2023- A year of strong contrasts

2023 - A thank you note!

Reclaiming Identity: Rediscovering ourselves on the Journey of Motherhood

The process of unmothering

As moms we are given one…

Covid-19: Beautiful lessons it taught us

Covid-19 cacophony of emotions

This photo was taken in our kitchen last August by my hubby.   Looking at it a year later has brought back a flood of memories. And a gentle reminder of the beautiful lessons this trying time taught us . August, 2020 when we were deep in the midst of Covid-19.  My heart, like everyone else’s,  had never in its 58 years of existence felt such a cacophony of emotions…

Do you Live or simply exist?

Do you live or do you exist?

Live and not simply exist? How do we do that? When we act not react. When we make conscious choices. When we choose to spend time with those who fill our hearts. When we do things that ignite our soul. When we align our life with our values. When we embrace, speak and live by our truth. That is when we truly live. It’s not all black and white neither…

How do you honour your mother’s legacy?

My gorgeous mother

A mother’s love is like our own breath. Harmoniously, continually, and quietly doing its part. While we do acknowledge it’s presence it’s only when we begin to live consciously that its true essence fills our soul. What is your mother’s legacy? How do you honour it? This gorgeous woman in the photo has been my rock and anchor through out my life. I have the privilege of calling her my Biji…

A punjabi traditional dress

As we celebrate Vaisakhi, Ramadan and Navaratri all during the same time let us pray for love, fairness and acceptance for all.

Our dreams, desires, feelings and aspiration are all the same. No one is above and no one is…

Conscious living: how its an unending affair

Thought on being conscious

Conscious or mindful living, is not a one time behaviour or pattern nor is it a linear growth process. It demands for awareness in every moment. Awareness of how we feel, how we act and how we react. It can help us dig deeper and get to the root of what pains us, what triggers us and what ignites us. The challenge is that we can be fully aware and…
