Sleep Soundly: Shoonya Vayu Mudra & Wellness Tips for Insomnia

Sleepless nights can feel endless, leaving you drained and unproductive. Insomnia, whether it’s difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up too early, affects countless lives. But what causes it, and how can you reclaim restful nights naturally?

Understanding Insomnia: Root Causes

Insomnia stems from various factors, including:

  1. Stress and Anxiety: Racing thoughts and heightened stress levels disrupt the body’s ability to relax.
  2. Poor Sleep Hygiene: Irregular sleep schedules, excessive screen time, or consuming stimulants close to bedtime can interfere with restful sleep.
  3. Medical Conditions: Chronic pain, hormonal imbalances, or mental health disorders often contribute to sleep issues.
  4. Lifestyle Choices: Lack of physical activity and unhealthy eating habits may exacerbate insomnia.

Practices to Overcome Insomnia

To combat insomnia, consider incorporating these strategies into your routine:

  • Establish a Sleep Schedule: Go to bed and wake up at the same time daily to regulate your body’s internal clock.
  • Create a Calming Pre-Sleep Routine: Engage in relaxing activities like reading, meditation, or listening to soft music.
  • Optimize Your Sleep Environment: Keep your bedroom dark, quiet, and cool.
  • Limit Screen Time: Avoid screens at least an hour before bed to reduce blue light exposure.
  • Embrace Natural Remedies: Practices like yoga, mindfulness, and mudras can significantly improve sleep quality.

The Power of Shoonya Vayu Mudra for Insomnia

Mudras, the ancient art of hand gestures, channel energy within the body and can promote mental and physical well-being. Shoonya Vayu Mudra is particularly effective in calming the mind and enhancing sleep quality.

How to Practice Shoonya Vayu Mudra:

  1. 🖐️ Position: Gently press the tips of your index finger and middle finger against the base of your thumb while keeping the other fingers extended in both hands.
  2. 🌬️ Breathing: Practice deep, slow breaths for 10 minutes while holding this mudra.
  3. 📅 Timing: Incorporate it into your nightly routine, ensuring not to practice it within 30 minutes after a meal.
  4. 🚫 Note: Avoid practicing the mudra within 30 minutes of eating.

Consistent practice can help you achieve deep relaxation and combat insomnia naturally.

Anchor Your Night with Gratitude

Before slipping into sleep, reflect on your day with gratitude. A simple Gratitude Prayer can help you release tension and foster a peaceful mindset:

“Thank you for this day—its joys, lessons, and even challenges. I am grateful for all I have received and continue to receive. Whether my experiences were good, bad, or worse, I embrace them as part of my journey. Good days are blessings; bad days are teachers. As I rest tonight, may my heart be filled with gratitude and my sleep be rejuvenated. Tomorrow, I will rise with renewed energy and grace.”

Practicing gratitude not only shifts your focus from stress to positivity but also enhances overall well-being. Research shows that gratitude can improve sleep by reducing intrusive thoughts and fostering calmness​.

Remember, every small step toward self-care is an investment in your long-term happiness and health. Begin tonight by calming your mind and embracing gratitude.

Your Journey to Restful Nights

Consistent practice of mudras, paired with intentional gratitude, can transform your nights and revitalize your days. Start your wellness journey today!

When Dreams Don’t Match Timing: Embrace Growth and Meaning

✨ Sometimes certain dreams do come true; it’s just that the timing feels incorrect to the extent that it feels meaningless. ✨

This thought resonates deeply with many of us. We’ve all had dreams that once held immense significance, yet when they finally came to pass, they felt disconnected or even disappointing. Why? Because sometimes, our spirit isn’t yet ready to receive what we once longed for.

Embracing the Right Timing

“Timing isn’t just about the moment; it’s about the readiness of our spirit to hold what we once dreamed of.” — Priyanka Murarka 🌱

I’ve experienced this firsthand. There were times when I found myself achieving things I once desired, yet feeling completely unprepared. To ground myself, I turned to mudra therapy—a practice that has become an anchor in my life.

🌿 Gyan Mudra for Peace

Simply touch the tip of your index finger to your thumb while breathing deeply. This mudra calms the mind, helping to reduce restlessness and foster a sense of acceptance.

Below are a few reflections on navigating the complex interplay between dreams, timing, and the journey we’re on.

⏳ Learning from Delayed Gratification

When dreams come true at unexpected times, they remind us that life is about growth and patience. Sometimes, it takes experiencing a “wrong-timed” achievement to fully appreciate what still needs to be learned or developed.

