Self Acceptance

Its been amazing experience to see and understand how "Self-Acceptance" is key. It is so much more in 'reality' and boy how it helps heal and fosters growth! The enormity of this hit me, looking at the spectrum and magnitude of whom and how it helps.. from existential stress to serious drug de-addiction..

In embracing our shadows, underneath each layer 'every day', lies our key.

Play

An unusually open environment with play, creativity, colour, can bring out our child-like emotions, without any masks.. A very helpful tool when dealing with 30 plus adult clients who are not artists..

Insecurity: Insight from a case

"Without faith, insecurity breeds. With Insecurity, expecting a constant change loops. And with all this, there's no ability to love or receive love. With Faith on the other hand, there's no being better or worse, one can only just be, Oneself and leave all concerns at rest."

Saw this unfold in reality today.. will write up more about this soon...

An experiment

I'm trying to put in practice the notion of love and acceptance along with being firm around basic and already explained rules on a very sweet, helpful, intelligent kid, who's problems seem to be lack of faith and fear of authority figures, which comes out in his faulty evaluation of situations.. and him feeling hurt and defiant in his behaviour. I hope this approach works. He's a great kid! And this seems to be the only thing bringing him down. If you have suggestions, pls share.

On career indecision

Dreams cannot be realised under a mushroom of fear and pressure. No matter the rat-race, social scale 'competition' or pressure of future security.. the simple rule remains. It doesnt work as per our convenience or inconvenience. The rule being- a calm mind helps put things in perspective and a little openness is needed to take us towards the answers embedded deep within us.
