Twelve? 52? 365? One every day because when you follow your joy and your purpose, it calls on you to do the inner work and fall totally, relentlessly and irrevocably in love with yourself. And as you heal, you realise, the person you are in the evening is so very different than the one that pushed aside her warm duvet in the morning, had a coffee and walked out of the front door to follow her joy. Every day is a rebirthday of sorts and every time you put yourself in the world, every time you live your passion, every time you honour your purpose, every time you show up with love, you bring back home not only a feather in your cap but a spring in your step, a dance in your soul, light in your being and another candle for your life’s cake of fulfilment.           You don't grow old but a lot wiser. You don't get a heart that has to work harder but one that gets tender and bigger. You don't find it harder to see and hear, but you see and hear clearly the stories that you were living. Your hands don't become shaky but have an urgency to rewrite those narratives. Your skin doesn’t get thinner but thicker so that the ups and downs and the trials and tribulations of life don't wound you anymore. You don't get wrinkles, but you iron them out from your life. You don't lose hair, but you lose the urge to pull your hair when things don't go your way. Your metabolism doesn't slow down but your ability to digest the hardships of the past becomes a lot better. Your kidneys don't start giving up, but you get better at processing all the shit that comes your way. You don't get sunspots on your skin, but you do come across as someone who’s spotted the light and has swallowed the sun.           Not every birthday will be parties and songs. Chances are that on most of the birthdays on this journey, you'll be alone, all by yourself with no one wishing for God to bless you.           There may not be buntings and balloons and no playing passing the parcel. There may be no musical chairs and Chinese whispers but there will always be love. There will always be your inner child, your angels, guides, gurus, ancestors and the universe in attendance, singing happy birthday to you. Every single day.                 It’s not how you fall, but how you rise.                     But to rise, you have to fall. And fall you will. Not once, not twice, not thrice but enough times for you to lose count and accept that in falling again and again is where your calling lies.           You will be felled by the blows of your growing up years, the headbutt of your relationships, the punches of your teachers, the whacks of life’s experiences, the slaps of your decisions taken in haste, the hostilities of your actions that ended up in regret, the assault of your rejections that left with more than your heart broken, the ambush of your closest ones who said words that killed your spirit, the thrashing of your life’s expectations that you never could meet, the pummelling by the drama kings and queens in your life who always want the spotlight on them, the aggression of siblings, the lashing out of clients, the roughing up by friends from whom you expected more than just a passing comment, the rebuke of an ex, the criticism of your critics who had their own agendas to serve, the fault finding by your parents who never saw you as more than their own redemption of their life’s failures, the allegations by bosses, the hammering by baes and beaus.           Imagine, everything has tried to kick you into oblivion and turn you into nothing. And from this nothingness, from this dropping every layer of programming, every bit of conditioning, every accessory of guilt, shame, anger and regret, you will emerge like a phoenix to become everything that you were meant to be. Every blow to you will allow you to blow away the detractors from your path and purpose, paving the way for you to answer your calling.           And in your rising, you will let others rise and you will lift them too. You will create paths not only for yourself but for others to walk on. When you overcome the odds, you will inspire others to even out their lives. When you choose to shine your light, you will spark a brilliance in others. When you create the boundaries, others too will draw the line where it should have been in the first place. When you forgive those who hurt you, you will open the others to let go of their grudges as well and make space for miracles in their lives.           The calling is in the falling.                     Watch All Episodes Here                 This week, let's revisit     Sakleshpur August 2022                                 For a daily dose of Creativegarh and our retreats, follow us here:                         Experience a life full of purpose                     My purpose is to act as a catalyst to spark fortunes, change relationships with abundance and enable our wealth to serve us.   Raveena Yagnik Kasauli, April 2023         The purpose of my life is to empower and mentor hungry, ambitious, and underprivileged girls to find their career paths aligned to their strengths and help them thrive.   Loveena Khatwani Kasauli, April 2023         Our upcoming retreats                         Mandi Last 5 seats left 17th to 23rd March     Mandi’s tranquil environment serves as the perfect backdrop for personal metamorphosis, ensuring you return home with a revitalized spirit and fresh perspective of life!   More details     Reignite conversation     Kasauli Registrations Open 21st to 27th April     The stunning vistas and holistic experiences at Kasauli create the perfect space for self-discovery, and ensure this retreat is a transformative and unforgettable experience!   More details     Reignite conversation     Andretta Registrations Opening Soon 2nd to 8th June     To reconnect to your inner child at a beautiful hillside retreat with 14+ soulful individuals will make this a life-transforming experience.
