Noticing My Triggering Patterns

IMG-20190205-WA0000_2

I had a call this week where I was being challenged and grilled even though the intention of the person was very kind. I noticed a contraction in my stomach, my default setting of not being good enough and unworthy was secretly activated. I noticed becoming border line defensive, a bit annoyed. I thought I had practiced enough over the past 7 years ever since this pattern had been uncovered when I went to coaching school. Obviously not! We are given lessons from the Universe to develop and grow.

I observed myself from the outside, took a few conscious breaths and started to ‘be’ from a space of dignity and self worth.

The first step was to notice, the second was to ask myself the possibilities that I might be sabotaging as a result of this pattern within me. The conversation ended magically, I thanked the friend that I was talking to for the kind intention and the learnings of the conversation.

What pattern dominates your way of Being? What will your alarm bell be this week?

Namaste,

Love Conquers

IMG-20190206-WA0001I just finished speaking to my Hungarian teacher and I asked her for feedback on my progress. The feedback I received was that I’m much more confident to speak with an intention towards mastery than ever before. I reflected back that the reason I am confident is because of her patience and kindness without judgment.

I get nervous when I am feeling judged and start making mistakes.

She reiterated back how much she adores me which is what motivates her and is a big driver during our calls.

It’s amazing how love is the one singular force that drives and motivates us.

What will you do to consciously bring the love, care and kindness towards your fellow humans this weekend?

Namaste,

Weekend Post

My week began with a part of my tooth breaking off. It was extremely uncomfortable and my tongue was in danger of being cut or bitten by the sharpness of the broken tooth. I was required to work and speak during the day and noticed huge discomfort. I was extremely blessed to receive an emergency appointment with my dear dentist who was working that afternoon. I was thankful to not have to reschedule any work-related appointments.

As the day passed in discomfort, I recognized yet again how blessed we are with the human body. Every small part works seamlessly and in harmony. When sickness hits us, something begins to malfunction.

My takeaway is as follows: As humans, we try to control and micromanage every aspect of our lives. In turn, we end up jeopardizing our well-being. The power that keeps the world going is perfectly capable of taking care of us.

Why do we interfere? What will your small practice be to recognize when you are going against nature and doing yourself more harm than good?

Namaste,

Prayer

Tamaso ma jyotirgamaya
Lead me from darkness to Light.

The prayer that comes to me repeatedly is the above. This has been the one practice that my Being has been indulging in this week. I have focused on my heart chakra and there’s a lightness of Being.

I urge you to practice. Your life, Being, leadership style will experience power and transformation.

Namaste,

Tamaso ma jyotirgamaya
Vezess engem a sötetétségből a világosságba

A fenti ima velem van folyamatosan. … (i could not translate that sentence)
A szív csakrámra fókuszáltam, itt van a létezés könnyedsége.

Bíztatlak, hogy gyakorolj. Transzformációt és hatalmat fogsz tapasztalni az életedben, a létezésedbenés a vezetési stílusodban.

Namaste,

Weekend Musings

The mind and intelligence are necessary tools to conduct our lives. The error we humans make is to abuse these tools when we recognize that life is not moving in accordance to the way our mind and intelligence expect. This is when we must learn the tool of detachment, surrender and the art of simply Being.

My ‘go to’ practice is firmly rooting myself in the present moment, a morning yoga practice and journaling. What will yours be?

Namaste,

Az elme és az intelligencia szükséges eszközök az életünk irányításához. A hibát akkor követjük el, amikor tévesen használjuk ezeket az eszközöket, mert rájövünk, hogy az élet nem abba az irányba halad, amelyet az elménk és az intelligenciánk elvár. Ekkor kell megtanulnunk a szétválasztás, megadás eszközét és a szimplán csak lenni művészetét.

Az én gyakorlatom az, hogy szilárdan átélem a jelenlegi pillanatot egy reggeli jóga gyakorlatban és naplózásban. Mi lesz a tiéd?

Namaste,

LOVE

As I sit in prayer, contemplation this morning, the one word that comes to me is LOVE.

It is indeed a powerful emotion, once learnt it can work wonders. The more you give of it, the better you feel.

