3 Minutes, One Note, and a Calmer You

Because even a whisper to yourself can quiet the chaos.

Sometimes, it’s not about doing more. It’s about pausing for just three minutes and asking yourself: How did today feel?

No filters, no pressure to make it sound good—just you being real with yourself.

Whether you’re a student overwhelmed by deadlines or working your way through back-to-back meetings, life gets a little noisy. And when we carry all that noise inside, it gets harder to hear ourselves.

That’s where this 3-minute journaling ritual steps in. You don’t need a fancy journal. Your phone’s Notes app is more than enough. What matters is the release.

Here’s how it works:

1. How did today feel?

Just spill. Was it frustrating? Calm? A bit of both? No need to justify or fix anything.

2. What’s bothering you right now?

Name it. Don’t sugarcoat it. This is your space to be honest, not nice.

3. Can you do something about it?

If yes—what? If not—breathe and let yourself off the hook. Not everything needs to be solved tonight.

4. Rate how heavy this feels from 1 to 10.

It helps to see the weight. Sometimes we realise something that felt like a 10 was really a 4, once we gave it words.

This little check-in doesn’t change your world overnight. But it helps you feel seen by you. And that’s where peace starts—inside.

Want to try it with me? I’ve created a gentle video to guide you through it. Just hit play, open your Notes app, and write alongside me.

Take this moment for yourself. You deserve to feel lighter.

Even if it's just by 10%

With love,

Rasna.

People Sent for Healing: When Triggers Become Teachers

Understanding Emotional Alchemy Through Human Encounters There are moments when the universe speaks, not through stars or storms, but through people—those unexpected, uncomfortable, often aggravating encounters that rattle something deep within us. These individuals don’t show up by accident. They arrive with the precision of fate, carrying the mirror we’re least ready to face. Not to harm us, but to stretch us, press into our blind spots, and invite our deeper becoming. To the untrained eye, a trigger feels like an offense, a disruption. But underneath, it is often a disguised invitation—a coded message from the soul asking to be heard, seen, and understood. When we learn to sit with the discomfort instead of lashing out or withdrawing, we begin to decode the wisdom these human messengers bring. The Role of Triggers in Healing Healing is rarely gentle. It is not always cloaked in softness or light. Sometimes it comes cloaked in confrontation, tension, silence, or rejection. The very p...

A TV Show Reminded Me Who I Am

Revisiting old comfort shows helped me stop chasing someone else's happiness and start embracing my own. “This was once a dream—now it’s my reality. A desk full of color, creativity, and comfort.” A few days ago, I went back to watching Sam and Cat —yes, that Nickelodeon show from way back. At first, it was just a random nostalgic choice. But what happened next caught me off guard. Suddenly, I was there again—back in that simpler time, listening to the music I loved, thinking about the movies and books I used to enjoy, even remembering the apps I would spend hours on. And for a moment, I forgot about the worries I carry now. I just enjoyed the show for what it was: silly, loud, funny—and incredibly comforting. The Unexpected Power of Nostalgia That small act of revisiting the past gave me a strange but warm sense of peace. It was like a pause button for my current self, a reminder that not everything has to be so heavy. More than anything, it made me reflect on how far I've c...

Reorganize Your Thinking: The Power of Reshaping the Mind for Growth and Freedom

The Art of Reorganizing the Mind Life will always present us with moments where our thoughts betray us. A decision made in haste. A pattern that repeats itself. A loop of imagining, analyzing, or replaying past events until we are exhausted. In those moments, the mind can feel less like a tool and more like a trap. But within that same space of struggle exists the greatest opportunity: the chance to reorganize your thinking . To reorganize the mind is not to erase mistakes, memories, or emotions. It is to take the fragments scattered across our inner world and arrange them into a structure that serves us, not sabotages us. This is not about avoiding discomfort. It is about harnessing it. It is about choosing awareness over autopilot, clarity over chaos, presence over fantasy. Learning From Mistakes Without Becoming Defined by Them Every mistake we make, whether small or devastating, leaves behind a lesson. The problem is not the mistake itself—it is the way we interpret it. When someth...
