Come, fall in love with yourself

Come, fall in love with yourself...

Have you ever felt the zephyrs with your eyes closed?
Have you ever tried to love yourself?
… Serendipity it was when I came across an insightful talk with a spiritual guru, Teal Swan while browsing the internet, which imbibed in me qualities like self-love. 

Most of the people, in general, don't take out time for them and ignore their existence. This is due to lack of self-love! One should have a mindset and prepare for any commitment. For this, the concept of upstream (that is resisting the flow of life) and downstream (that is going with the flow of life) should be anchored in our minds. Let’s make this concept easier to imbibe by looking at the following example: there is a girl who is interning in a great company and is offered an amazing post in a company at par, that offers her accommodation also but the girl declines the offer for personal reasons (comfort zone and existing friendships), so she resisted the flow of life!  

Has declining what life may offer her, not a downstream path? She probably could have explored newer possibilities… But she resisted the goodness life held in store! 

Life gives each one, an opportunity and a dire situation and puts one in dilemma. To resolve this confusion, we must pose a question to ourselves 365 days – when faced with decision making what would one do if one loves oneself? For example, a child doesn't like green leafy vegetables and they are good for his health and are made to choose between healthy green leafy vegetables and junk food … what should he do? In this situation, he should ask himself that ‘If I love myself, what would I do - eat green vegetables or junk food?’ He will get an immediate answer and would know what to do! 

In a flash of a second, everything seemed disparate. For no reason, I was empowered to do something-something which would help me fathom love for self and my twin soul. In the depth of my heart, I had immense gratitude for luminary Teal Swan who preached self-love and showed the path towards it by summoning it forth.

“Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply.” ~ Stephen Covey

The Art of listening  Have you ever experienced the beauty of listening? How about trying after reading this ? Nature is mildly silent yet fiercely breezy conveying disparate feelings. In this cacophonic world where it’s hard to keep pace with words, we excel in the ‘lack of listening’, not realizing the secret marvels of nature that we are losing!  Isn’t it is hard to pay attention to the quiet, the subtle, the understated ? One spends roughly 60% of the communication time  on  listening - of which only 25% is retained! ‘Listening can be defined as making meaning from the sound which is a mental process and a process of extraction…’ as quoted by Julian Treasure in his talk  on ‘5 ways of better Listening’ , a speaker at TEDx platform.  But why are we losing  our  ability to listen? What are the reasons behind it? Certain technological changes are responsible for this in some ways: the invention of writing, audio recording, and video recording! In this nois

“Succcccccess” “ We’ll try again we’ll fail again because that is what progress looks like. Progress looks like a bunch of failures.

Silence is wisdom's best reply !!

The Beauty of Silence Pause, unleash, unwind, and surrender… How about a world where we float in an ocean of colours... Now imagine a myriad colours injected in you; from the resplendent to the ashen, from the see through to the clouded, from the pastels to the starks. The one we reflect isn't the one we are known by? Beg to differ? A magical phenomenon, non-palpable in today’s traumatising world affected my psyche in various ways, when I surrendered myself to the power of silence, in the midst of colours. Cyan ; a hue of calmness Fiery Orange ; a ray of hope  Emerald ; signifying spiritual aura  Lemon Yellow ; duping the gates of inspiration  and Fuchsia ; a perfect jargon for love… Silence is an antidote to listening. This realisation dawned upon me when I saw ' The Ink in Motion' in the midst of silence. This fascinating array of colours touched my soul and healed me from inside. It preached me how to demarcate calmness from dis
