awareness, the greater the creative potency of the action itself.

Putting things in Perspective
Any time I catch myself complain about life…there is a beautiful line by Abraham Lincoln to put things back in perspective ..
“We can complain that the rose bushes have thorns. Or we can rejoice that thorn bushes have roses.”
Life is in the way you see it!

Soul knows
Souls know the truth of their being
Embedded in the journey of life
Soul connection has the power
To heal and life regenerates
A body and spirit is given
So the soul can move…
Movements that flow
Towards its purpose of being.

It’s all in the breath
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 Hanh
Healing through breathing…
Here is one of the many techniques that can be practiced in awareness.
Box breathing
A Breathing technique to destress an agitated and tense mind to calm state and improve the mood.
A good practice for all and especially for those with depression, anxiety disorder and PTSD managing pains and insomnia.
The technique is simple and very effective.
1. Sit upright & Start with exhaling air out of your mouth slowly counting 1to 4.
2. Hold for four counts
3. Inhale deeply filling air section by section till it reaches the lungs & abdomen for four counts through your nose.
4.Again hold for four counts
5. Exhale for four counts from the abdomen and lungs slowly.
As a beginner choose a quiet place to begin this mindful practice. You can start by repeating for four times in one setting. Initially it is advisable to gradually take it up. In case you feel a little dizzy go back to your regular breathing and build it again.
The slow breathing and holding is the most important aspect which activates the para sympathetic system and thus helps reduce stress.
You can practice box breathing couple of sets in a day as needed to calm down.
Breathe away the stress
And breathe in ease.

On Self Worth
Do you sense love for yourself
Do you feel respect for yourself
Do you feel your sense of self esteem
Do you feel a sense of self worth
What is your self worth tied to?
Is it your education
Your fancy degrees
Your knowledge
Your partner?
Or your beauty?
Your abilities?
Is it to your achievements?
Your skills?
Your bank balance?
Or is it to your designation
Your children
Your home?
Your cars?
Your phone?
If you have answered yes honestly to any of the above please think again
Work on your independence
Free your mind free your heart
Free yourself from chains
Practice unshackling
Try to detach your self worth
From material things.
Others cannot always be around
We are born as unique beings
We are complete in every way
No one can latch on to us
Nor should we latch on to another
Self awareness is crucial
For true self confidence
Self Confidence creates self esteem
Self esteem develops self worth
Value the life you have
Understand your truth
Explore your potential
You are worthy.

To my circle of connections
Dear Readers & writers
We are an ever growing circle
Emerging through our words
In the sharing we have grown
We have eased into each other’s hearts
We may not see one another ever
But we have connected in mutual respect
Of each others creativity.
Though the power of words
Comforted and understood
Accepted and appreciated
One another in our own little ways.
For we all know the power of words
That, one heartfelt word can change a day!
Thank you all for being here and hoping for a joyful journey ahead together for us all.

Bloom in Resilience
Moving beyond….bloom again
Did something happen?
Did you get hurt?
Are you in pain?
Do you keep hurting
Time and time again
Still thinking of it
Is it the circumstances
That repeat itself?
Or is it you who has to change?
Are you ready?
To work on your own self?
Cultivate your inner strength
Release let go pain
Let go slights & insults
Step by step
Bit by bit
Acknowledge the hurt
But overcome it
In practice learn to flow over it
And once you do
You move over it
Care to ask yourself
What is the hurt all about?
Where is it hurting the most?
Whatever your answer
Release it consciously
Let it go…
For the now is meant to change
Such is the truth of nature.
Its your life
You are responsible
To create a garden of your life
Make sure you strengthen
The walls with gratitude for life
Value the life in every now
Bloom some more
Be the best you can be!

What is travel to you?
To travel
Can be about discovery
Of the old in the new places
Leading you to pathways
That takes you back to your self
To travel
Can be a sensing of serendipity.
A feeling of dejavue
A memorable journey
Unexpectedly unto yourself.
To travel
Can be to witness
The stark reality of life
Perhaps a jolt of reality
Of places and people
As they are in comparison to what was once imagination.
To travel
Can be to learn and unlearn
To connect us to this now
With the truths of things
In places we visit
Know and unknown.
Keep traveling far and near to find yourself a little more every time.

Space of Calm
Create a space of calm
Inviting you to a journey
Alluding you in subtlety
Through natural authenticity
Keeping it simple & minimal
With intriguing unintentionality
Allowing a space for austerity
Sparking divine connectivity
Evoking movements in the stillness.
Invoking stillness in the movements.
