In conversation with Sakshi Duggal Kumria, a numerologist, Vastu expert, colour therapist, and an astrologer who believes that to sail the boat of life, one needs to understand that ‘God is within us’.
Work and life balance
My work calls for peace of mind, positivity and calmness and that can only happen, when I know that everything is smooth and in place in life. So, the balance in my life is because of my supportive family (husband and son), who make sure that I am at ease and it’s a mutual bond that keeps us united and supportive towards each other.
Spirituality
It is about connecting to yourself. And the connection happens when you start believing yourself and your good karmas. All this together, combined with the faith in almighty is what shapes as spirituality. I don’t believe in visiting church, temple or mosque, rather I try to find peace within self and that is exquisite. It is necessary to understand that God is within you.
Energy and happiness
I am running an NGO called Lioness Club Anaya, it’s an NGO that works for the underprivileged kids in Gurgaon. The NGO is a part of the internationally acclaimed Lioness Club and the innocent kids are my source of energy and happiness. Spending time with them gives me all the happiness that I can ask for. Apart from that, meditation helps me a lot.
Crisis management
Life teaches you everything. I learned my crisis management skills when I lost my 4-month old daughter. The loss was huge, but I took charge of myself and had faith in my deeds and almighty. It was then I realized that everything is within us, all we need to do is to recognize the strengths and believe in inner self. The day we start believing in our inner self, there will be nothing called crisis or tension in life.
Success and failure
To understand the meaning of success one needs to dip down and taste the bitterness of failure. Also, it is important to understand that success and failure is within you and has nothing to do with the external world. Failure occurs when you are unable to meet your own expectations. It is all about introspection and growth.
Risk Taker
Everyday is a new day and we should make the best of it by exposing ourselves to challenges and hurdles. I have a big risk appetite and I believe that if you don’t take the risk, you will never be able to achieve your goals or milestones in life.
Distress mantra
As I said, I love spending time with NGO kids. Those innocent souls make me understand how beautiful life is and help me channelize my energies right. Also, travelling helps me revive and rejuvenate a lot. I avoid road travelling, so, whenever I am free and have a couple of days in my hands, you will find me in some flight.
Fitness file
For me, fitness involves a lot of walking. Apart from that I love exploring Zumba. It gives me a sort of happiness and inner strength as well.
