Open your hearts , Women !

I got to attend  a small get-together of few women at a friend’s house . In front of the sofa , she had kept a small white board on a table and it was written on the board – ‘Open your hearts’

I was the new to the group except one who was already my friend . Everyone started sharing their  lives . Happy , sad , troubles – everybody was saying whatever one wanted to . There were more of troubles as happiness is something we keep sharing everywhere – even to strangers on online social platforms . At last it was my turn and I also shared what my heart wanted to . (my friend had already told me that you can share without any fear , nobody reveals your words to anyone out of the group)

There was nothing special  about ‘Open your hearts’ –No tambola , no gossip , no snacks but still a lot was there .

Some times , there are some aspects of life which trouble us , scare us but we don’t want to talk of it . We pretend as if the trouble doesn’t exist , we try diverting our minds but it remains there . It does disturb us in subconscious mind .

‘Open your hearts’ can prove to be a very simple but powerful way to heal you .

Embrace the Discomfort

Embrace that there’s something causing you discomfort . Don’t try to suppress  your feelings .  Breathe in , breathe out and accept that you are uncomfortable.

Spend time with yourself

Spending  time with yourself is important . Listen to your feelings -what your heart wants , listen to your mind too and find a way how to go about it .

Spend time in prayers

Talk to your God , share all what you want to .

open your hearts

 

Spend time outside of yourself

Just be with others , try to understand their life and appreciate the beauty of others’ hearts . People’s lives may give you another viewpoint of looking at yourself

Find someone special to ‘Open your hearts’

Find someone special – your family or  friend to whom you can just open your hearts and he/she listens to you with all attention and care . The other person may not be able to solve your discomfort but just getting listened is much help.

Be a good listener too

Be a very good listener if  someone else wants to share his/her feelings with you .

Keep your eyes open . God may want to answer someone’s prayers through you.

Women are world known to have the  inherent talent of talking too much . Everyone says -Women talk much more than men . Some even say that women expel their emotions through talking and crying . But i think women hide their deep feelings many times from their men and parents  , in the fear of being labelled as ‘cry girl ‘ or ‘complaint girl’ . But psychological studies show that anger rises to a large extent in women if they suppress their feelings . And it’s a proven fact i think you all will agree .

So , time to ‘Open your hearts’ dear women !

Zoozoozoo : A journey

 Today is Sunday ,  May 1st 2022 and yesterday i was invited to my daughter's school to witness a small function.  My daughter Suhani was born in 2007 and the day clearly flashes in front of my eyes when she got on to the auditorium stage for her first annual function during her LKG class . I had dressed her up in a beautiful purple frock . The auditorium echoed  with the sounds of claps as the team LKG stepped on to the stage and took their positions as couples . Their teacher had blushed  everyone's cheeks pink and golden. The song started 'Zoozoozoo......we welcome you ......' and the kiddos started twisting their hips and legs holding on to their partners . Awww...it was such an adorable performance that a mother couldn't control her tears .  Watching some  kids who forgot their dance steps and wanted to just run here and there on the stage was fun too !  Yesterday was the day when she again marched  on to the auditorium,  this time ...

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...

Mindfulness ki Aisi ki Taisi

 Two years ago I had written two posts about mindfulness on my blog . One was about what mindfulness is and other exclusively  about food mindfulness. Food mindfulness suggests that one gets conscious of one's food plate - check if the ingredients are high in carbs or low in proteins , check if you are consuming more sugary foods , keep a check that your breakfast plate should me fullest and dinner plate the lightest . There's lot to be checked you know . But point is that if i keep checking all this stuff ,how do i enjoy food ?  What's the harm if my cheese is  served as paneer butter masala ? Won't chole bhature mind if i have only dry chapati with moong dal ? And why these sprouts and salads  feel egoistic in being on top of food mindfulness? Kya gunaah kar diya humne agar cream salad kha liya ? After all it's a salad only .   And you know my breakfast plate just does not obey the rule of it being heaviest.  Instead the dinner plate gets jam p...
