  • Work in progress

    “So how much did you loose?” An innocent question from a curious workout buddy. & a seemingly straight forward answer is what she was hoping for. But I had to shatter her thoughts mid-way. I learnt early on to not chase losses but rather was more focused on gaining! I am here to gain : build strength, improve energy levels and increase stamina – this was me on day one of consulting the certified coach.

    And like they say, find a guru you can follow and look no further. So here I am; 10 months later, stronger in my stride, lighter in my body and calmer in my mind. & the gains are far more than what I set out for – a coach who cheers, friends who are now my safe space and confidence to be a better “me”. Now amidst all those gains, why care to measure a few pounds lost!

  • One guru trap

    By guru I don’t mean the dhoti clad, self proclaimed god-men. I mean what if you were living, thriving and growing by the principles of one and only one person – could be your parent, your spouse or a friend you are enamored with. Wouldn’t that blindside you, giving you no perspective that’s different than theirs.

    It would be terrific to subscribe to the views and behaviours of various experts. Follow a health coach for your fitness goals, look upto a successful professional on your field for career guidance and speak to a parent-role model for your parenting woes. Limiting ourselves to a uni-dimensional life and thoughts of one is certainly not a growth path. Seek your tribe in all your spheres and cherish the real connections you make along the way.
