Have you wondered who are your “mirrors” in life? By this, I meant the people who reflect to us the unresolved issues within us. It is akin to us looking at all parts of ourselves (good & bad) in the mirror. These people could be our family members, friends, bosses, colleagues, partners, and even strangers […]

Recently, I started reflecting on how certain universal laws of truth have unfolded in my life. In particular, the law of grace, which essentially means “ask and you will receive”. At first glance, it seems almost too good to be true. It is easy for skepticism to set in & dismiss everything as nonsensical. Are

For the past few weeks, I have been taking things very slowly. This is a huge contrast to my usual desire to accomplish as many tasks as possible, within a short span of time. Last month’s energies called me to slow down, rest & nourish my soul. I felt drawn to sit in silence multiple

For the longest time, I never liked my dad. As a child, I often wondered why he even bothered to give birth to me. It felt as if he was struggling all his life, and our presence merely added on to his countless suffering. As far as I could recall, his own dad never seemed

For the longest time, I never honored my feelings. To me, “feelings” were a form of weakness that I should conceal, rather than to announce to the entire world.
