At the threshold of a New Year, I’m not making resolutions or an annual round up Just offering celebratory, energising, exorcising and motivating thoughts for 2025. I found an old note on my writing journal (yes- 2025 will see me back at my writing desk) Whenever you feel lost, think of it as preparation What are you preparing for? And I’m sharing a nourishing journaling tradition from @suleikajaouad @theisolationjournals that I’m starting and adopting as my own ❤️ In place of resolutions, journal your way into the New Year with five lists. What in the last year are you proud of? What did this year leave you yearning for? What’s causing you anxiety? What resources, skills, and practices can you rely on in the coming year? What are your wildest, most harebrained ideas and dreams? #2025 #HNY #richinwhatmatters

I’ve tried to encapsulate the nutritional and lifestyle changes post cancer that I embraced. I’m not skilled at being short and snappy (my heart is firmly in a pre-digital world) so to simplify, I’m sharing the three principles that have transformed my life overall. 1. Toxicity. Anything that doesn’t serve you. Recognise where it shows up in your life – whether in food choices, relationships, people, self talk, the news, environment- and reduce your exposure as much as possible. I made some radical choices over the years since I was diagnosed. It started with diet and eating clean. That was relatively easy compared to cutting out toxic relationships, challenging my inner critic and even scaling back on professional commitments that comprised my emotional health. Today I choose a simpler, slower and more grounded lifestyle, closer to nature that supports my emotional and spiritual well being. I have never felt more content and fulfilled. Hustle culture has never been for me, rather living in alignment is what makes my soul sing. 2. Tune in. If you view your body as a sort of personal communication device, you will pick up on signals both from your environment and from within that will guide you with more integrity and accuracy than following a diet or a program. Getting diagnosed with cancer made me confront how disconnected I had been from my body. I was used to ignoring all my body’s signals until finally I had no choice but to listen. If you have been living in a disassociated state it will take time to learn how to tune in. But it’s so worth it. 3. The bonus point is Trust. But really, trust is the fundamental key to living in wholeness. I believe you can divide everyone up into two camps- you either believe life is FOR you or AGAINST you. And that belief system drives everything in your life. Despite all the ups and downs I believe there is a hand on my back and life is for me. I have focused very intently on trusting my intuition and inner wisdom. And it has made all the difference. I worked diligently on all three principles for years now. And one day the revelation arrrived: The healer is in you. ………………………. MUH @jaynadesaimakeupandhair
There comes a moment in every introvert’s season when the peopling needs to pause. Carrying identities that have been foisted on you by others is back breaking work. Just to be clear – I am not by nature glamorous nor desirous of attention. And so, I rest my personal communication device – the body- by connecting with the everlasting battery – the spirit – and by dipping into a deep well of silence. And words. Some amazing reads right now. Ask me anything about the books or authors. But I won’t reply today.

Sujata Assomull, Journalist and Author and Lisa Ray, Actor, Activist and Author On finding companionship Lisa Ray: Suj and I met in our early 20s when we both arrived in Bombay. From the start, she felt like a sister. I felt so safe with her that after nights out in SoBo, I’d crash at her place instead of heading home to Bandra. As only children, we bonded over defying our backgrounds. In the Bombay of the ’90s, Indian girls returning from abroad were rare – we were outliers who became each other’s secret keepers. Sujata Assomull: From the moment I met Lisa for an interview, our connection was instant. Both finding our footing in India, we bonded over shared experiences and a deep love for the country. We listen, challenge, and push each other while keeping things purposeful and fun.
