Why I Love My Solitude 🌿

Once I chased joy in crowded rooms,
in fleeting laughs, in borrowed blooms.
The world was loud, yet slowly I found
through yoga 🧘‍♀️, my inner voice grew sound.

I’ve grown tired of endless talk,
of shallow chats, of ringing clocks 📱.
The phone that calls, the words that roam
leave me heavy, away from home.

Now I move where soft winds play 🌬️,
where morning birds sing light to day 🐦.
Raindrops kiss my skin 🌧️,
and stillness hums a song within.

I flow like rivers in my vinyasa,
stand grounded like mountains in Tadasana.
The fog around the trees whispers ease,
teaching me to breathe, to bend, to be.

✨ In stillness, I return to self.
✨ I am whole. I am home.

The Caregiver’s Breath 🌿

A few months ago, someone very dear to me got into a terrible accident.
Life changed overnight, and somehow, the role of caregiver landed in my hands.

Out of love, I showed up fully —
but soon, the endless tasks, emotions, and exhaustion began to consume me.
Some days I felt like I was disappearing in the act of caring.

But somewhere between tending, waiting, and hoping,
I began to learn a deeper truth —
Caring for another doesn’t mean forgetting yourself.
You can hold someone in need and still hold space for your own breath.

✨

The Caregiver’s Breath

There is a quiet art in caring,
a rhythm that asks you to give and stay,
to pour from your heart’s full vessel
without letting it run dry along the way.

When someone leans upon your strength,
you become both bridge and shore—
but even bridges need their grounding,
even oceans rest before they roar.

So breathe between the tending,
pause and feel your pulse, your soul.
You cannot heal from emptiness,
you too deserve to feel whole.

Let the sunlight touch your face,
let silence be your friend again.
Drink water, stretch, and whisper grace,
you are not just their anchor—you are your own domain.

Love does not mean self-forgetting,
it means standing rooted, clear, and true.
You care for them with open hands—
but don’t forget to care for you.

🌸

This one’s for every heart that gives deeply,
for every soul learning that self-care is not selfish.
It’s how we stay strong enough to love gently, again and again.

Stepping Into My Purpose 🌿

For a while now, I’ve been teaching yoga —
guiding bodies through asanas,
minds through stillness,
and hearts toward healing.

Each session reminds me why I began —
to help others reconnect, release,
and remember who they truly are. ✨

Yet somewhere along the way, fear sat beside me.
The fear of being judged.
Of not being “successful enough.”
Of sharing my work beyond the comfort of the studio.

So I stayed quiet…
even while dreaming of hosting retreats
where people could breathe, heal, and grow together. 🌸

But maybe we’re never fully ready —
we just begin.
Because purpose speaks louder than fear
when we finally listen. 💫

So here I am,
choosing courage over comfort,
and stepping into the path I’ve always seen for myself.

If I start offering online classes and healing retreats —
would you join me on this journey?
To breathe, to move, to heal… together. 🌿

✨ If this resonates with you, drop a 🌸 or comment “I’m in.”
Let’s see how many hearts are ready to grow in light and presence. 💛

One of my other dearest friend texted me today. We have been continuously trying to transition from 3D to 5D reality and the struggle has been real. But, today after hearing her out, I shed a light on how she can break a cycle of generational trauma by reflecting upon the trauma patterns in her families on both parents’ sides.

I also want to let her know that I’m so so proud of her for stepping out of the norm and reflecting upon her own life, doing mirroring work and owning her own reality without blaming or shaming others.

Following is a poem for her and others who has been trying to elevate themselves from within by doing all the work that needs to be done at a spiritual level.

“You Break the Cycle”

This life’s a board of black and white,
Where old wounds play in day and night.
But you’ve learned moves they never knew
Now checkmate means the pain is through.

You grew up learning what they knew,
Old patterns wrapped in what felt true.
You carried pain that wasn’t yours,
Silent behind familiar doors.

They did their best, but didn’t see
The weight passed down unconsciously.
But you—you stopped and faced the storm,
Refused to call that hurt the norm.

You speak the things they pushed away,
Feel what they couldn’t in their day.
With every choice, with every tear,
You make the path ahead more clear.

It ends with you, and starts anew
Because you dared to see it through.
And those who walk the road you pave
Will know they’re loved, and they’ll feel safe.

So when it’s hard, and you feel small,
Remember—you’re healing it all.
One breath, one step, one truth you claim
You break the cycle. You change the game.

