Most of my stress comes from things not going according to my plans. If stress was the only thing that happened as a result of this, bad as it is in itself, it wouldn’t be the worst thing. But that’s just not me. The stress leads to irritation and my entire mood goes for a … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 6 – FLOW
This is a picture of a chocolate éclair and donut from Mad Over Donuts, bot of which went into my tummy after a super relaxing facial session last weekend. And sadly, this is the only picture I have of the guilty pleasures I indulged in over the last seven days or so. Sorry, Elina @dietfunda_official. … More Week 5 RECAP – Embrace, Enjoy, Eat | #WordoftheWeek2020
In my previous post I Documented the Death of my Diet. Now obviously, it wasn’t titled THAT, and I didn’t mention anywhere (at least not in detail) that my diet went for a toss, but it did and allow me to explain how. This may sound very privileged, but having maids who don’t show up … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 5 – EMBRACE, ENJOY, EAT.
In the spirit of documenting, here’s a day by day recap of the Week 4 of 2020. 🙂 Week 4, Day 1 Wednesday, January 22, 2020. I was much more relaxed than usual this day right from the time I woke up because Sandeep was home. He had worked on Saturday, so a comp-off was … More Week 4 Recap – DOCUMENT | #WordoftheWeek2020
The whole reason I created an online profile and became ‘Being Mamma Bear’ was… well, to be able to share pregnancy updates with strangers, anonymously, because we had told only family and close friends, and didn’t want to make this life-update ‘public’ before the baby was born. But then after Laddoo’s birth, once everything was … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 4 – DOCUMENT
This week I could not do what I set out to do. My word for this week was to ‘Create’ and I had set out some specific goals for myself and I just couldn’t do it. And even though I didn’t create what I had in mind, it doesn’t mean I didn’t create AT ALL. … More Week 3 Recap – CREATE | #WordoftheWeek2020
This was a no-brainer for me. I’m almost certain that I knew this was going to be my word even before I knew I was going to do a word a week. I’ve suspected that a major reason behind the way I was feeling was because I wasn’t exercising my creativity as much as I … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 3 – CREATE
This whole thing is surreal. I cannot believe this is happening, and THAT is extremely ironic because the whole of this past week all I was supposed to do was BELIEVE. So let me tell you this, and BELIEVE me, I’m not just saying this for the sake of this post, I’m saying this because … More Week 2 Recap – BELIEVE | #WordoftheWeek2020
Resistance to change has been one of the biggest things to bring me and my mood down in the past few years. I start something new, things go fine for a few days, then life throws me a curve ball (I don’t even know which sport that phrase belongs to, but it fits) and I … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 1 – Adapt
We often start new years with a whole list of resolutions that, for many of us, fade away as the year progresses, and I say this from experience. Based on my past, I’ve realised that the reason(s) for that could be one or more or all of the following: My goals were overambitious I didn’t … More Word of the Week
