    First, let's understand what mindful eating is:  Mindful eating is the practice of being present or being aware of your food's taste, texture, aroma, hunger, fullness, satisfaction and all kinds of feelings and experiences while eating your food.   Most of the people are not mindful while eating their food. They are eating their food and thinking about something else.   You are not eating with mindfulness…

Do something related to your dream every day. If you can't do something, then at least make time to think about your dream. Remember, thinking is also doing.   When you plant a plant, you give it water every day. Why? so that it doesn't die – so that it can grow.   The same thing happens with your dream. If you have a dream but you don't nourish…

  No matter how stressful I am, no matter how many unwanted or painful thoughts disturb my inner peace. The moment I observe my breath, I feel peace; I feel relaxed. All those painful emotions and unwanted thoughts disappear the moment I observe my breath.I am grateful to Siddhartha Gautama Buddha for discovering this wonderful breath observation technique. And the great thing is he didn't just keep it within…

First, let's understand what attention span is. Attention span is the amount of concentrated time one can spend on a single task without being distracted. Your attention span can be measured by how long you can focus on a particular object.   Short videos and reels are decreasing human attention span. According to the research, the average human attention span is around 8 seconds today, down from 12 seconds…

    One day I wanted to travel from one place to another. The total distance was a twelve-hour bus journey.   I decided to go to the bus stop early so that I don't miss the bus due to traffic problems on the road. I had booked an e-rickshaw to go to the bus stop.   I saw that the e-rickshaw reached there 3 hours earlier. The e-rickshaw…

Beauty is just a myth.   There is no such thing as beautiful or ugly. You are just defining things as ugly or beautiful. If you see something as ugly, for someone it may be very beautiful. Same way, what you see as beautiful, for someone it may be very ugly.   Beauty and ugliness depend on your perception.   You can make an ugly thing (which is ugly…

Your choice and my choice are not the same. Your interest and my interest are not the same. Your taste and my taste are not the same. Your passion and my passion are not the same. Your family and my family are not the same. Your problems and my problems are not the same. Your abilities and my abilities are not the same. Your life purpose and my life…

As an agriculturist, when I see a plant's leaves changing their colour or getting some kind of spot on them, or falling down, then I just try to find out the root causes which turn it to fall down. This can be a lack of nutrients or maybe an excess of some nutrients; this can be a soil-borne disease, maybe a lack of water or maybe an excess of…

I love money.I don't know why many people think negatively about money. They say.. money can't buy happiness, money is not good, money makes people bad, you shouldn't love money, etc. But you would see that they are also working for money. I believe that money is a good thing. Money gives us the freedom to live the life we love to live. If a person is good, he does more…

  No matter how many different paths I choose. Every time I choose another path, no matter how far I go, something pulls me back to the path my inner soul loves to walk through.   I observed it. If I look back to my past life, I can connect the dot. Since my childhood it has been happening.   It happens not only with me. I believe it…

What you focus on expands and becomes your reality. When you make a habit of focusing on the good things, you start to attract more good things into your life. When you focus on the bad things or negative things most of the time, that's what you are going to attract in your life. Your reality will become exactly like that. Where focus goes, energy flows. By focusing on something, you are…

We read books to gain knowledge, but do you know if you consciously walk through your day, you will notice that you are gaining many lessons and many experiences every day that teach you what is right and what is wrong, what is good for you and what is bad for you, what is working in favour of you and what is not. And that knowledge you gain by…

If I sit and begin to count my blessings, my human life will be finished, but my counting will not. One day I will see that I am 90 years old, and I am still counting my blessings. I will see that my counting is not yet complete because of the many blessings I have received. I am blessed with an abundance of air to breathe. I am blessed with…

To develop any habit, it requires consistency. Whatever habit you already have in your life, it is because of consistency. To develop a new habit, you first start with a very simple and easy way. The action you are going to take must be so easy and so simple that your mind could not find any excuse for not doing it. For example, if you want to start yoga as your…

If you search for God outside of you, I doubt you'll ever find God. But if you search yourself, I am sure you will find God.   Searching for God outside yourself is like, a piece of an apple searching for the apple outside itself. You are made of God, just like an apple piece is made of apple.    For me, God is an energy that always stays with…

Simplicity is good.A simple life is a happy life!  Simple life, simple people, simple habits, simple work, simple food, simple things, and - a simple way of living. The people who live simple lives find the originality of life in simplicity. They do not run after money and fame. Rather, they focus on what truly matters to them, and that can lead to greater mental well-being. As they live in simplicity,…

You are not alone. A wonderful being has always been with you. This being is supporting, helping, and guiding you all the time. This wonderful being never leaves you alone, not even for a moment. You want to know who that being is? Yes, this is your inner being!  You may ignore your inner being, but your 'inner being' never ignores you. Your inner being always adores you, always loves you. It…

If you want to live a struggle-free life, then stop thinking about struggles. Stop discussing your struggles and stop discussing others' struggles as well. Remove the word "struggle" from your vocabulary. Instead of the word struggle, start using words like ease, abundance, plenty, and prosperity. Start thinking about prosperity. Talk about prosperity, discuss prosperity, love prosperity, feel prosperity, appreciate prosperity. See prosperity through your mind's eye. Shift your focus completely from the…

You can be replaced at work any time. And the business you have created can be copied. The things that you have now can be taken away from you. The one thing that cannot be taken away from you is yourself. No one can copy who you are. No one can copy the way you think; no one can copy your energy. You are a unique being. No one can…

Whatever happened, happened in the NOW. Whatever is happening is happening in the NOW. Whatever will happen will happen in the NOW. Physically you never live in the past or future; you are only living in the NOW. You can't leave the NOW, and the NOW can't leave you. "Don't let the sadness of your past and the fear of your future ruin the happiness of your present." Don't ruin your wonderful NOW…
