“Diseases of the soul are more dangerous and more numerous than those of the body.”
While many of us regularly spend some time taking care of our health (hopefully), these efforts are usually focused only on our physical well-being. We rarely focus enough on our emotional and mental health and most importantly on our spiritual well being. Nourishing our soul is arguably the most important agenda we ought to be attending to in human life.
When I sit in my office and look out of the large windows frosted with rain drops and birds tweeting on large trees with beautiful hues of greens and some red flowers peeping out to make a statement, I sit and wonder what are things I love doing. So I decided to make a list and give it a rating similar to the hotels J
Inspired by Luke Couthino talk I attended yesterday!
5 stars for my most favorite experience
4 stars for my next best experiences
3 stars for a mediocre experiences yet which I like to do
1. Reading an engaging book with a cup of ginger tea lying in my bay window of my dining room. 5 *****
2. Sitting in my office, pausing from doing my emails and looking at the rain drops hitting the large windows and seeing the cloudy skies beyond 4 ****
3. Listening to my favorite playlists with ear pods sitting in my terrace garden 3***
4. Doing HIIT and cross fit workouts 5*****
5. Going for a walk early morning on the roads near my home filled with large trees 4 ****
6. Spending time with family and friends 5*****
7. Socializing or entertaining at work 3 ***
8. Immersion in creating new food concepts or anything creative at work 4****
9. Shopping for books in a large book store 4***
10.Eating Biryani as soon as I wake up at 1 pm on Sundays. 3***
11.Netflix binging in bed on a holiday 3 ***
I encourage all of you to make your own soul nourishing lists and give it the star rating and try and get as many 5 star experiences as possible into your life.
Share them if you feel you can so that it will help other discover more options.
