Holistic Experience of Life using Spiritual Tools

Life is a journey and not a destination, we have heard this saying many times. 

We all strive hard to make the most out of this life by engaging ourselves in different kinds of activities whether it is at a professional or personal level.  Most of us consciously or unconsciously do try to put in efforts in making our life better in whichever way we think is the best.

For many of us I believe we can relate to this that even after putting in so much efforts on an external front still we feel there is something lacking inside and a sense of incompleteness within. So here comes the need for using spiritual tools for a holistic experience of life .As the saying goes “Life is not a destination but a journey”. 

Spiritual tools if integrated with our daily life can be a great source of inner rejuvenation and also give us a sense of inner fulfillment. As a table has four legs to make it stable and steady similarly our human life when based on four pillars- Financial, Physical, Emotional and Spiritual, to give us complete 
fulfillment. We are not able to only achieve the external targets but also enjoy the process of getting there!

In my previous articles, I have shared few simple and easy spiritual tools which we can apply and integrate with our life. A small step could be a big leap. There is a mass of people who are awakening to this understanding are have taken simple steps to add spiritual aroma into their lives. Let me summarize those tools for our dear readers once again:

• Practicing Gratitude
• Breathing deeply
• Mindful walking
• Journaling
• Spending 10-15 minutes alone time

A holistic experience of life includes a combined fulfillment of inner and outer experience. External fulfillment does come from sense gratification and the path towards inner fulfillment is by using spiritual tools. A balance of our movement and efforts towards the Outer and the Inner shall probably pave the path for a deeper fulfillment and holistic gratification for us!

Best wishes for our dear readers to enjoy the gift of life to the highest possible potential.
Love and Namaskar to All!

Meditation commentary

Hello friends, Sharing a simple guided commentary for moving inwards into a meditative state. Let’s pause and take out some time for this quiet, inward journey. You can play a soft instrumental music in the background and slowly read these words, trying to feel them deeply. Begin by sitting in a comfortable posture, and allowing your eyes to close. Put your hands on the lap and let your shoulders drop. Keep your back straight. Now, begin by taking a few slow, long, deep breaths. Breathe in fully, and breathe out fully through your nose. Allow your breath to settle into its own rhythm. Pay close attention to your breathing cycle. Notice each breath, as it enters through your nostrils, travels down your lungs, and makes your belly expand. Notice your breath flowing outside through your nostrils, contracting your belly inwards. Observe and accept your experience in this moment without judgement. Now, we shall do a gradual relaxation of our body muscles. Bring your awareness to your body. ...

People pleasing – Solutions to amend this tendency

In this article, we shall understand and reflect on the possible ways to break the pattern of people pleasing. In our last post , we learned about the causes of this tendency. People pleasing is a form of self-abandonment, whereby we lose our identity in order to win the approval of others or to make them happy. We must comprehend the distinction between pleasing people and being kind. Kindness is a virtue that denotes strength, but people pleasing is a weakness that arises from fear, anxiety, and low-esteem. There is a significant difference between a nice guy and an authentic and kind individual. Thus, there is a dire need to delve deep into the root cause of this trait. Let’s examine some approaches to decondition ourselves from this pattern. “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” ~ Eleanor Roosevelt     • Developing high self-esteem: We need to develop a high level of self- esteem and self-confidence. We need to realize our self -worth and have a clear ...
