My self-love mirror..


 Namaste my babies! Long time, no see. 

Well, Bar Exams + work turned me into a hot mess. Now that the exams are done, let's move on to another episode of 'Talking sense with Juhi'. I don't know how much sense do I make with these blogs, but nevertheless they do conclude with some sense (hopefully). Now, lets proceed with the title. 

I am going to tell you a small story about my self-love incident. Okay so I was all new to this concept of self-love back in I guess 2017 during my fourth year in law college. I started reading a lot of books, blogs and was following all the motivational peeps out there on social media. They all pretty much fixated on the concept of self-love for a fruitful life. One of the authors (can't remember her name now) spoke of a wonderful technique of self-love which required looking at yourself in the mirror and saying 'I love you', either in your mind or out loud, preferably with a smile. She also suggested saying affirmations out loud while admiring your reflection. Anyway, this concept made some sense to me as I had never really 'confessed' to myself. So, one day I was during my break from college lectures, I took a trip to the empty bathroom to apply some eyeliner (didn't wanna look sleepy during morning class). As I was doing the same, suddenly this wild thought appeared in my mind, "why not try the self-love technique right here in-front of this mirror." I spontaneously whispered 'I love you' to myself and smiled ludicrously into my reflection. As soon as my self-love emotions sank in the bathroom door flung opened and a student walked in. It didn't take a second for me to change my emotions from self-love to self-regret and I immediately stumbled outside the bathroom with my gaze down. I realised the student was staring at me with a confused expression but I chose to keep mum and walk out. 

This incident thought me a very big lesson ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, yeah self-love and all is cool but please keep your calm in public when it comes crazy techniques. You can love yourself covertly.Period. 

Let me know how did you like my adventurous self-love escapade in the comments. And if you know me personally, please text me I am awaiting. Buh-bye!

Light of joy!

Hello there and welcome to another episode of "Talking sense with Juhi".. What? What was that? when was the first episode you ask? Well, if my blogs or my instagram posts make any sense at all to you, you are on track with me.   So now the title needs to be elaborated like how I elaborate answers in my law exams. The only difference is I had no idea what I was writing in those papers (God bless my examiner).   I am sure a lot of us love scrolling through our social media during  this quarantine pt 2. I do it too. But did anyone of you notice how that makes you feel? Especially now that we are into this whole new phase of pandemic. Let me put it straight to you, it makes you feel like sh*t. We all are stuck in this loophole of never ending negativity (you cannot deny this) and the fun part is we love churning and churning about it the whole day, discuss it with multiple friends and family members and make sure that their mood is also as sh*itty as yours. Its like...
