Real People, Real Calm Stories - 3

“I used to feel a strange tightness in my jaw… no doctor could explain why.”

That’s how Rajanish, a busy entrepreneur, described his struggle.

He consulted specialists, took treatments, yet the discomfort persisted.

Until one day, he decided to do something different -

he turned his attention inward.

I guided him to simply bring awareness to the sensation.

No fixing. No judging. Just noticing.

And something remarkable happened -

“When I became aware of the tightness… it began to dissolve.”

Over time, even the jaw stiffness disappeared.

Not by medicine, but through mindful attention.

He adds,

“Earlier, my mind would build unnecessary stories.

Now, I still notice thoughts, but the intensity is less.

I can diffuse them and come back to my body.”

That’s what self-awareness through micro-practices looks like -

not a miracle, but a shift in relationship with your body, your thoughts, your energy.

If Rajanish's story makes you nod, try this simple check-in right now:

1.    Stop. Seriously, just pause your scroll for a sec.

2.    Feel. Just notice your body. Are your shoulders hiking up near your ears? Is your jaw clenched? How does your chest feel?

3.    Breathe. Take one or two slow, soft breaths through your nose.

That's it. That little moment is your personal doorway to calm. You don't need more time, just more presence.
