Missing these pieces of my heart. Come home soon.
Here’s a little hair appreciation post.
Thank you @bhavyaarora
It takes so many talented people behind the scenes to prepare a personality for public appearances these days, I feel it’s important to acknowledge everyone’s efforts and contribution to creating these glamorous images 🙏🏼 deep bows. I celebrate all of you Amritsar, Punjab
All the feels.
Loved the vibe on Kareena Kapoor’s Show #whatwomenwant season 2 on 104.8 ishq. I’ve always admired Bebo for her beauty and her choices and her ability to embody whatever role she chooses. And now I can share she’s an excellent interviewer – warm, empathetic, smart and engaged- and I guess I shouldn’t be surprised but it’s always meaningful for me to watch a strong, female role model step up and ace new challenges.

This image from 2010 perhaps captures my cancer journey ‘back to life’ best: back in the trenches a few months post my stem cell transplant, rocking my chemo cut in a faux fur vest and supporting an initiative that fights for girls rights around the world. Oh and slurping a healthy smoothie. I am a bundle of contradictions and cancer helped me embrace all my myriad facets. We don’t immediately understand in our darkest moments how they lead to setting down the baggage of many years and walking forward lighter and a more authentic (and bad ass) version of our selves 🙏🏼
Oh hello @rado my constant companion. (Casually displayed by non-accident) You didn’t think I’d leave home without you?! Styled by @aasthasharma @iammanisha @wardrobist

Thank you my @diamirzaofficial for nominating me, I am all for #GirlsGetEqualChallenge with @planindia because until girls are represented and take decisions that impact them, gender equality will not be achieved. I nominate some fierce women I’m proud to know : @mariagorettiz @farahkhanali @gulpanag ❤️

‘How fortunate a thing it is, when life alters you without warning’ is one of the last things I wrote for my book Close to the Bone, though it appears in the prologue. And it’s a mantra I return to again and again to convey the embodied awakening experienced through meditation and trauma, through love and betrayal and finally through the gift of embracing stillness and listening to what my body had to say in the midst of medical upheaval. I share what I’ve learned about healing and life through talks and public gatherings and my writing not because I am the keeper of greater knowledge than anyone else, or I’m somehow special or superior, but because I have been the recipient of so much goodness and guidance when I needed it; to tell me that I had all the resources I need to summit this mountain inside myself. ‘Pay it forward’ I was told time and time again when I asked how to repay the kindness. .

‘And prepare yourself for a miracle.’ .

We all have an ‘inner critic’ – that critical voice that we internalize from our younger years. The voice of a parent, a teacher, peers, society. The voice isn’t truly our own and when we learn to recognise it we can replace it with a voice of compassion 💛🌻

Three more books! I am so incredibly humbled and excited to share this announcement: thank you @HarperCollinsIN @diyakar73 @jilpanz and @jayapriya88 for supporting my story-telling journey and partnering with me.
ANNOUNCEMENT:
@HarperCollinsIN acquires the next three works of @Lisaraniray
The books will be published in succession, beginning with the non-fiction, a deeply personal narrative on healing, set to release in 2023. To know more, click on the link in bio.
I love this article by @rochelle.pinto that honours my many heads and hats and contradictions and crazy in a way that’s rare in the media today. It’s so much easier to limit personalities to a stereotype or single dimension. Of course in the interview itself I take my cue from the Queen of candidness and Lady Boss of @tweakindia @twinklerkhanna 😜
Check out @tweakindia for fresh, tell it like it is, everyday gyaan 🤟🏼

“You know, Jason is a classic romantic—the flowers, the intimate dinners and spontaneous beachside getaways—and yet when we met, I told him that I was done with the sugar rush, the adrenalised roller coaster of rose-tinted interactions that marks the beginning of a romance,” Ray explains. “I wanted to cut directly to real life. I wanted to bypass this and go straight to mornings of omelettes and bad breath and understanding what the everyday would be like together.”
Much like in bed, you have to take turns being the one on top. Dehni dutifully accompanies her on annual spiritual retreats, she reciprocates by engaging with the Savile Row suits and CEOs which she used to “loathe and run from.” Grand gestures of affection are pulled from the practical handbook on love only working moms will understand. “The most romantic thing Jason does for me is protect me from interruptions when I’m trying to write or to create. It’s not easy with kids, but my husband lobbies for my creative spaces and it means so much more than a surprise trip to the Maldives.”
On a signing spree in Delhi for my talk with @thrive_india

How fortunate it is when life alters you without a warning –
Sharing a few images from this empowering session on transforming personal challenges into fuel to thrive. I spoke about my book #ClosetotheBone and my top 5 takeaways from my cancer experience, as well as how meditation has played an essential role in my life. Thanks to the audience for their enthusiasm and deep listening. And thanks to @marcusranney and @thrive_india for sewing it all together

Repost @healinghideaway_bindiyamurgai :
Who came up with the concept of constant ascension? The idea that we need to keep climbing invisible ladders, professionally, socially, even spiritually? Banish the ladders, banish the ascension. Not every playing field is about getting higher. Sometimes being expansive, being happy, even being still, is more important than rungs, climbs and vertically motivated ambitions.
