Self-Love: The Journey Inward

Self-Love: The Journey Inward

Women in India, especially young girls have always been taught to be selfless, sacrificing and surrendering to the needs of the family and responsibilities. But when teaching these value systems to usually ONLY girls, does anyone realise that this giving attitude will one day rob them of and strip them of all that they stand for? For unless you know the way to love yourself first, how can you love the rest?

Having worked in a corporate set up for close to two decades, when I left my extremely demanding job, I found myself suddenly staring at a vacuum. No more getting up and getting ready, no more constant calls, no more scheduled interviews, nothing. No office banter, no socialising and no designation. Suddenly from being a somebody, you become a nobody. And then begins a whole series of various ifs and doubts in life.

People gradually distance themselves from you. You were only worth your chair, you see. Months of job-hunting lead nowhere. And then I began to question my self-worth after so many years of experience and high qualifications. Stopped getting up from the bed — after all I had nowhere to rush; stopped getting dressed — for what; stopped looking at myself in the mirror. And that was it.

The mirror actually is not just a reflection of our outer beauty. It also gives us the confidence to look at our identity as we look into our own eyes. So the mirror stopped saying anything. I was wallowing in self-pity and had lost confidence.

That’s when Shakti came in — with his voice that belied his age. When you speak to him, its like talking to an old, spiritual master. He knows more than you say. He doesn’t scare you. He doesn’t say he will do magic. He simply leads you towards a journey where you yourself begin to take hold of your life and that begins to instill the confidence you had lost.

The course and sessions on self-love with Shakti were what I looked forward to. He would not preach or give a moral lesson. He had devised interesting exercises that piqued my interest and gradually I began to see myself in a new light.

It’s a life changing experience because it lasts and stays with you.
When he works on your mind at all levels, you imbibe the best version of you and keep it for life.

Thank you Shakti for being my power.
