Clear those mails from years that have just taken up space in your mind and your hard drive but have added no other value otherwise. Clean the drafts folders - the desolate cyber land of fear of rejection, unsent mails, drafts, manuscripts and love notes. Clean old text messages from those special someones from the days of yore. Spring clean your mind. Of the guilt that has been shoved under carpets, the shame in the closets, the conditioning in a box in a garage, regrets in shoe boxes in almirahs, and heartaches in polybags under the kitchen sink.           The universe hates empty spaces. And as you create space in your heart and home, Goddess Lakshmi will fill it up with abundance - of love, riches, good health, happiness, relationships, ideas, fulfilled dreams, manifested desires and joy.           Drop the layers and layers of your conditioning and wear new clothes of love and purpose. Dress up in your most authentic self and wear your fearlessness and freedom on your chest like a badge of honour.           Give gifts. And the best gift you can give to anyone is you and your love. Show up to serve others and instead of putting yourself in a gift box, unbox your riches, gold, gems and gift them to the world.           Celebrate your own homecoming after winning the war over your own ego and everything that kept you from celebrating and showing your own divinity. Celebrate your own homecoming - from the head back to heart, from the ego to the soul, from blackmithy to alchemy, from rewards back to wonder.           Burst the crackers. Burn the beliefs that serve you no more. Burst the sutli bombs of comparison, jealousy, manipulation, greed, control and martyrdom.           Re-ignite the lamps of your childhood dreams, passions, needs, wants, urges, obsessions, escapes, intuitive instincts, go-to activities, longings, yearnings, compulsions, hunger, lust, thirst, and cravings. Re-ignite the spark with the potential of it becoming an inferno of joy. Forgive those who dimmed your light and allow them to shine in their own way.           May you celebrate you.           Happy Diwali.                 You’re enough. You’re a thousand times enough.                     Yes, today you may be feeling that your life is a mess, but that doesn't mean that your life IS a mess. See how far you've come from five years ago, from a year ago, from a month ago, even from yesterday. Right now, you may not feel that way, but you know you have overcome things you never thought you could, you've taken decisions that have changed your beliefs about your own power. So, what if you don't feel like getting out of bed today? That doesn't mean you're not enough.           You're not behind. You've not missed the bus. You're not even out of place even by a second or a millimetre. You are exactly where you are meant to be. Maybe your definition of success is not really yours. It's your expectations of you because of someone’s expectations of you. Read that again. Sure, today you may seem like you've missed the bus, but maybe you want to get out of bed and go to the bus stop. The next one will be coming soon. Hop on to that one. Maybe that is the one in which a seat is reserved for you.           You are enough because you know that even if you feel that you have not moved one bit in the last year, you have. You have constantly been walking on a path meant for you and you only, and not a path that someone drew for you as a map to enlightenment. Yes, you may have had dead-ends, detours, U-turns, gravel paths and abrupt landslides but you have been walking. The speed, well again, that is your mind trying to take over the timeline and show you goals. The only goal is self-realisation and there's no deadline for it. Whenever you reach, love will be there for you.           You are enough because you found love in places you never knew existed. You met yourself when no one else was there for you. You came face to face with your fears and surrendered to them, taking them as a part of you. Maybe you feel you're not enough because there’s a deeper fear lurking in the shadows which is keeping you from your enough-ness.           Instead of worrying about how life could be, take a bow and congratulate yourself. For had you not been enough, life would not have been this. Sure, maybe you would have been someplace else. But how do you know that place would have been better and enough for you?                     Watch All Episodes Here                 This week, let's revisit     Nainital February 2023                                 For a daily dose of Creativegarh and our retreats, follow us here:                         Experience a life full of purpose                     My purpose is to give people the gift of living a healthy and happy life.   Neha Verma Kasauli, April 2023         The purpose of my life is to nourish and uplift the world with joy, inspiration, opportunities and melody to create a symphony with harmony.   Kala Bhandari Kasauli, April 2023         Our upcoming retreats                         Jodhpur Sold out 18th to 24th February     In the heart of Rajasthan’s royal city, let us take you on a transformative journey of self-discovery, mindfulness and rejuvenation.
