Mind, Body & Soul – 21 Day challenge

We live each day and learn each day. What we like, dislike or “ save ” in our memories stays with us as we grow. If we intend to grow with positivity and love we consciously inculcate certain learnings that become our habit or second nature. According to experts from psychology today, “habits form when new behaviors become automatic and are enacted with minimum conscious awareness. That’s because the behavioral patterns we repeat most often are literally etched into our neural pathways.”

One such beautiful habit was formed when I participated in the “21day challenge” at our Motherhood Club. The intention of this was to do something that has been resting in your mind or heart for long and due to the daily humdrum of affairs you are unable to incorporate in your routine. At Motherhood Club though the activity was open ended, some of us participated, completed and thoroughly enjoyed too. We read books, went for walks, met new people, learnt new things, exercised and the most important part which has changed a lot in me – we called up those long-lost friends and relatives which were left / ignored due to smartphone messaging and high paced lives. Communication came out as the most important source of happiness and helped in re-wiring my limited and conscious brain a lot.

One-to-one talk over a call or meeting in person still rules very high in helping your brain get fresh ideas, get your soul nourished (especially if the person has been in your close group of loved ones) and infuse in you a sense of hold! A balance! Of reciprocation and understanding of human emotions, acknowledging the presence and assimilating the essence of virtues and noble thoughts for future growth. These new habits of a daily walk or reading a book or calling up someone has made a difference to my thought process (mind), to my metabolism rate (body) and to my calm consciousness (soul).

“So long as there is life there will be struggle! Be prepared and fight it!” – Shri Amitabh Bachhan (twitter) Such challenges like this, (21 day challenge) help us prepare for the known and unknown struggles of life. We should live, smile and grow each day. Along with this, if we have gratitude to the creator and to our elders, we shall be able to live with a well-nourished mind, body and soul!

Happy growing!
