Own Your Depth

  Our choice of food should not be defined by any moral or social needs , it should be according to the needs of the body. Whenever we consume any kind of food, we should be able to pay attention to how the food behaves within us, by observing exactly how it makes us feel. The yogic system categorizes food into 3 different types, namely: Positive pranic, negative pranic, and zero pranic foods. let's take a look at each of them individually; positive pranic foods ‘Prana’ is the Sanskrit word for ‘Life energy.’ Therefore, positive pranic foods are the kind that impacts our life energies positively, in other words, they make energy reverberate in a dynamic way. There is a whole variety of positive pranic foods available to us, some of which include: honey, black pepper, fruits, nuts, dried fruits, sprouted green grams, whole grains, legumes, cereals(rice, millet, oats, etc), and winter melon. zero pranic foods These are the kinds of foods that have no impact on the energy body, they o...

 Every man is what he is, because of the dominating thoughts he has in his mind ~ Napoleon Hill If we pay attention to our thoughts, feelings, and experiences, it is possible to tell the nature of thoughts that dominate our minds.  Lost in a negative pool of thought? My mind used to be a mess. I had too many negative thoughts, and thinking about it now, I understand why my experience of life was not the best. I was too much in victim mode, I felt sorry for myself for not having financial success despite working so hard to achieve it. I was broke, bitter and I was sure that someone or something else was responsible for my misery. It is impossible to know what you want if your mind is filled with negative thought   In this state, I seemed to be chasing things I did not want. Check out my post on the  struggles of a multipotentialite , you'll see what I mean. In pursuit of money, success, and general comfort and convenience, I got lost chasing careers that were not for ...

'you have no moral right to take away someone's suffering'~ Ram Dass  The clarity that comes with spiritual progress is amazing. It feels really good to be at a distance from the memory that once brought suffering. Nowadays, I find it hard to believe how often I am present in this moment without being in my head too much. When we feel this amazing, it's natural for us to want the same for others. I remember my first weeks of doing  Isha kriya , I was so happy I told everyone around me about my experience. When I did  inner engineering  it was even worse. I had to tell my friends about it. Looking back, I have realized that it is quite hard to explain to someone about an inner experience. When we work on rooting ourselves in reality on a daily basis, we are able to function from the perspective of the inner spirit from which pure positivity and light emanate. Functioning from this perspective allows us to be more present, joyful, compassionate, loving, and at ease. Of...

 Do you ever wonder why peoples' ability to manifest the things they truly care for is insanely different? Everyone wants well-being, but looking at the world we live in, there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor as well as the happy and miserable people. There are also very many people who are rich but unhappy and poor people who are absolutely content with their lives just as they are. If we are indeed the creators of our reality, then it goes without saying that we have all created the world exactly how it is and the process began in our thought. Dealing with negative thought Before embarking on this journey of enhancing perception, my mind was a total mess. I trapped myself in a loop of thinking that was very toxic. In pursuit of money and success, I knew very well that at the end of the struggle the money would flow. Instead, I got lost in my negative thinking and eventually gave up on projects I started halfway through. I'd be really excited to start a project, im...

 Losing touch with friends is definitely something that happens to almost all adults. As we grow older,  our circle of friends becomes smaller and smaller for a variety of reasons, and today, I'll be talking  about how my spiritual journey contributed greatly to losing touch with my friends. Being peculiar and different from a group of friends When I first discovered yoga and started practicing, I could not shut up about it. I talked a lot about my  experience with my friends hoping that they would also practice and enjoy the benefits. Some of them  tried for themselves, but most could not see what I meant. With continued practice, It is very clear that  doing yoga consistently has tremendously elevated my vibration to a point that I can feel a huge  difference in the presence of my friends.  After dropping alcohol as a toxic habit, the friendship circle becomes even smaller I held on to my habit of drinking for a long time because going out and h...

'Your higher mind contains a blueprint of your full business potential, and it is constantly revealing the fastest path for its fulfillment to you, through the images, impulses, and feelings of desire you have' - Lenka Lutonska.  We live in a world of cycles. Ever since I started journaling about my emotions, I realized a certain pattern. I believe the emotions that happen to us come in cycles, and it is our job to make sure that our emotions are evolving, not just coming back as the same emotions.  A few months ago on a weekend, I woke up to an overwhelming feeling of sadness and despair. I was fed up with my life financially, I thought of myself as 'unlucky' because most of the ventures that I had taken up had not matured into something I was proud of. I was also stuck in a business I do not really enjoy, but had to do it anyway. I was really sad that the business that was actually sustaining me wasn't doing as well as I would want it to be. I cried hard, and I no...
