Develop Every Day Courage

Take courage to speak, listen, take action

“Courage is the power of mind to overcome fear” – Martin King Luther

Most of us are in our daily grind, it could be to deal with our work situations, our relationships, our surroundings. And while we juggle with different things at the same time we get drained and loose the confidence of finding our space of being courageous and visualize ourselves where we want ourselves to be.

It becomes important to build the mind body connection to maximize your energies and build courage. Pay attention to your physical and emotional sensations to be more aware of both your pleasant and unpleasant feelings, so that you can take actions that will best work for you. Remain to the openness that we don’t know all the answers and taking time to grow through our everyday learning that brings courage,

Evaluate your emotions, notice your wandering mind to focus, your thoughts that are non judgmental, kind and brings awareness of being courageous and overcoming blocks of hindrances. If you are more aware of what is going on physically, emotionally and in your surrounding you can be more courageous and thoughtful to take the steps that are more attuned to your requirements.

Your brain is how you want to train it to be, so don’t being that negativity that shuts you down. Develop the authentic yourself to express with the right intention and courage. Be courageous to be who you are and vision your life bigger than where you are. You find more courage as you abandon your fears of not overcoming them. Fear is nothing but your own thoughts that put you down. So put your heart fully to take actions that will reap pleasure.

Visualize yourself repeatedly of being brave and successfully carrying out a task with confidence. Your subconscious mind will start think courageously and take instructions as you visualize. Have positive images in your mind of yourself acting with competence and courage.

Be courageous !!!!

Bond with your soul and innerself through nature

 

HELLO 🙂 I am back here after a gap that has been unavoidable.*Before I continue, I want to thank all my readers who have mentioned to me that they read what I post and have been missing my writings lately. YES ! I am trying my best to get back and and stay connected with you through SHARING MY EXPERIENCES and THOUGHTS.

In one of my earlier posts I had mentioned nature is whimsical and magical bringing joy that may seem small but is in fact its BIG ! Yesterday I got the opportunity to encounter nature while on a picnic to Bakers  Park, Calgary and  small bunch of us friends ventured to hike and explore the woods and the surroundings.

When you step in the domain of nature every site is a joy, that brings lot of peace.

The connection is deep with your inner well being and you relax with a clarity of mind and soul that is relaxed and calm.

You smile at…. The trees, flowers, leaves, flowers, fallen twigs, any fruit or dragonfly , butterfly that you see and these smile back at you.

The surroundings are pure and the silence in the woods opens your mind and soul.

Once you truly discover nature’s beauty, it is a place where you would want to spend more time, solely connected with your inner self deep within that is so peaceful and positive. 

I definitely feel REJUVENATED 🙂 and RADIATING 🙂

Will be back again and don’t forget to leave a comment 😀

Love !

Raman

How Are You Investing Your Energy?

IMG_8206   IMG_3757
(At Food Bank)               (Close to nature)
In 2000 my mom had introduced me to a Reikhi Master, from whom she would go for a treatment. Later we both learned the art of Rekhi practice from that expert Master seeing its importance. During the lessons, it was interesting to get educated how energies work in human beings.

The aura of human beings is directly proportional to the health of an individual. I have been quiet convinced by this fact, witnising health of individuals changing when these energies are balanced. I dug into my notes and recalled our our body is surrounded by five layers/levels.

To experience harmony, balance & well being in every aspect of physical life it is important that all the layers of vibrating energy contribute to our existence function together as an integrated whole. All these levels have vibrations and form the vibes that you emit to the surroundings.

Unfortunately we invest our energies at the wrong places by not making good choices and not realizing we are draining ourselves. We drain our energies when we develop the negative feelings and emotions toward our surroundings in our thoughts and actions. Every single thought negative or positive makes you a person as a whole.

So it is important we invest our energies into kindness, gratitude, love, appreciation, meditating. It may seem complex but can be attained by simple day to day positive actions. Once we develop the attitude of using these energies in the right direction we get a great sense of inner well being. 

So hang on to investigate your energies that will be meaningful for your well being 🙂

Love

What a simple smile can do !

IMG_6713

A simple smile is a symbol of warmth and kindness.  It is a non verbal communication and can lighten up many hearts. It can lighten up your mood and others heart. Smiling reflects your inner wellness and happiness. It is sad when people try to give the rigid looks by not smiling. When I see people lack of smile I feel, they highly lack the appreciation for others and want also to represent themselves as non friendly. 

It is often said “SMILE IS CONTAGIOUS, YOU GIVE TO THE WORLD AND WORD WILL GIVE IT BACK TO YOU”

Smiling brings out the positive emotions. Many years back I remember someone mentioning you smile without any reason which I felt was not a compliment and this did not stop me to smile. I am glad the other day my colleague Lesley mentioned that her husband mentioned me by saying – She is always smiling and Lesley with a gracious smile asked me to take it as a compliment :-).  

When we smile our smiling muscles contract that send a response to our brain and hormone serotonin are released which in turn brings us joy. Communication becomes easier when you can smile in a genuine way. But off course we have to be mindful of situations when we are smiling.

A smile can brighten up your day or someone else’s day so don’t forget to smile.

Here are few lines about smile that I wrote few months ago:

I want to wake up with a smile

Smile that will make me do better than yesterday,

Smile that will remind me of the little blessings,

Smile that will remind me of hope,

Smile that gives me strength,

Smile that spreads the message of love,

Smile that knocks down negative emotions,

Smile that speaks volumes of fresh beginnings.

