🪷 Grief 101:

16th April '25 marked 3 yrs for my amma.
This year was a bit different. It was still difficult yes, but it was surreal too cause this time, we made sure to re-live her happy times more than her absence.

The day started with our yearly ritual of अन्नदान (food donation) at our राजा बाक्शा temple (we do that both on her birthday and passing anniversary every year).
5 of us then went to the jungle for the day cause it was mumma's favorite place to be. I remembered how she'd compel us from our "busy" schedules each time on her birthday for a jungle safari, her excitement never fading I must add!

It was a very hot summer day and we were dreading the safari we had planned for the noon, but almost as if mumma wanted us to enjoy it too, just 30min before our safari, it started getting cloudy and windy and then, it rained!
I knew it in my heart that she was around ♥️

Fortunately there was no network connection and 5 of us together away from material distractions was the best time we could have spent together after so long! We shared our favorite stories of her, laughed at her quirks and ate her favorite foods. 🧿

Moral of the story : Sometimes, it really takes feeling happiness & gratitude to cherish the life lived rather than the sorrow for what was lost. 🌈

Ever feel like navigating your emotions is like trying to solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded?

That's where emotional maturity comes in – it's the superpower that helps you understand, manage, and express your feelings in healthy and constructive ways.

Why is building emotional maturity so essential? Think of it as the foundation for a fulfilling life. It impacts everything:

🌟 Emotionally mature individuals can communicate effectively, navigate conflicts with grace, leading to stronger relationships with deeper and more meaningful connections.

🌟 Understanding your emotional landscape helps you cope with stress, anxiety, and sadness in healthier ways, fostering resilience and inner peace.

🌟 When you're aware of your emotional biases, you can make more rational and better decisions, rather than being swayed by fleeting feelings.

🌟 Increased Self-Awareness: it encourages introspection, helping you understand your triggers, values, and how your emotions influence your behavior.

🌟By learning from your emotional experiences, you unlock opportunities for self-improvement and becoming a more well-rounded individual.

🌟 Emotionally mature leaders can inspire, motivate, and connect with their teams on a deeper level, fostering a positive and productive environment.

Let me know in the comments if you're interested in learning more and I'll speak more about how to build emotional skills and my favorite tips for the same!

I was humbled and honored to be invited as a chief guest for the graduation ceremony of the tiny ones at the Cherry blossoms kindergarten (South Public school).

What an amazingly executed program by hon. Dasture sir, Dr. Mrunalini mam and their team of fine educators!
I was in awe of the little ones and their talent.

Thought me speaking about something close to my heart (that's parenting) would be disinteresting, but every single parent and teacher was intently listening and taking notes!
So glad people are keen to learn more about mindful parenting.

What an experience it was! ♥️

Happy to know our future is in safe hands.

I was honored to be invited by the Blind Relief Association's Mundle English school for S*x-Education in Adolescents.
And since no S*x Education workshop is complete without teaching them about Self love, peer pressure, impulse control and positive mental health, that's what we covered in the 2 hours of the workshop.

It was such a fulfilling experience for me! All the kids, more than 200 of them were so inquisitive, attentive and asked brilliant questions! The headmistress and the teachers attended too, since they really wanted to create an open, non judgemental space for the kids to be themselves and approach them without hesitation.

I give my kudos to the headmistress and her team of these amazing teachers for their efforts in the overall development of their students.

More power to them 😊🌈

Found these online and oh man, the resemblance is uncanny!!

We try to find the significance of everything, search for meaning in everything, get offended by almost everything!

We forget to understand that we're simply the product of this beautiful construct and who are we to destroy where we came from?

Let's take a step back today and look at the bigger picture ♥️

My wish for you all this year.

Humans are where they are because of our evolution. Yet for some reason, after a certain age, we've stopped evolving Mentally, Emotionally, Intellectually & Spiritually.

Take this as your sign to keep evolving into better versions of yourself, every single day.

Yours truly,

Dr. K

Every action you take, every thought you entertain, every thing you consume - food & information - is helping you towards a different version of yourself.
It's upto you to reflect on your choices and steer in the direction of your desires.

You create your life.

Sincerely, Dr. K ♥️
