The Journey and Experience of Mira Manek

The writer, an Indian herself, talks about how she discovers her true self and Ayurveda by travelling within her own continent for the experience.

During her travels in India she discovered; yoga, received treatment at an Ayurveda Resort, attended spiritual recitals in the local villages with her spiritual teacher and met her yoga guru from Jaipur.

She describes the travelling experience as colourful and varied, and that is how The Incredible India is best portrayed.

A travel journalist at the time, the author, who is presently an entrepreneur living in London, and can relate to the western lifestyle, talks about her past life, from the time she was studying to her career success and continuous travelling.

This hectic lifestyle brought about chaos in her life, that in turn affected her health and even her emotions and her marriage.

At the time she was oblivious to her situation until an ayurvedic practitioner examined her pulse and commented that he felt there is ´no happiness pulse´.

She had thought she was happy and fulfilled with her accomplishments, however she realised she was conditioned and still had so much more to learn to be happy.

She then realised that she was certainly doing and coping with things, but lacked feelings.

What she then describes as depression, anger and rage, is what made her react.

Soul Searching and Regaining Balance

This is when Mira Manek, the writer, was inspired to start the journey of transformation.

She compares this self transformation with giving birth, where it can be very painful but then it will bring along joy.

She was taught how to;

• carry out daily rituals
• practice yoga
• do proper breathing exercises
• stay still and do nothing.

She learned how to use this energy to enhance the immunity and use that strength in moments of battle, whenever it arises.

The author learned how to understand and accept that pain is part of the journey, however if you are physically and mentally strong, you will also know how to come out of it.

Being sane will make it easier for you to obtain clarity.

She sought help in Ayurveda and the simplicity of implementing small but important rituals in everyday life, which she found have enhanced her well-being and happiness.

Being present and aware of almost everything you do (mindfulness) makes you understand the real meaning of inner happiness.

Making Rituals can be a basic thing like; laugh, eat slowly, go for a walk, enjoy a cup of tea or create some sort of art. 

Rangoli – Indian Art

During festivals or special occasions in India, it is traditional form of art to create different patterns with coloured rice, sand or petals, usually placed on the floor at the main entrance to WELCOME YOU.
