  • 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!

  • In all her glory

    There is no dearth of strong ladies around me.

    The ones now living life on own terms but having come out of bad relationship in the past.

    The ones stuck in sanguine relationship yet financially dependent on someone else.

    The single ready to mingle kinds who battle societal pressure everyday.

    The ones in a fulfilling relationship but striving to build an identity outside it.

    The ones having lived their lives fulfillingly and now asking almighty for an end.

    The ones who put their best foot forward everyday for their kids, despite being looked down upon.

    Tons of females out there who fit this description. But a handful have given me a sneak peek into their lives. Displaying resilience and fortitude, working towards their goal laboriously. Every interaction leaves me inspired and awed; often motivating me to take a balanced view of my own life.

  • Legacy of strength

    Strength to stay true to your words.

    Strength to stick around your main characters.

    Strength to stand by, through thick and thin.

    Strength to get up from a fall.

    Strength to abide by your decisions.

    Strength to keep the vows you took, silently.

    Strength to love without attachment and give without expectations.

    Strength to face the past, dream the future and live the present.

    May the strength be with you đź––

  • The new normal

    They say time and tide wait for none, and so shouldn’t I,

    But then it’s been ages, been a while,

    That I felt elated, felt life on a note this high,

    Feeling the emotional tank overflow, sigh!

    Content, comfortable and smiling in my world,

    In the new relations and rituals I was curled.

    Blissfully unaware of what I had lost on the way,

    Or maybe aware but keeping it all tucked away.

    Don’t go that path; cautioned my mind,

    Keeping turning away, an eye blind.

    This new you has all the strength,

    Go embrace it and tread the length.

    Said my heart and good Lord I did hear it,

    Not going to be easy so take it a bit by bit.

    Easy it wasn’t, flowers and thorns alike,

    I like the journey, as much as I now dislike.

    Clear judgement of what’s right and wrong,

    We are in the rightful places where we belong.

    So lighten up, smile and keep it sort of formal,

    After all this is going to be the new normal!
