Beat the Stress

 There are some days when I feel low , feel like just to keep lying in the bed , not doing any domestic chores or even go for my daily walk . If i try analyzing myself what is it I am going through , i don't reach any conclusion what exactly is causing me to feel like that . Once it happened that I was feeling so low and depressed and to divert my mind I started watching a movie . That bollywood movie had some emotional scenes to which i somehow connected and my eyes got filled with tears . Within few minutes I observed that i was relaxed now as if some stress was  wiped away with those tears. 

May be my mind was over burdened with stress and I hadn't tried any hacks to beat the stress . May be i had overbusied myself with routine job , family responsinbilities and the 3 meal decisions in the kitchen . 

Stress and Anxiety are  mainly caused when we start living too much for others ignoring ourselves . Focussing on ourselves  is what we need to learn and work on . I even  tend to eat more when i am stressed. 

To beat the stress here are some tips from my side :

1. Care about yourself - be it your time to relax , meeting your friends or taking care of  your food cravings .

2. A little sense of humour helps you detach from your struggles . Watch stand-up comedies , Grab a coffee and stop taking yourself too seriously .

3. There is only one person who can make your life as full as possible , and that's you . Don't expect from others. Trying to change others is foolish . 

4. Don't be over efficient in any work you are asked to perform.

5. Make a habit to devote atleast 5 minutes daily connecting to  the divine power.  

Here I wish to share an infographic which I made last year :

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...

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...
