Ever caught your mind spinning a whole story just because someone didn’t reply, or a moment felt unclear? In this episode of Chai Therapy, we explore how our minds fill gaps with assumptions—often causing stress that isn’t even real. From late replies to unspoken looks, we’ll reflect on why we do this, and how to pause, breathe, and see things just as they are. 🌿

Take this as your gentle reminder: not every silence needs a story.

We often judge people too quickly! But what if they’re actually mirrors, showing us parts of ourselves we’ve ignored? In this episode of Chai Therapy, I explore how every person we meet can teach us patience, compassion, or boundaries — if we’re willing to notice.

Why do some people trigger you so much? The truth is, they’re not just “annoying” — they’re mirrors. In this episode of Chai Therapy, I share how irritating people can reflect your hidden needs, old wounds, and boundaries you still need to build and how to turn those triggers into teachers.

Have you ever noticed how the people around you often reflect parts of yourself back to you - sometimes the good, sometimes the uncomfortable? In this episode of The Chai Therapy, we explore the idea that everybody is your mirror. The qualities you admire in others, as well as the habits that irritate you, can reveal hidden truths about your own inner world.

Through stories and gentle reflections, we’ll talk about how relationships; whether with loved ones, friends, or even those who challenge us, can become powerful teachers. Instead of reacting with judgment, what if we paused and asked: “What is this person showing me about myself?”

Grab your cup of chai, and let’s dive into this refreshing perspective on self-awareness, growth, and seeing life through the mirrors people hold up for us.

We all carry invisible filters - built from past experiences, beliefs, wounds, and even hopes. But what if these very filters are keeping us from seeing people clearly? From understanding ourselves deeply? From experiencing life… truthfully?

In today’s episode of The Chai Therapy, we explore the unseen layers between us and reality. The stories we unknowingly tell ourselves. The lenses that blur our vision, especially when we think we’re being “rational” or “right.”

It’s not about fixing or judging. It’s about gently becoming aware…Because when the filters fall away, what’s left is clarity, connection, and maybe… a bit of truth.

Come, sit with me. Let’s sip and see a little clearer today.

Feeling stuck even after gaining clarity about your goals and values? You’re not alone.

In this episode of The Chai Therapy, We explore why we sometimes remain stagnant even after self-discovery. What psychological and emotional patterns hold us back, and how to gently move past them. A must-listen for anyone on their self-growth, healing, or mindfulness journey.

In this episode of The Chai Therapy, I share how discovering and defining my core values completely shifted the way I live, make decisions, and build relationships. When you know your values, whether it’s freedom, honesty, kindness, or growth; you stop living on autopilot and start living with clarity!

I’ll walk you through why values matter, how to identify your own, and how aligning with them can bring peace even in moments of confusion.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about your next step, this episode is for you.

We’ve all had those days where the tiniest thing sets us off- traffic, a late reply or even poor WiFi connection, but what if the real question isn’t “Why am I angry?” rather it’s “Where is my energy leaking?”

In this episode of The Hanuman Lens, I’m reflecting on the verse:

“Sukshma roop dhari Siya hi dikhava, Bikat roop dhari Lank jarava”

and how Hanuman’s ability to shift between softness and strength can help us decide when to stay calm and when to use our fire.

A gentle reminder that not everything needs burning… some things just need noticing.
