Are you sick and tired of living a monotonous and meaningless life? Wouldn’t you wish to live a happy and prosperous life? How about facing all your fears, insecurities and doubts without having to join any rigorous or expensive seminars and instead by tuning into weekly inspirational tips and talks discussing mental and emotional health? Here at Unfiltered Emotions Unplugged, I will walk you through valuable insights to get rid of all the unnecessary baggage you are holding onto which is preventing you from living the life of your dreams.
But before I begin, let me introduce myself; I am Natasha Lalwani, a podcaster, motivational speaker, writer, blogger, fashion designer and stylist. I am blessed to share various cultures as I was born and brought up in Spain by Indian parents. What was at one time a meaningless life is today a great journey. Today I am a successful entrepreneur owning two companies but that wasn’t how it started off. I was a dyslexic child who used to sit at the back row of each classroom so that my teachers and classmates wouldn’t make a mockery out of me and call me “dumb." This very journey from a fearful, introvert girl with no self-confidence and self-love to a successful and empowering woman has been quite like being on a roller-coaster.
There will be many episodes where I will share with you certain anecdotes, milestones and failures before I reached this chapter in my life. But before that let me dedicate this introductory podcast to one of my favorite topics which is having gratitude. Trillions of people all around the world practice the “attitude of gratitude” as it is one of the most powerful human emotions we possess. Many of us start off our days by being grateful for all that we have, most of which are the simplest and basic for us, but a luxury for others. Conversely, when we aren’t grateful for all that we do have, we tend to take people and things for granted and become judgmental towards them. This creates mental blocks with clustered negative thoughts and emotions that penetrate through us and make us feel devastated.
So we should always appreciate all the people, events, and experiences in our lives as well as appreciate ourselves for all the time, effort, and energy we channelize on us. I have always stressed on the fact that self-love is essential in having a balanced life; thus self-gratitude is a focal point of self-love. If we don’t appreciate ourselves then how will others appreciate us for what we truly are?
You choose how to practice gratitude and make it a habit. Experiment new and fun ways which you are most welcome to share in the comments below. Let’s wind up here by reminding ourselves that feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.
