My book of poetry, "Stripping- My fight to find Me" is a story of the triumph of the human spirit. It is a story of our deep need for connection and the infinite power of love to heal.

Hello,
I am energy. I am infinity. But I am also a poet, author, artist. wife, mother, sleep doctor, and attachment and complex childhood trauma survivor. I healed only when I understood I was broken, not a victim. I learnt that everything I needed was within me. And that my inner life was the essence and driving force of my existence.

Where did Self Love Self Care First® come from?


I needed to find meaning in my suffering so I kept thinking, “What truth did I come out of this journey with? How can I share what I know in forms other than what I receive through my poetry? What is the most foundational and fundamental truth about human existence that I discovered to be true in my suffering? That is where SLSCF® comes from.

I discovered that if we do not know our truth, we cannot love ourselves. The pain and suffering of our lives, the false external messages about life, success and achievement that we receive, and the projections and imposed expectations of others we are subjected to, mangle our truth, distract us from our destined path, and cut deep into our body, mind, and soul. They cause us to not pay attention to ourselves, and to how we live our lives. These feelings and beliefs descend into our unconscious and become habitual patterns that hijack our lives.

SelfLoveSelfCareFirst® is the journey of truthful self-examination and acceptance of our truth. Only when we are ready to find value, love, and compassion for our true selves do we begin to live free.

This blog is a celebration of love, stillness, growth, joy, discovery, and the truth. The conversation is honest, the topics are varied, the perspectives are from many angles, but the common thread weaving the discussions together is Self Love Self Care First®.

You are not moving towards any light. There is no light out there. It is inside you. You must move inwards- not outwards to look for it. No one can guide you there. Only you can give yourself the permission to embark on this journey. Only you can reclaim yourself.

Your freedom is in your hands.

Gorgeous Gray


 

Hello,

It's Sunita here.


DRESSED 

Morning walk under a drizzling sky.

A pop of colors begs to be seen.

I am compelled to stop and speak with these glorious miracles. 

 

I speak in poem.

 

I see you, orange.

I see you, yellow.

I see you, green.

I see you, garnet red.

I see you, brown.

 

I see you, silent in worship under this somber sky that is showering us with a bountiful space,

To be contemplative and mournful, while we twirl in delight.

 

Let us wash ourselves, with its gift of these pure droplets.

 

Let us start anew, with the refreshed stories of our past.

 

Let us cross over to another day, carrying with us, the tender ghosts of our stories.

 

How blessed are we?

 

Yesterday, we were not what we are today.

A moment ago, we were not who we are right now.

 

To think that I passed by you just yesterday and only saw buds.

Look at you now.

Look at me now.

How glorious are we?

 

Let us rejoice with the divine in the sky.

Today, it wears a gorgeous gray.