So keep smiling !! JUST DO IT !! And don’t forget to like here 🙂

Five Ways to Unlock Your Potentials

IMG_0947

You can understand your journey of life better and make it more beautiful if you unlock your potentials. Know your inner self by discovering the diverse things you could be able to perform. Many times people get staggered and approach life in a different way that makes them distant from their inner potentials. Your own false assumptions can hold you back in knowing what you really hold inside. Practice the following that can help you to unlock your potentials :

1. Believe in yourself:

Always believe in yourself in what you want to do. Only you can give permission to your own heart to take a step and go ahead to do. This could be anything example – working on a project, speaking out to an audience, creating an art piece, performing an act etc. Remember when you believe in yourself you gain self confidence and self esteem.

2. Don’t fear the rejection:

You could be holding back to perform with a fear of getting rejected by the people around or the public. Leave the fear behind. Only you know what works best for you. You could find success from the very first try or get success after couple of tries. Your main goal should be to perform. Eventually you will turn it to a point where you get recognized by your conscious of peace and the surroundings .

3. Don’t value your potentials with materialism:

I have seen people missing out to unlock their potentials when they weigh it with money. They think it is a waste of time as they they won’t be earning much out of it. They fail to understand the importance of potentials on a larger scale of life, gaining rich experiences and knowing the true meaning of joy.

4. Get Inspired:

Be open minded and get inspired from things that excite you. Be positive to adapt to situations or activities that make you happy. Get interested in things and you will get to see the opportunities will fall in front of you.

5. Go beyond your comfort level and be a learner:

When you are a continuous leaner you find yourself gaining valuable experiences and unlocking your potentials. Once you realize to go beyond your comfort level you will take more challenges and help to know about more different that you can do or love to do.

          GET THE MAGIC OUT and HOPE THIS HELPS !!!

Protecting Your Positive Energies

img_1999

When you have positive energies it helps you to remain, composed, calm, you can hear your inner self clearly and relieves the anxiety that you may have build. Over the years I have learned how important it is to protect our positive energies – by our right thoughts, emotions and the way we interact with world around us. Just like when we are driving a vehicle, the fuel gets consumed, similarly our daily good energies are being drained. We have to continue to build the positive energies around us. By simple practices you can conserve your energies:

  1. Get rid of negative habits : Compulsive complaining, jealousy, developing fear and hopelessness, gossiping about others or habits like spending too much time in front of TV. 

  2. Slow your mind by giving a pause. Our brain is most of the time working because of thoughts that are running and we are continuously doing mental work. Be cautious of using your brain in a meaningful way. 

  3. Build a routine of exercising or leading an active lifestyle by going for a walk or jog. Benefits of exercise are tremendous, you will feel good about yourself and build the confidence that is required.

  4. Calm your mind by closing your eyes and meditating, it may be for few minutes. Breath in and out thinking of your self in complete silence with no one around you.

  5. You have to set boundaries of staying away from negative conversations that drain away your positive energies. Remember you have to be polite to others, so instead of saying to someone you cannot hear their negative conversation, you have to shift your mind and heart.

         I hope you find these tips inspiring. Remind yourself  from time to       time how you are spending your time? What kind of conversations you have with people you interact? How uncomfortable you feel when you are surrounded by mixed people with different levels of energies?

Thank you for visiting!

Coping With Stress

572

(Myself enjoying the touch of waves, the touch of sea shells and feel of the ocean breeze)

People fail to understand joy is right beside them and could be in little packets. You have to open these packets that have the hidden treasures for your mind to be more relaxed and calm. How many times you have had a conversation with your family, colleagues, friends about the stressed life you lead in this era of technology like a machine who continuously has to manage everything including work, family, time, finances all at the same time without meaningful practices. Here I would like to share some of the tips that I practice to lead a life that is more joyful :

1.Take control of your mind:

When you know how to control and not let the surroundings affect you, you  can control your mind. When you know how to mange you will be more relaxed. You are conscious of what you desire and not allow the negativity or stress affect you. Listen to your mind and not to the surroundings that bring stress, fear and anger.

2. Be not someone who makes comparisons in life:

Unfortunately people spend large amount of their time making comparisons of their life with others and worrying. People who make comparisons of their life with others end up feeling miserable. For example people end up buying bigger homes on seeing others and end up financially broke and physically broke working different jobs. Be conscious of how you look at life and not focus on how big or small materialistic things you have or do.

3. Appreciate the beauty of the little things around you:   

When you start appreciating the little things around you, you bring in the contentment in life. You don’t feel stressed of not owning the things you cannot.Even a little opening of a bud makes you feel happy, you don’t wait for the big magical things to happen to make you happy.

4. Express yourself: 

Don’t have a fear of your existence, instead take out time to express yourself in any form.It could be through laughter; expressing your thoughts verbally or writing; painting or music. Express your own joy and don’t run after it. Joy is right there beside you or inside you. You don’t have to run after it. Your well being will come from within.

5. Lead an active life:

Break the monotone in your daily routines of going to work and sleeping. Pick up any activity that makes you feel relaxed and feel at peace. It could be going to the gym, cooking, singing, painting, dancing, gardening or writing. These are the times when you don’t allow the outer distractions to disturb your mind and you are all into it .

6. Get your mind to relax:

Relax your mind that will help you to calm.. Simple practices of doing yoga, meditation or evening closing your eyes for few minutes and breathing in and out will make a difference. Even if you are physically tired relaxing your mind will relieve you of stress.

7. Appreciate reality:

Appreciate the realities of life and don’t run after the things that are far distant and seem out of the world. Accept the situations you are in and find out the solutions to work on them. Acknowledge to experience the way it is. 

                          “Bliss of life is experienced from within by your own practices and thoughts”

Love 

Raman 🙂
