This is NOT for people planning New Year's resolutions.

 This is NOT for people planning New Year's resolutions.

This is for you,
who wants to build the habit of being in meditation.

Not a dramatic promise.
Not a midnight declaration.
Just a quiet, repeatable return to yourself.

Let January 2026 be about clearing mental clutter,
not adding another goal to an already crowded mind.

Because resolutions made in the dead of night
often fade by morning like a dream you had and then forgot.

Micro-practices work differently.
They slip into ordinary moments.
They increase awareness.
They help you de-stress and rejuvenate on the go.

No pressure.
No performance.
Just presence, practiced gently.

·  Make awareness your first habit of 2026.

·  Practice presence in the middle of your day-to-day life.

Cake and Wine VS Poori and Dosa!

 The other day, I went to my regular restaurant for breakfast.

I ordered Poori.

This restaurant’s Dosas are delicious too.

On some days, I order dosas, either masala dosa or set dosa.

Nothing unusual, you may say.

But here’s my standing instruction whenever I order dosa:

“𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐢𝐥.”

Now that’s a paradox.

Eating poori, deep-fried in oil, and yet asking for less oil when it comes to dosa!

Our lives are full of such paradoxes, unique to each one of us.

The invitation is not to resolve them,

but to notice them…

and be okay with them,

as long as the body accepts them without adverse effects.

Opinions of dieticians, science, or religion don’t get the final say.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫.

Self-awareness helps us discover these paradoxes and live comfortably with them, no matter what people around us say.

Pause today and notice one small paradox in your own life.

No fixing. Just noticing.

How to catch this thief?

 How to Catch This Thief?

Some thieves don’t break in.
Yet something has been stolen overnight-

Your sound sleep,
Your ease,
Your clarity.

So who’s the thief?

Not your job.
Not your commute.
Not the world demanding more from you.

The thief is a confused mind.
A mind pulled in ten directions, unable to land in the present moment.

What most people don’t realize is this:

Confusion doesn’t come from too much thinking.
It comes from too little noticing.

The mind becomes a thief only when we are absent from ourselves.

And the way to catch it?
Not by forcing silence.
Not by chasing “perfect meditation.”
Not by sitting still for an hour.

But by making tiny inner adjustments .

Pause for 10 seconds.
Notice both your inhalations and exhalations, the way they are happening.

Feel the sensations in your body.
Acknowledge one emotion without trying to fix it.

In that single moment of presence, your mind stops stealing and starts softening.

This is how sleep returns.
This is how the smile comes back.
This is how clarity grows - not through big practices, but through micro-practices woven into daily life.

Your mind isn’t against you.
It’s just asking you to come home to the moment.

Catch the thief with presence.
Be kind to yourself in the simplest ways.

The Doctor Who Couldn't Breathe: Anjali's 4-Week Reset

Dr. Anjali, 35 was a medical professional on the brink. Her life felt like it was crumbling.

• The Problem: Chronic exhaustion, body felt heavy, and constant anxiety that led to panic. She was a habitual mouth-breather, her mind swirled with old trauma. Her resignation letter was ready.
• Her Belief: "Meditation never works for me."
• The Solution: She registered for micro-practices -using the body, senses, and thoughts to find stillness all the time.

 Week 1: The First Miracle

Anjali expected philosophy, but the session was purely experiential, focused on the body. One week in, a physical shift occurred:

"It was the first time in months that I breathed through my nose continuously for more than three minutes."

This simple physical correction was a gateway. Her body began to come back online.

 Week 2: Hitting the Wall

Self-doubt crept in: "This is silly. It's too simple. You'll fail." Anjali wanted to quit. But the consistency, handholding by guidance, became her anchor. She realized the practices weren't about feeling ecstatic, but about showing up - solidifying her inner peace.

Week 3: The Deep Clearing

Focusing on self-awareness, she simply practiced stillness. In that quiet space, the ghosts of old trauma and resentments surfaced, not to torment, but to be seen and cleared.

"It felt like someone opened a drain in my subconscious."

The constant fear and anxiety that had plagued her for years finally began to recede. She learned to observe her emotions rather than react to them.

 The Power of Presence

By the end of the journey, the change was profound. Dr. Anjali's exhaustion was gone, her breathing normalized, and her anxiety evaporated. The resignation letter was deleted.

She hadn't changed her external world - the hospital was still demanding - but she changed her relationship to it.

She accessed a life tool: the ability to find a powerful state of presence, anytime, anywhere.

The doctor who once struggled to breathe now uses the power of her stillness to heal both herself and her patients.

Why Tiny Adjustments Beat Big Transformations?

Years ago, I was asked to sit still for an hour.

It was torture.
Numb legs.
Backache.
Sleep fighting to take over.
And thoughts dragging me in every direction.

I thought stillness was about “doing nothing.”
Turns out, it’s about making tiny inner adjustments.

And the funny thing is , that’s exactly how a space shuttle survives in orbit.

From a distance, it looks calm… effortlessly gliding above Earth.
But in reality, it’s constantly pushed off course,  by solar radiation, magnetic shifts, and tiny invisible forces.

Yet it stays steady.

Not through big, dramatic moves.
But through small thruster bursts - tiny course corrections that bring it back into alignment.

My journey was the same.

Micro-practices became my tiny rockets:
A slow breath between tasks.
A pause before reacting.
A moment to sense my body or surroundings.

These small adjustments didn’t remove the chaos.
They helped me stay on my orbit within the chaos,
with more calm, more clarity, and more progress.

The secret isn’t mastering silence.
It’s learning to realign  - one micro-practice at a time.

You have probably been there - curious about mindfulness or meditation, but somewhere deep inside, a small voice whispers,

“Is this real?  Will it actually help me?”

You may feel a tension: wanting calm, but distrustful of spiritual promises or practices that seem too lofty.

Meet Sahana (name changed). She was precisely in that tension.

“I was torn. I believed in presence, in awareness, but I also doubted - was this just another fad? Could I actually sustain this?”

𝐌𝐲 𝐎𝐰𝐧 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐟

Long ago, I too believed in the power of meditation.

But I doubted it the very first time I was asked to sit silently for half an hour during initiation.

Nothing “spiritual” happened - only pain in my knees and back.

Then came the instruction to sit for an hour. Still, nothing - except a restless mind counting down the minutes.

It went on for more than two decades, as life unfolded with all its ups and downs.

I believed. I doubted. I stopped. I restarted. I questioned.

And somewhere along that long journey, I discovered something different -micro-practices - small, simple ways to touch awareness without fighting the body or mind.

Moments that made me comfortable with both my beliefs and doubts.

Now, both sit side by side peacefully - like old friends who finally stopped trying to win over each other.

In her sessions, Sahana learned to hold both belief and doubt the same way.

She didn’t try to force belief or suppress skepticism.

She simply practiced awareness - noticing sensations, breath, and thoughts.

Over time, she said, “I realized I can feel calm and doubtful at the same time - and that’s perfectly fine.”

Her practice deepened, not because she eliminated doubt, but because she stopped giving it power over her.
