Body Shaming Hurts Men Too
It’s a myth that only women suffer from body shaming & not men. The assumption driving this belief is that men care only about career shaming, about where one works, how much one earns & the symbols of success one flaunts. In an Instagram and snapchat driven world, where edited selfies & perfect faces drive desire, male beauty is more prominent than ever. The truth that unfolds in my clinical research is that men worry as much about their bodies as women. Some of the issues that cause them immense worry include; 1. Male breasts & the need to hide them. This...

#1. Sameness breeds Contentment As we sit by the Wangchu Riverside at Terma Linka, in Thimphu, under a silvery moon with colored flags flapping in the chilly breeze, many interesting insights sprout in my awareness about the happiness quotient of this place. I love the way the Bhutanese people all dress the same way. When no one needs to stand out and be seen as different, life becomes a lot easier and much less complicated.

Two days ago, on a Facebook chat, my soul brother pointed out to me that overcoming all our fears didn’t automatically make us more loving. Love he emphasized, needed to be cultivated, and it was our progression in love that determined our state of oneness with God.

Forget the challenge of facing the world, i couldn’t accept my own self. Then I met my mentor and layer by layer she peeled my confusion away. She told me that the day I learnt to accept myself, the universe would unfold it’s grace and I would be at peace.I shared my secret with my best friend, my sister and cousin.

“She came into my life almost 13 years ago when I was finding it hard to cope with life’s trials. I was new to Mumbai and she was a counsellor who would come home every week and spend time with me, lifting my spirit and helping me sort out my mind. This went on for years and we grew really close. Five years back, I had a miscarriage and at the same time she was diagnosed with Multiple Myloma. It came as a rude shock to me. But even though she really suffered, she didn’t lose her smile. She fought her illness bravely with such positivity. A couple of months later, I had to...
