Positivity in Relationships....

Image
Positivity in Relationships.... I love this statement, and it is true in the sense that in a relationship, the most important aspect between two people is the ability to hear what isn’t being said. For example, when a baby is born and cries, the mother immediately realizes or senses whether her child is hungry, unwell, or upset. Without the child knowing, she acts on it. A mother instinctively ensures that her child doesn’t cry for long. She uses her intuition, thought process, or even seeks advice from experienced people to comfort her baby. What a beautiful relationship between a mother and her child! This bond mirrors the relationship between God and a true devotee. The moment a devotee faces difficulty, God performs miracles to help them overcome their problems without stress. We’ve often heard stories about Lord Rama, Lord Krishna, and their devotees. When relationships are deeply understood, there is no need for words—they simply exist for each other. Such relationships carry ete...

Celebration of Uniqueness...

  Celebration of Uniqueness.... As I reflect on my journey as an audiologist and speech-language pathologist, I realize that the essence of my work and life lies in celebrating uniqueness—not just in others but also in myself. My ability to connect with people, whether through a warm smile, a heartfelt conversation, or an empathetic gesture, has been the foundation of my practice. Each patient I meet teaches me something new, reinforcing the belief that individuality is a gift. Every interaction is an opportunity to honor the distinctive qualities that make us who we are. What sets me apart is not just my skills or qualifications but my passion and compassion. We are trained to deeply care for every person who walks into our clinic, and this connection fuels our commitment to their well-being. Whether it's helping a child hear their first sound or guiding an adult through the complexities of communication, our work is more than a profession; it is our calling. Flexibility, both in ...

Nurturing Confidence....

  Nurturing Confidence.... There are so many beautiful things around us, but the most beautiful thing we possess is confidence. Even if you are not conventionally beautiful in appearance, carrying confidence within yourself ensures that everyone notices you—not by your face, but by the elegant smile of confidence you wear, the aura you possess, or the goodness of your soul reflected in your deeds. In today's world, especially during this age of scientific progress, this self-assured confidence is essential. Recently, during a visit to Norway, we explored an ice cave. While trekking toward the cave, we came across a stream. Our guide performed impressive push-ups (a yoga posture) without touching the water or getting wet, demonstrating how to drink from the stream. Two men from our group tried it and succeeded. Watching them, I felt inspired to try as well since I practice push-ups regularly as part of my exercise routine. I managed to do it just like the men did, and it made me fee...

Sound of Love....

  Sound of Love.... Our human brain hears sound, interprets and understands it, and then expresses it in our own way. This means that if every human being hears the sound of love, everyone will learn to express themselves through their own sound of love. Love has no boundaries, and similarly, the sound of love knows no boundaries either. I feel that love for sound and the sound of love are deeply interconnected. Recently, I have encountered many adult patients with mild to moderate hearing loss who have not fully experienced sound. As a result, their speech is unclear, they lack confidence, struggle with their work, feel different from others, and face many other negative emotions. Those who cannot hear around 95% as others with normal hearing do often miss out on sound in life, and with it, the experience of receiving and feeling love from others. Hearing sound is essential not only for communication but also for spreading love. This is something I have come to understand deeply o...

Quality Time, Quality Bonding...

  Quality Time, Quality Bonding.... When a devotee engages in intense prayers and gets lost in the divine feelings of faith in God, and when they start feeling that God is present with them to look after them, that is the moment they develop a true and profound bond with God. The day a devotee experiences this real connection, miracles begin to happen in their life. We have heard the story of Shravana, a true devotee of God, who believed that after God, his parents were the real gods on this earth. To honor them, he carried both of his parents on his shoulders and took them on a pilgrimage, demonstrating to the world the unimaginable bond between parents and a son. Similarly, the bond between Draupadi and Lord Krishna was miraculous, exemplifying the relationship of a brother and sister. Another example is the bond between Ratan Tata and his employees, which has set an example for this generation. All these examples were only possible because of the quality time devoted to each oth...

Celebrate the Individuality of your Child.....

  Celebrate the Individuality of your Child We were traveling in Norway from Oslo to Tromsø. It was a short flight, and we had two cabin crew members serving on this European flight. One of the cabin crew looked very beautiful, and as an audiologist who works with ears, I noticed she had a beautifully shaped ear, almost as if it were carved. I felt like talking to her, so I mentioned that she had a beautiful ear shape. She thanked me and started laughing. I asked where she was from, and she said she was born and raised in Iceland and loves her country. I told her I work with ears and had never seen an ear quite like hers. She promptly replied, "Somehow, I'm lucky; I have good genes." Her reply made me think deeply. I saw the Northern Lights, which people in Iceland and Norway believe bring blessings from ancestors, and now this girl spoke about her genes, giving them so much value. We are all born with unique genes from our ancestors, which include blessings from our gods...

In the midst of darkness, light persists

  In the midst of darkness, light persists I have always felt that when we think about nature and positivity, the sight of a rainbow never fails to bring smiles to people’s faces. It signifies optimism and hope, symbolizing sunshine after the rain. A rainbow is made up of countless tiny raindrops, just as happy lives are built from countless small acts of kindness. This is a thought that resonates with everyone who sees a rainbow in the sky. However, when I recently saw the Northern Lights in Iceland, my perspective shifted. Watching those vibrant colors dancing across the sky, surrounded by shining stars, filled me with an incredible sense of awe and positivity. Scientifically, the colors of the Northern Lights result from electrons entering Earth’s atmosphere and colliding with gaseous particles. As humans, we often have an emotional response to darkness, feeling uneasy or foreboding when it appears in the sky or in our lives. But the Northern Lights reminded me that even in the ...