🚀 Finding Value in the Journey

Each step toward a dream, even when the timing feels off, has value. The journey shapes us, transforming who we are. It’s a reminder that the process can be just as meaningful as the destination, if not more so.

🔄 Reassessing Dreams Over Time

With growth, our aspirations often shift. When a dream starts feeling less relevant, it’s a cue to re-evaluate. Ask yourself: does it still align with my values? Realigning dreams with who we are now allows us to continue on a path that feels authentic.

🌈 Embracing the Bigger Picture

The unpredictability of life means that dreams coming true—whenever they do—might lead to opportunities and challenges we never anticipated. Instead of resisting this, we can embrace the flow, allowing new paths to unfold naturally.

🤝 The Strength in Community Support

Sharing our experiences connects us with others facing similar doubts. Through community, we can offer guidance, support, and comfort, reminding each other that none of us are alone on this journey.

🧘 Mindfulness and Acceptance

Practicing mindfulness helps us ground ourselves in the present. Achieving a dream may look different from our original vision, but that doesn’t lessen its value. Acceptance is about finding peace with where we are now, even if it’s not exactly what we envisioned.

🌬️ Emotional Release: A Necessary Part of Growth

It’s okay to release emotions—whether through writing, talking to a friend, or simply having a good cry. Letting go of these feelings can help clear the mind and make space for a renewed perspective.

Pause, breathe, and allow yourself to find peace, no matter where you are on your journey.

Final Thoughts: Embracing Life’s Timing and Finding Peace in Every Step 🌿

️As you reflect on your journey, remember that while timing may be beyond our control, our response is in our hands. Each “misplaced” dream teaches us patience, resilience, and the art of letting go. 🌱✨

Pause, breathe, and honor where you are. Sometimes, it’s in the stillness that we find the peace and purpose we’re seeking. 💫

Trust your path, and let each step guide you forward. 🌿💛

Quotes

From Fate to Destiny: Embrace Your Journey

“Fate is a misconception. It’s merely a cover-up for the fact that you don’t have control over your own life.” – Priyanka Murarka

For a long time, this belief shaped my outlook on life. It made me feel that life was happening to me, leaving me at the mercy of circumstances beyond my control. At that stage, I felt that “fate” was a way to explain the unpredictable events that came my way.

But as I’ve grown and reflected, my understanding has evolved. Today, my belief has shifted, and I now stand by a new mantra: “You create your destiny.” – Priyanka Murarka.

It’s a simple but powerful realization that life doesn’t just happen to us—we actively shape it. This shift from “fate” to “destiny” isn’t just a change in words; it’s a transformation in perspective. And I’ve realized I’m not alone in this journey. Many of us move through life, grappling with questions about our purpose, control, and growth. Here’s what I’ve learned through this evolution, and some ideas to support you wherever you are on your path.

1. Embracing Self-Belief Over Destiny

Our lives are filled with choices, big and small, that shape our path. Each decision, effort, and even setback is a line in the story we are writing. Rather than waiting for life to reveal itself, embracing the belief that you create your destiny allows you to step into a place of empowerment.

Self-belief is foundational here. Whether it’s a career change, a personal challenge, or an ambitious goal, knowing that you have the power to steer your path can be transformative. You’re not just a bystander—you’re the author.

2. Adaptability as a Strength

Life will present new challenges, shifts, and even unexpected events, but our ability to adapt can be our greatest strength. Staying open-minded and embracing the journey can turn what feels like obstacles into valuable lessons.

This adaptability is key to personal growth and professional success. Change is a constant for leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals at every stage. But our openness to learn and evolve sets us apart and drives us forward.

3. The Power of Reflection and Realignment

Every so often, we need to pause and reflect on where we are, where we’re headed, and whether our actions align with our core values. This reflection not only helps clarify our path but also reaffirms our purpose.

Realignment is a powerful tool for personal and professional development. As we grow, our goals, values, and desires may shift. Embracing these shifts helps us live with intention, constantly aligning our lives with who we are becoming.

From Fate to Destiny: Growth is a journey

My journey from believing in fate to creating my own destiny has been marked by moments of self-discovery, challenges, and a willingness to evolve. I believe this is a journey many of us share. We start with one perspective, but life has a way of teaching us that growth is a journey, not a destination. Wherever you are in your journey—just starting, navigating change, or seeking purpose—embrace the evolution. Stay open, trust in your ability to adapt, and remember: you are the author of your story.

What does creating your destiny look like to you? Feel free to share your journey in the comments. Let’s inspire and evolve together.

