REST & RELAXATION FOR PEACEFUL RETURN OF THE MIND!!!

This article is written by Aaditya Mahapatra @antimeridian14

Rest and relaxation are recommended for the peaceful return of our mind. Especially after this pandemic. Two types of stress punctuate personal experience. Eustress -the pleasant or curative stress – is inspirational and motivational. Distress destroys.

Our mind has taken a big detour since the spread of the pandemic. It has started exploring the parts of our brain that we didn’t even know we had or it existed. During this time of pandemic, the mind has given us ideas that we never thought we would think. And basically, has done a lot of work that we never would have done lest the pandemic had not happened.

Many have found their lost passion being alive. Many have come up with out of box ideas. Many has discovered their philanthropic side while many has understood why we need to have gratitude for what we already have,

So now our mind has to just prepare itself for one last thing on this detour. Things are still grim and safety norms are the order of the day. The mind is exhaust, no doubt about it. It’s working overtime to adhere into the new normal of the life. And it will be working for another couple months that way.

Mind has spin through so many things at a time last couple of months. Reservoirs are sucked dry, things in us are edgy now. But still mind is working stretching itself, as much as possible.

As nothing last forever, so things are going to be normal again with some new normal though.  The detour will run its course and get over. But after that should we come to normal life, directly??

No, we shouldn’t.  We should never directly head a normal life. Before that we need to give our mind rest & relaxation time as it comes back from the detour. It is time to slow down, repair, rejuvenate and reconnect with what matters. We are going to return to a world of optimisation, ambition, smugness and obligation again. We would push hard on multiple fronts again. But before that we need to give rest & relaxation time to mind for its peaceful return to its normal state. And then we shall return back to our normal life.

This is an article for the future not for the present But I wanted to write it now. So Here It is!!! Hope You all Liked it!!!

EVERYONE IS CREATED TO FLY!!!

EVERYONE IS CREATED TO FLY!!!

As it comes out of the cylindrical egg
and lands on the leaf…….
as destiny choose for it
it’s happy gnawing
loads of them
naïve and ignorant of the upcoming change
 
Suddenly things start changing
as it is caged inside a shielded cosset
it struggles hard to ooze out if it…
you know
with constant pain and aching spirit
 
and it finally gets the glimpse of the sun rays
as it peeps out of the cocoon with colorful wings
and the garden is full of welcoming flowers
with seducing gestures and fascinating grins
 
Life is actually going through a metamorphosis
as they say impermanence is the law of nature
and the pain works as an Alchemy …
I guess to transform us to a butterfly from a maggot
 
Everyone has been made to fly
and not remain crawling forever
let the pain work on us as Alchemy
to make us better
to make us fly like a butterfly

 

I always believed that no matters in what situation life puts us in, we are supposed to bloom. And also feel that the painful & ugly moments of our life are like caterpillars which are destined to become butterfly. We are supposed to be transformed to meet our higher self. The reason is very simple. As a caterpillar it’s resource to live is leaf. It gets transformed to a butterfly because it is supposed to reign on flowers.

Our surrounding changes with time so also, we need to change accordingly.  Transformation is inevitable as we grow into our most beautiful empowered self.

No matter what uncomfortable changes we go through, no matter what we need let go of the forms of our life that no longer fit the new self of us…it’s in evitable!!!

TRANSFORMATION IS BEAUTIFUL as Everyone is created to fly like a Butterfly!!!
