I have posted a video above by life coach Iyanla Vanzant (an author, inspirational speaker) on the tapping therapy. If you can watch this video on my blog then it is excellent but if you are unable to then I suggest that you find it on YouTube. It is a highly effective video where Iyanla explain in details about the tapping therapy. This is an amazing self-healing technique which can be used by anyone of any age and for any emotional-physical discomfort and illness. Actually, in the field of spiritual healing or alternative medicine it is believed that all Diseases are created in the body whenever there is Dis-Ease in us.  Initially we have a negative or painful emotion stuck in us for a prolonged period, which then changes into slight aches or pain and ultimately those slight pains transmute into real physical illness. Broadly speaking, we all have invisible 7 chakras (wheels) in our bodies corresponding to our endocrine system. Alongside thes...

Memories don't leave you especially the ones you have from your childhood- your friends, your school, the teachers. The time when life seemed magical and everything was possible. When you actually think that the sofa you are jumping on is an island and the carpet below is an ocean. Childhood is a time when my mom told me that if I finish my food quickly then Thumbelina (a fairy of my thumb size) will  come and play with me. And I believed with all my heart that when I would reach School my fairy friend Thumbelina will be there to play with me. Thumbelina is still very real for me. With all these memories I had a sudden impulse to go to my school and see how it is today. To share all those beautiful moments and give you a glimpse of my glorious past I have taken some pictures of it, which I have shared at the end of this post. I went there after a very long time, the building is pretty much the same but our school was closed down many years ago and today a new school wit...

The only constant thing about life is that it is constantly changing. Relationships, work, priorities everything changes, and if we pray and are truly grounded in faith then we should know that everything happens for a good reason. In every changing situation, we are either learning something or we are teaching something. Although that change can be extremely painful for us to bear, but we need to have faith and be sure that God always has bigger and better plans for us which we cannot even comprehend with our limited mental capacities. However, one thing that remains constant is true love- whether its between parents and children, or friends, life partners.  Love is the essence of humanity, love is peace, love is joy, love is forgiveness, love is acceptance, love is faith, love is prayer, love is health, love is prosperity-Love is God.   Anything which calls itself love but does not have any or all of the above elements is not love, rather it is a cou...

I am excited today. May be its natural to feel excitement after taking two cups of strong coffee or may be the events that unfolded today are thrilling me. Whatever it is I am thankful to see things clearly now and have a perspective.  But more importantly it is healthy to take a step back from your life, from the routine things & thoughts and simply watch yourself from a distance. Trust me, when you move yourself out of the ordinary, extraordinary becomes visible. Albert Einstein said that time and space are illusions, ‘ you there – me here ’, is only the limitation of our eyesight. Beneath all distances we are all one, so intertwined-knitted together that we do not even know where one ends and the other begins.   I have received an incredible email today, the content of which I want to share with all of you. However, I need to get the permission of sender of this email first before I could go on and share some bits of past and how amazingly this is tr...

Fear and insecurity are inevitable feelings that you feel when you begin to loose something that you have with you for years.   There are times, when life suddenly wakes you up to do what is needed. As much as it pains you or others around you, you still need to stand up for yourself. Few days ago I went for a haircut, the stylist who was doing my hair had a frozen shoulder. It was a technical cut and she is a perfectionist, so we were together for at least 2 hours when she was carefully checking the precision. Within few minutes I suddenly started to feel acute pain in my shoulder, which led to cervical and a severe headache. The pain in my shoulder was so bad that I had to ask my stylist if her frozen shoulder was hurting her- because after practising alternative medicine and especially reiki we can naturally feel the pain or discomfort of others in our own body. I felt her shoulder pain exactly at the same spot in my shoulder and it got worse with time. So after sh...