This journey of evolving beliefs isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it. We may begin with one perspective, but life teaches us that the greatest growth happens when we allow ourselves to change. Let’s embrace our power, our adaptability, and our evolving selves.

Whispers of the Divine: A Mother’s Love Across Realms

They say you embarked on a new journey to a heavenly abode, but to me, you have always transcended human form, even while you walked this earth. Your extraordinary ability to read my mind and see into my heart was a rare gift. Despite the generational divide, you understood me in ways that no one else ever could. It felt as though you lived in my soul, grasping every nuance and detail far beyond what those my age could ever comprehend.

Your prayers and boundless love—both maternal and divine—made the impossible possible. They shaped my very belief system, instilling in me a faith that continues to guide me today. When life overwhelmed me, simply placing my head beneath your veil wiped away my pain, allowing me to find solace in your presence. You were my refuge.

Like the nurturing arms of Mother Nature, you allowed me to thrive under your care. Even when I faltered or neglected my responsibilities, much like how we often take our planet for granted, you forgave me without hesitation. You continued to give, as only a mother could. I slept in your protection and awakened each day wrapped in the warmth of your love. Not a single moment passes without feeling your protective shield around me—in every breath I take and every stirring of my heart. The sheer ehsaas of you lingers in the air, reminding me of the goddess you always were.

Worshipping Ma Durga brings me back to you—the way your love, care, and blessings empowered me to face my inner demons. It was your nurturing spirit that helped me conquer my shortcomings, allowing me to focus on the strength you always recognized in me.

When I invoke Ma Laxmi, I remember the abundance you blessed me with—not just in material wealth, but in spiritual prosperity and self-knowledge, guiding me toward liberation. You opened my eyes to the riches within, treasures I carry with me every day.

And then there’s Ma Saraswati—she brings back the peace I felt in your presence, the serenity found in the safety of your veil. You awakened a power in me that I didn’t know I possessed, the limitless potential that fuels my journey.

Ma Saraswati also reminds me of that bittersweet moment when the world outside bid farewell to her idol while I was bidding farewell to you, as you left this realm during your cremation ceremony.

It wasn’t mere coincidence; life has no random acts. There was a deeper synchronicity at play, as if the universe mirrored my grief, reminding me that just like the goddess you were, you will always be a part of me.

“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched—they must be felt with the heart.” – Helen Keller

You are my eternal guide, my divine mother, and in every breath, I carry your essence with me, forever intertwined.

Rising Through Grief: My Mother’s Love

Mumma left this realm in January, and gradually, after her departure, I began to feel as if the entire universe conspired for my upliftment. Recently, I realized that she never truly left me; she has always been with me and around me, and she always will be. My mother’s love has been the driving force in my life, filled with eternal love and divinity. She has always been a living goddess in my eyes. My day begins and ends with her love and blessings; she is my universe.

I often wish to bring the whole world into action for my parents. No matter how much I sacrifice, I could never repay even a fraction of their unconditional love and dedication. Within a month of her departure from this realm, I:

  • Attempted the Happiness course by Ravi Shankar and started practicing Sudarshan Kriya, followed by Sahaj Samadhi.
  • Learned basic mudras and mudra meditation from Nisha Mam.
  • Received a new job opportunity and recently joined a workplace where I feel fulfilled with my colleagues.
  • Resumed keyboard and driving classes.
  • Began nurturing indoor plants.
  • Maintained regular meditation and physical activity.
  • Adopted healthy eating habits.
  • Overcame impatience, rigidity, and a short temper to a great extent. In extreme situations, I choose to serve with love instead of reacting negatively.

In the last four months, I have been drawn to books that impart immense courage and strength, providing direction in life and helping me live in the present while enjoying the joy of peace.

Do these changes sound normal? To say the least, “No,” they do not. That’s the power of a mother’s love and her divinity driving my life.

I do break down sometimes because, despite multiple practices, emotions overshadow me. I feel the pain as if every cell of my body, every atom of my existence, is in dire need of seeing her, being with her, and feeling her emotional touch. Instantly, I’m reminded that I burned her body with these hands. I can still recall the last glimpse of her feet, which is the key to eternity. It’s alright to break down sometimes and cry your heart out.

I am being watched all the time by her, and she imparts immense strength and courage. I am not a perfect human, nor do I aspire to be one. I aspire to be a great human and to make my parents proud of who I am. I wish to serve my parents and the Lord with love and grace—that’s my sole purpose and goal at the edge of life. Last but not least, all I can say is—I AM TRYING!
