Episode 60: Eat Right, With Delight
Diet Do you find yourself craving something to nibble on when you’re under stress? Does food give you immense joy and your required dose of dopamine? We all enjoy foods of different types and associate certain memories to them. What distorts the balance is when food becomes our resort of respite, when we start eating our emotions away.
Eventually, this toxic cycle of unhealthy eating makes us fall prey to fad diets, where our favourite food triggers a spiral of negative feelings and makes us miserable. Come join me in today’s episode as we talk about our favourite food, work on having a more positive outlook towards it and foster a healthy relationship between our emotions and food.
Episode 59 : Healthy Relationships Boost Health
Healthy Relationships
Even though healthy relationships sound so simple and easy, they need much more efforts and work.Trust is the key building block for any relationship. Openness and honesty flows freely only when there is absolute trust between two people. What goes next into the mix to make a relationship work is mutual respect and affection. Without these, there won’t be any regard for each other’s boundaries and comfort level.
Join me in today’s episode as we go back to the basics, have a look at our relationships, try to smooth out all the bumps on the way and slowly work towards a more harmonious life.
Episode 58: Escape Not, Face!
Why do we binge watch our favourite show the night before a big meeting? Why do we want to get away and go for a holiday when we have a gigantic task to accomplish? Or constantly look at our phones? Is it all to be blamed on procrastination? Escapism isn’t laziness or a trait of irresponsibility but rather a way to cope in the ever competing worldly reality. The hustle culture has become toxic with people being burnt out, looking to evade the need to join the madness.
Join in today’s episode, as we view escapism not with the old lenses of tardiness rather understand the growing need of it and also devise ways to handle it.

Episode 56: Predictions or Affirmations- Your Choice!
How exciting does it seem when someone takes a look at our palms and tells us when we would get that long coveted position. Or when we view our daily horoscope, hoping to read that good things are coming our way. We are believers, hoping and desiring to have the best of everything. What we forget in our need to get our futures predicted is the fact that we create our own reality. Tune in to today’s episode as we, instead of relying on other people’s words about our life, start visualising and affirming our own future.
Episode 55: Ageing - Moving forward and Upward
Ageing is the most natural thing in the Universe. From the moment of birth, we breathe, live, learn and grow constantly. People view ageing as a decaying process, but in reality, it is the polar opposite. Holding onto the treasure of experiences, we become preciously exquisite and indispensable. We need to let go of our perception of viewing aged people as diminished parts of our society, as the ones who are no longer of productive value, but rather regard them as the cardinals. Join me in today’s episode as we work on transforming our perceptions, overhauling our outlook and turning towards our elders to learn, teach and grow together.
Episode 54: Pets - Pets Deserve Human Respect
Nothing compares to the pure joy of seeing those wagging tails, loving eyes and warmth filling up our heart. Having a pet not only gives us companionship but also instills in us a sense of responsibility. No confidence building exercise can ever match the boost that our pets provide to our self-esteem. Our animal companions remind us of the ability to make a good difference in someone else's life, to be more empathetic, to be more and more human everyday. Tune in to today’s episode as we appreciate our pets, express our gratitude and solemnly pledge to shower them with all the love and respect humanly possible.
Episode 53: Commitment- Seriousness of Intent
Making a commitment entails formulating a plan of action, making a promise or a pledge to honour one’s vow and seeing it through firmly. What commitment truly needs is seriousness of intent, sincerity of choice, and persistence in carrying it till end. It is the sheer determination and dedication that transforms a dream into a vivid reality, ensuring the Universe bestows the best upon oneself. Come join me in today’s episode as we aspire to be truly and fully committed to our vows and not allowing any obstacles to come between us and our ultimate goal.
Episode 52: Surrender : Let go, let life flow
All through our lives, we are encouraged to hustle, to be go-getters, to achieve all that we can. We constantly strategise, analyse and plan our actions to fulfil all our supposed earthly purposes. What we miss in the midst of it all is, to surrender. Deemed as extremely negative, surrendering is equated to failure, passivity, but instead, it is a powerful process. A process where we continue to create and manifest best plausible things and we let go the energy of desperation, false control and our fixations. Come join me in today’s episode as we allow ourselves to surrender. Surrender to the higher power, our divine purpose and to our fate.
Episode 51: How Are You Feeling Today
On a warm summer day, the hot wind drains from our body the will to do anything while a rainy day just adds a spring to our steps. A gloomy day dampens our spirits while a cold winter morning compels us to curl up in a ball and never leave our cozy nook. Our vibrations are in sync with the weather and we deeply see and feel it all. It has an impact on us, and we reflect it in our words, actions, and thoughts.
Come join me in today’s episode as we look at our interdependence on weather, learn to raise our vibrations on days when the weather plays tricks on our mind and live our life more contended.
