Multidisciplinary reflections at the intersection of philosophy, psychology, mental health, spirituality to help us become whole humans in this divisive world.
I always carry a pen and a diary with me everywhere I go. Who knows when will inspiration strike!
Mostly, it comes at strange places and times.
Sometimes in the shower, sometimes in the loo, but almost always while I am travelling, by train specifically.
What is it like for you?

Is happiness a distant goal or a present companion? ๐ค Do we chase it in the future or savor it now? Embrace mindfulness and find contentment in the present. What's your take on happiness? Share below! #Happiness#Mindfulness
Not every season of life is meant for โthrivingโ.
Sometimes the wind is against you, the bravest thing you can do is simplyโฆ survive the day.
Other times, you feel the urge to row against the tide.
This video is a small reflection on those two modes: just survive vs row against.
Ever notice how a sunrise or blue sky can outshine the glimmer of gold? ๐ ๐ While some chase power and wealth, others find joy in nature's simplicity. Happiness in moments, not material. What's your simple pleasure? #NatureLover#SimpleJoys#MindfulMoments ๐โจ
Ever noticed how a spider web glistens like a jewel in the morning sun? ๐ Each thread, a delicate masterpiece. ๐ธ๏ธ Now, picture the sturdy tree it hangs fromโsilent, strong, and life-giving. ๐ณ Nature's art, right? Share your own nature snaps! ๐ธ #NatureGems#WebsAndTrees
โOne of the most peaceful habits you can build is letting people do whatever they wantโฆ. and simply adjusting your distance.โ - @Onixx

โIf you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.โ

๐ณ The Tale of the Trauma Tree ๐ณ
Once upon a time, in a dense forest, stood a mighty oak tree. But this wasn't any ordinary tree. It was the Trauma Tree. Its roots were deep, tangled in past hurts and experiences. Its trunk, strong yet scarred, told stories of battles weathered. The branches? They reached out, yearning for sunlight, symbolizing our search for healing.
Ever felt like this tree? ๐ฑ
The roots represent our hidden traumas, often buried, yet influencing everything. The trunk is our present self, shaped by those past roots. Branches? Our future, choices, and healing journey.
Now, imagine what happens if we ignore the roots. The tree may stand, but it struggles. Just like us when we ignore our traumas.
Feeling a breeze of insight? ๐ญ
Reflect on your Trauma Tree. What roots are you nurturing? How can you help your branches reach the light?
Let's talk about it. ๐ฟ Share your thoughts or seek more. Healing begins with understanding. ๐

You have to dull your senses, numb your sensitivity in order to survive the loud and crowd. There is no other way.
Either, take drugs in the form of medicines or social media to numb down your sensitivity. Else, you are bound to break down.
Or you can do the following:
1. Channelize the restless energy in creative and productive ways like you have always
2. โ Work on strengthening your core.
3. โ Only mindfulness ainโt gonna cut it. Practice grounding.
I am always with you!
Iโve just opened a tiny online hideout called โWhole Thinkersโ โ for the curious, tired, sensitive humans who want more than productivity hacks and quick fixes.
If youโve been craving slower conversations, guided journaling, and a gentler way to grow, youโll feel at home here.
First gathering: โSlow Down & Listen Within โ Guided Journaling Circleโ on 22 March, 1 PM (IST).
Pay what you want ยท Limited seats

๐ฟ Ever watched nature in slow motion? It's like a calming symphony for the senses. ๐ถ
Imagine: a leaf gently floating down a stream, or a butterfly gracefully flapping its wings. In slow motion, every moment feels like a serene dance. It's nature's way of whispering, "Slow down, breathe, and be present." ๐ธ
Next time you need a break, why not watch a slow-motion clip of nature?