How are you going to love this week? Will you marinate love with expectations? Or will you love because it makes you feel good?

My experience has been powerful over the holidays when I simply loved despite my mind. Are you willing to conquer your mind by giving yourself just the right amount of care? Learning to stay away from feelings of resentment. It might be quite magical.

Namaste,
Prerna

SZERETETT

Ahogy a reggeli imámban, elmélkedèsemben ülök, a SZERETET szó jön hozzám.

Egy erőteljes érzelem, ami csodákat képes művelni. Minél többet adsz belőle, annál jobban érzed magad.

Hogyan fogsz szeretni ezen a héten? Élvárásokkal fogod övezni a szeretetet? Vagy azért fogsz szeretni, mert jobban érzed magad tőle?

Az én tapasztalatom nagyon erőteljes volt az ünnepek alatt, szimplán szerettem annak ellenére, amit az elme mondott. Meghódítod az elméd azzal, hogy megfelelő mennyiségű törődést adsz magadnak? Megtanulni, hogyan kerüljük el a neheztelés érzését… varázslatos tud lenni.

Namaste,

Staying Present

As I’m observing clients, friends at holiday events and end of year sessions I am noticing many of them are already in the future. Some are nervous about the holidays, some feel overwhelmed and some are busy finishing off their last minute duties hurriedly. They speak fast, they speak loud, they are simply rushing around.

I have been noticing clutter and noise as well but my one practice this week has been to stay truly connected with the present moment no matter what it is bringing forth. It has served me well.

I urge you to connect with the present moment and let that stick to your Being like sticky tape. It will soon become a habit. Consciously feel the taste of food and drink during the holidays and enjoy every bite with your loved ones.

Namaste and happy holidays! Talk to you in 2019. I take a short break to enjoy and travel with my girls.

Find stillness in your busyness

As I’m winding down after a busy yet productive week, the mantra that I’ve found myself repeating a lot is to find the stillness in the busyness. How can we manage these two opposites? This is the paradox of life. Once we learn this, we are playing on the field of life. Magic reveals itself every minute and physical fatigue seems distant.

How will you find stillness in your busyness a week before the holidays? What will you practice? My practice has been to be present, to breathe consciously more, to stay away from too much screen time.

Happy holiday season

Találd meg a nyugalmat a pörgésben.

Kezdek lazítani egy pörgős, de produktív hét után. A mantra, amit sokat mondogattam magamnak ez volt: Találd meg a nyugalmas a pörgésben. Hogyan tudjuk kezelni ezt a két ellentétet? Ez az élet paradoxa. Amikor megtanuljuk, akkor játszunk az élet mezején.  A csoda minden percben felfedi saját magát, és a testi fáradtság távolinak tűnik.

Hogyan fogsz nyugalmat találni a pörgésben egy héttel az ünnepek előtt? Mi lesz a gyakorlatod? Az én gyakorlatom az volt, hogy a pillanatban voltam, többet lélegeztem tudatosan és elkerültem a sok képernyő előtt töltött időt.

Boldog Ünnepeket!

“All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on.” – Havelock Ellis

This quote has been pervading my Being this week. We make the choices to serve ourselves in the best possible manner. Most of our sadness arises due to clinging to the past, happenings that we cannot change. Let us learn from our mistakes and become wiser with every passing day.

Namaste,

These words by Lao Tzu resonate with my Being these last days.

“One who understands others has knowledge
One who understands himself has wisdom 
Mastering others requires force 
Mastering the self is strength”

What will you do to become strong and master the self this week? My practice has been to be a rigorous soldier managing my inner thoughts, narrative in order to serve myself.

Namaste,

Lao Tzu szavai rezonálnak velem a héten.

“Az, aki ért másokat, nagy tudású
Az, aki érti magát, bölcs
Megfékezni másokat erőt igényel.
Megfékezni magad kitartás.”

 

Mit fogsz tenni, hogy erős legyél és megfékezd magad ezen a héten? Az én gyakorlatom az volt, hogy szigorú katonaként felügyeltem és igazgattam a belső gondolataimat, azért hogy szolgáljam magam.

Namaste,
