Explore and Exhale - A way to release Negativity

Explore and Exhale

Sometimes you need to take out time just for yourself . Yes , only yourself . I am not asking you to work on your hobbies , read a good book or say a kind word to yourself . They are all fine and one should keep doing those things but today is different .

Take out , say half an hour , just to sit and explore  . Look for a peaceful corner of your home . Sit straight in a comfortable position . Close your eyes . Listen to some soothing music for the first 2-3 minutes and then all silence . Be aware of your body , your wandering mind and  your breath . Inhale and exhale deep . Feel your breath -in and out . Do you feel good while you breathe deep? If not , change your breathing pattern and let it be normal . Now do you feel better ? If not , find out for yourself which kind of breath is comfortable to you ? Continue a comfortable breathing . I know our  minds have a wandering nature . Drag  your mind back to focus on your breath every time it wanders .

Explore your feelings

Live your emotions

With every comfortable breath , try to explore yourself and your feelings . What is good about you and your life ? Which are the things  you want to push away from your life ?  What are those particular life aspects which  make you happy ,  sad , angry , or frustrated ? Just explore all the feelings . All emotions – happy, sad,  anxiety , anger , frustration , together define you as a whole . Don’t snub your negative emotions . Many a times we don’t want to accept the negativity in our life . If you feel good you can smile . Smile with your lips , eyes , or tears . If you feel sad and feel like crying , cry . Don’t consider it as a weakness .

One of the major reasons for stress is that we snub our emotions . Explore yourself and embrace your emotions . Live all those emotions your mind produces .

If your body wants to dance  , dance like a mad without worrying about others . You  want to sing  , sing aloud without worrying about tune . Heart  feels like laughing , laugh khul ke . If sadness weighs more  , cry khul ke . Explore , and Live your emotions .  Let this exploration itself become your happiness .

Above Exploration , with every breath you exhale , let the negativity be exhaled out of you.

Explore…. 

Exhale….

See what goes….

and what stays ….

Zoning out and other tips to free your mind

Red zone , orange zone , green zone , we all are familiar with these terms now-a-days . The district where I live has been declared as a red zone . Red zone is the zone where there are quite a large number of cases of Corona virus infection and it stands a chance to spread rapidly . Orange zone is where there are few cases and it can be controlled with few efforts . Green zone is the one where there’s no virus infection as yet and we want it to remain a green zone . The same concept applies to our thoughts . Sometimes the life becomes a real struggle – there are conflicts with family , pressures at workplace , parenting burdens , health troubles , and there accompany them the stressful  emotions -frustration , anger , sadness , hatred , self-neglect , and many more . When such emotions pile up in your mind , you need to become very careful of your thoughts as your mind has entered a red zone . You have to work on your thoughts so as to avoid potential of community outbreak o...

I started my blog five years ago and my blogging journey during these five years has gone through many twists and turns . I started my blog on self hosted wordpress site , learnt lot many technical aspects like DA ,  SEO and latram patram .....Blogchatter has been a constant friend ( plus a big support) since then ....I have  successfully participated in  #BlogchatterA2Z three times .....and wrote two ebooks too during the process .

A letter to my Kitchen

 Being a woman i also spend lot of time in my kitchen whether full heartedly , half heartedly or not at all heartedly . But in any case i have to go in my kitchen off and on . Today I feel like writing a letter to my kitchen. Dear Kitchen    Hope you are living a fulfilling life with all your jars filled to the brim with wheat , rice , pulses , sugar , tea ,coffee and cookies . I also hope that your sinks are now empty and clean unlike the last month when maid was on leave . Those days ,your sinks used to be piled up with utensils and it stinked so badly .  Dear kitchen , it's been around seventeen years that i am taking care of you . Now you are grown up as a teenager and so you should learn to be responsible and maintain your hygiene .  It feels good when my family agrees on khichdi and your cooker does the job   in  just one whistle . But you just don't cooperate when they demand Chole Bhature and you also start giving me tantrums . Remember ho...
