I am a confused Parent.  When I became a parent I had in my hands this bundle of joy and all I wanted is the best for my child. I wanted everything to be perfect for this beautiful human who to me, is the world.  When my infant cried it felt like I was at fault. Accidentally when he rolled off the bed I wept because I wasn't there to protect. Tears of guilt continued to roll down when I have had to leave him at day care to go to work.  I now have two children age 11 and 9. Boys getting into their preteens. Becoming independent. Needing me more for their emotional support and less for their daily needs.   How do I guide them as a parent and listen to them like a friend ? Will I be able to manage them during their glorious teens into their adulthood ?  I am a confused Parent. I don’t think I’ve got it right … but I am learning It's never too late for a fresh start.  <Write up for why children need Yoga and meditation>  <Isha Kriya write up...

Entrapped to Liberated

Entrapped to Liberated Just Stay in , it’s not trapped within  The infernal maze of my mind  Locked down, it’s not locked up In thoughts, tumultuously entwined Quarantine, a much needed downtime  For the body that’s relentlessly clocking in  Rest, or should we try a Reset Recover, or simply Discover Everywhere we look it’s the start of a race,  Hands on the steering, Feet on the accelerator Waiting for the flag that’s solid green to wave Gear on, Gas up and Push harder than ever before  We will move forward after we've looked inward Felling alive more everyday with the ones we Love Giving time with this one moment that's, Now It all adds up exponentially to make it a new tomorrow  

Hey Girl - Let's go for a ride

Hey Girl, Let’s go for a ride     When I text her, Hey want to go for a ride She never replies yes, she always thinks twice   What time she asks, I say lets meet at six Oh! That’s early, in her mind infinite plans twist   When do we get back, I say how about ten? Oh! That’s late, but when she’s on the saddle, it’s her Zen   To be able to meet the time, she’s got to be in bed by nine Wake up at five, set things up for whom she calls mine   She always gets it right and when they wake up, nothing is a miss Breakfast ready, Garbage out, Coffee in the filter, no one can dis   We meet on time, glad the next four hours is ours to unwind So stylish with all that gear, legs on that pedal ready to grind     She hopes only to ride and not think about what the day has in store It’s never easy -  work, parents, kids, pets, partner and all those chores   As she pedals for hours three, Her restlessness I begin to feel, It’s like Cinderella’s ...

I am a Believer

I am a believer   I believe in good people and their warm hug I believe in simple living and a comfortable snug   I believe in innocent smiles and the deepest tears I believe every story should be told with no fear   I believe in the brightest sunshine and the torrential rains I believe kindness is the only medicine for pain   I believe in the balmy day that follows every wintery night I believe in that peace that comes after every fight   I believe in the freedom to express as long as it hurts not I believe breaking loose from the shackles that have you caught   I believe in pointless chatter and togetherness in silence I believe in words not spoken but heard at miles ends   I believe in the star-studded sky and the cloudy moonless dawn I believe some will change and many others won’t   I believe it’s fine to trust and many a times when you shan’t I believe in giving it your best and also letting go if you can’t   I believe its simplicity th...
