Self-Care With Shaki

Most of the decisions we take are dominated by our unconscious mind. It means that we are making decisions without our own influence. Even though your unconscious mind works 24/7 tirelessly, keeping all your organs operating, it is lazy. So it chooses the path of least resistance. As 95% of your decisions are controlled by your subconscious, it will always direct you to be lazy in whatever you do. How to control your subconscious mind? You have to put some effort to control it. Rather, you can trick your unconscious. Basically, your conscious mind is an interface of the tremendous brain. You can consciously control some of your actions which in turn will have an imprint on your unconscious mind and then it will start to act accordingly. For example, if you chose to lose weight, your subconscious mind wouldn't encourage it. It does not like effort. So if you tend to obey your subconscious, then you might end up skipping the gym and eating chips while watching

Even though these dogs are twins, they both differ so much in their characteristics. Tutu safeguards the village, it never allows any other dog to enter into the village, it loves everyone in the village and is kind whereas kuttu is arrogant, it bites all the kids that are playing and always barks unnecessarily. These villagers loved tutu and hated kuttu. They also started feeding tutu more and taking care of it as if their own pet. On the other side, kuttu was fed very less and was not given any importance. As a result of this, the kind tutu started being more favorable to its caretakers and kuttu became very week to even bark. We all have tutu and kuttu within us. It all depends on who we feed the most. If you feed the positive personality more, you will a positive person with all t

Career is not just a mere work we do to get paid. It is the most important part of our life. Moreover, the career path we chose, chooses our lifestyle in turn. You may want to be an entrepreneur, but if you are stuck at a 9 to 5 then your ideal life and the current life might not align and this will be a major cause of stress and anxiety. Most people suffer from anxiety when they are not in their desired job. They work for half of their life only to realize that this is not what they wanted.

If your passion is really important to you, you will find a way to do it no matter what crisis you face. Reasons such as financially weak or not so good at it are just me

This might trigger fear which in turn turns into anxiety. Every one of us would have experienced anxiety at least once in our lives. Basically, anxiety comes and goes without causing much trouble. But, it becomes a trouble when it stays with you and is disrupting your daily activities. Anxiety might stay for months and even years making every single day a huge hurdle to cross. Fortunately, with proper medical guidance, one can overcome anxiety. Some people would prefer to go with medication while others would recommend therapy/counseling. Any mental disorder is as important or even more important than physical suff
