I have nothing amazing going on in my life. Just the mundane stuff that makes up a day, a night. Posting pretty and not-always-pretty pictures of my stay in India is fun and I like the likes on Facebook. But we know this by now that what is pretty to me is not so prettyContinue reading “Nothing extraordinary!”
Neem
I was thinking of how Covid might make everyone a carrier of the disease very soon. I am not sure of this but it is a train of thought. It took me back to the time when I made multiple visits to the US from India with both my kids in tow. We had plansContinue reading “Neem”
Azadirachta Indica or Neem
The world of nature closely connects with the world of humans, it does and it should. Nature as an essential element of the world around us is being taken over by the artificial infrastructure but when it does connect, one is able to emote to the beauty of it.

Then imagine days later walking into that persons’ office. It is dimly lit with a small but comfy looking couch, unique Chinese prints on theContinue reading “The Healing Power of Talking and Listening”
Third Culture
Every time I visit India, I am reminded of the feelings, smells, and sounds which make up my perception of my parents’ childhood home: waking up to the sound of the street vendors shouting to sell vegetables and rushing out of bed to have piping hot chai with my grandparents; hearing the loud and bustlingContinue reading “Third Culture”
Awakenings at the Red Barn
The day was surreal. I was once again driving with my good friend and spiritual guide on another unknown adventure to continue to explore our energy healing selves. I go blindly with my friend without asking questions because I trust her and am curious about where this journey will take me. But this journey seemedContinue reading “Awakenings at the Red Barn”
Releasing Negative Energy
My first experience with energy work came about 5 years ago. At the time, a good friend had begun her journey to spiritual awareness and she explained that her Energy Healer would clear my blockages and I would feel happier, lighter, less negative and overwhelmed. In listening to her I became intrigued by all theContinue reading “Releasing Negative Energy”
