What The Shadow Self Wants

I want your love

Tell me you love my ideas

Tell me I did my best

Tell me that nobody else matters to you but me

Tell me you'll help clear out my fears

Give me your hand to hold on to

Give me your shoulder to cry

Give me a warm, affectionate gaze

Give me the belief that I'm the best

I know there are better people out there

With more drive, passion and love

I just want to know that I am

One person who makes your world explode with joy

Show me your acceptance of my nature

All the good, the bad and the in between

I have been taught to judge and hate my imperfection
I need your compassion for my peace

Take me to a place far away

Where the stars meet the sea

Hold my face in your gaze

As though within me, you see beauty

I don't need you to put me on a pedestal

I don't need you to put me down

I only want your acceptance, understanding and love
That tells me, no matter what, I'll be safe and sound.

Give me some sunshine

Give me some rain

Give me another chance

I wanna grow up once again...!

~ Give me some sunshine, 3 Idiots

Mantra Meditation - A Miraculous Journey

Wow its been a month (almost) from the last time I posted...! I humbly apologize for my inconsistency in posting articles. Jumping into today's article, I'm here to share my experience with Mantra Meditation, which is so much more simpler than it sounds. for representational purposes only The basics, to my knowledge, is that one chooses a mantra/affirmation/prayer/verse that they believe strongly in (or are trying to believe in) and meditate on that by simply focusing all their energy in the process of chanting. The beauty is, this method is so simple and easy, requiring very little effort and can even be done purely by listening to the chanting (though actually chanting it gives a much better feel). Now this chanting can be done by oneself or in a sangha (a community) and I highly recommend community chanting because: 1) It gives you motivation to repeat the process and make it an integral part of your routine 2) It gives you a sense of accountability because you feel obl...

Life After

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening/Whenever you're reading this! It's me, Maitreyi. Yeah I know, a long gap since my last post, but worth the wait! I have so many exciting things to share with you all and I can't even wait to begin. But first, the apology. I, Maitreyi K, solemnly swear that I was up to all good during my rather large break, and I hope you can let me off the hook in case you were (and hopefully are) a consistent reader. I apologize for being away and I'd like to make up for it by sharing juicy details about my life. So, first things first, I have cleared the hardest core papers of my engineering exams! And I'm talking about concepts that were specifically created to juice the jam out of my poor brain. So that's an amazing win! Next, I prepared with blood, sweat and tears to give a crack at one of the toughest entrance exams in my country to access fine quality higher education in the field of Management. I cleared it as well. Then I attended interv...

On Feelings - A Monologue

Every feeling you feel is real. It has value. It is valid. It's completely normal for you to feel the feeling you are feeling. Its okay✅ to feel angry and feel like breaking something (or someone) 😠 Its not okay❌ to execute this action ❗😨🤕 Understand your feeling and ask yourself Why am I feeling like this?🤨🤔 If you get an answer😯💡 Try to find a proper solution😎 from a calm mind😇 How do you get a calm mind? It depends on if you believe in the power of deep breaths and grounding yourself, but distracting your brain🗯️ from the trigger helps. Distraction can be as simple as counting your fingers and toes 👐, stroking the inside of your palm (it tickles) or swirling saliva in your mouth (sounds gross, but helps). Basically doing an easy access activity that requires minimal effort but requires you to be focused on it. Now that you feel grounded, Listen to your feelings🗣️👂🏻 Understand your feelings🧏🏻‍♀️ If this feeling is about someone e...