Here are some practical and compassionate suggestions for anyone wanting to break generational cycles and begin the healing journey:

🌱 1. Awareness is the First Move

Start by observing your thoughts, reactions, and patterns—especially in moments of conflict or stress. Ask yourself: Is this truly mine, or something I inherited?

🧬 2. Learn Your Family Story

Speak with elders if possible. Understand what your parents or grandparents went through. Empathy helps you make sense of what was passed down and why.

🧘🏽‍♀️ 3. Feel to Heal

Allow yourself to feel emotions you’ve suppressed—anger, grief, fear, even guilt. Journaling, therapy, meditation, and body-based practices like yoga can help you release what was never yours to carry.

✨ 4. Set New Boundaries

It’s okay to say no. You don’t have to follow old rules or keep harmful dynamics alive just to be accepted. Healthy boundaries protect your peace and model self-respect for others.

🧠 5. Reparent Yourself

Give yourself what you didn’t get growing up—validation, safety, and love. Speak kindly to yourself. Learn to nurture your inner child like a loving parent would.

💬 6. Use Your Voice

Generational trauma often thrives in silence. Start talking—whether in therapy, support groups, or with trusted friends. Telling your story helps dissolve shame.

📚 7. Educate Yourself

Learn about trauma, nervous system regulation, and ancestral healing. Knowledge is a powerful tool to shift unconscious behaviors into conscious healing.

🔄 8. Create New Patterns

Choose small, consistent changes. That could mean showing affection, practicing gratitude, or simply pausing before reacting. Little shifts lead to big transformations over time.

🌟 9. Be Patient With the Process

Healing isn’t linear. Some days you’ll fall back into old patterns—and that’s okay. Each time you choose differently, you’re rewriting the story.

🌳 10. Know That You Are the Turning Point

Your courage changes everything. You may never get an apology, but your healing ripples forward—through your children, your relationships, and your legacy.

One of my dearest friend reached out to me to ask me about my wellbeing, to see if I was Ok after reading all my poems. I was very touched that she checked in. In return, I asked how she was doing, she said, “Looking fwd to my journey in thoughts someday… still working to get there”. I suggested to her to learn to live in the now, she said that she’s still learning to make herself a priority and her little ones still need her.

The following poem is dedicated to her:

From one Mother to another -

Poem: “For the One Who Forgets Herself”

You rise each day to little calls,
To endless needs, to duty’s walls.
But in the noise and love you give,
You forget you’re also here to live.

You are not just what they see
You’re dreams, you’re breath, you’re meant to be.
So take a moment, pause the race,
And carve for you a sacred space.

A minute’s stillness, a walk outside,
A journaled thought you used to hide.
You matter too—your soul, your spark.
You’re not lost, just in the dark.

You don’t need to climb a peak—
Just sit, just stretch, just dare to speak:
“This moment is for me alone.
This minute, I reclaim my throne.”

The now is yours, however small
You don’t have to give it all.
Start with one deep breath, and see:
Even now, you still hold you gently.

Suggestions for Her:
1. Morning Ritual (5 minutes): Before the kids wake, sit with your coffee or tea in silence, set an intention, or just breathe deeply—no phone, no pressure.
2. Create a “You” Hour (once a week): Choose one hour for yourself—write, walk, dance, or simply rest. Make it non-negotiable.
3. Affirmations on the Mirror: Write reminders like “I matter too.” or “My joy is sacred.” to read each morning.
4. Micro-Journaling: Keep a journal nearby. Jot a sentence daily—how you feel, what you need, or what you’re grateful for.
5. Ask for Help: Lean on your support system. You don’t have to carry it all alone. Being vulnerable is brave.

Just heard Los Angeles is on a lock-down,
I’m about to have a melt down.
Are you sure you want me to come down?
April is still far away
Thinking of all this just blows my mind away.
Tomorrow is a Friday!
Usually I plan to have a get away.

All of this madness due to one virus,
Yet, people are not getting serious.
But, isn’t so obvious?
Universe is asking us to reflect within,
Take this time to do some real search in,
And Get connected with your feeling.
Getting to the roots of those emotions,
And starting the internal process of healing.

Please stay in your corridors,
Empathize with those nurses and doctors.
Who are fighting for you,
Whether your symptoms are major or minor.
This is a race we must collectively win,
But, your compliance has got to come from within.
The race where the winner is the one who doesn’t run;
But stays put, at home, indoors for this virus to be outrun.

Maybe all of this is a for a reason,
We just gotta wait until the spring season.
Then a new day will shine,
Everything will once again be all rainbow and sunshine.
People will again be out and about and on the go,
But dear! Right now let’s just cheers!
As I said even earlier,
Kal ho naa ho!
