Memorable incident which happened recently. Thought of sharing with u all-
A lady in her early thirties had come for consultation . She had series of health issues( personal) and she was totally depressed. Her personal life was a complete mess with lots of disturbing situations to deal everyday. She looked almost like a person ready to do something drastic anytime. I was very much concerned about her. To begin with we started with therapeutic Yoga where I emphasised on lots of breathing exercises for her body which was in pain and deep relaxation techniques with positive healing affirmations to calm her mind.
I could feel that there was something else missing in her treatment. That is when it struck me that she could do volunteering work for kids. it took lots of convincing from my side to make her feel comfy on volunteering her precious time. Finally with the support of my friends , we took her to an organisation Sahasra Deepika where there are 60 sweet girls and all are from an underprevileged background. She spent two hours there and this one meeting totally changed her. She gave love and got hundred folds of love from them. She felt loved and the feeling of being with kids who are craving for her attention, love and hugs just overwhelmed her. Suddenly it struck her that she is actually so blessed .....and her actual healing began.
That day she slept well without any Sleeping pill. Her perspective towards life changed. She later conveyed to me that she felt so peaceful and so happy after such a long time.A smile was plastered in her face to the surprise of her family members. She determined herself that she has to get well soon and teach these lovely girls often.
She decided to go there thrice a week and teach a subject for the younger ones. The will to live life once more as well as to change herself instead of expecting Others to change just awakened her . She started attending yoga classes with more enthusiasm , got the discipiline to do at home, manage situations as well as people. Her body started showing signs of improvement and that motivated her more. She is getting better day by day and by Almighty we can see her in abundant health very soon.
This is the magic of volunteering. If we have the opportunity to help people or make a positive change in another person's life , then take the plunge and do it . Take this as a blessing that you are able to give your valuable time to help others. Not many have that luxury.it is not actually the stretches or the rigorous training and strict diet which is going to keep us healthy in and out. Doing Karma Yoga itself is a healer.
One thing I have experienced as well as seen in healing people is when the mind is happy and peaceful and when we start accepting ourselves, accepting others, forgive ourselves, understand our needs as well as the other person's needs, when we feel blessed by introspecting our lives, then the body and mind automatically heals . By giving love , helping without expecting any kind of gratitude or expectations we are actually calming our mind and sending positive vibrations/signals to the body and voila body ailments heals.
So if that stubborn fat doesnt seem to be melting or that particular shoulder or neck stiffness doesnt seem to go away or that annoying constipation doesnt seem to ease, then think of volunteering your time and see the remarkable change in the body. You will see a positive healthy person very soon and that will be an amazing transformation. Isn't it?
In my experience being with kids itself is an energy booster as they are filled with positive vibrations and some of that transmits to u:)
So get going and help people in need...
Hope this post motivates you all .
