Nilu explores how the yogic concepts of raga (attachment) and dvesha (aversion) illuminate tensions around returning to the office after the pandemic. She contrasts employees’ attachment to remote routines with managers’ attachment to in-person norms and shows how each side’s preference becomes the other’s resistance.

Using a real-life scenario and concrete examples—commute, visibility, noise, and control—this episode highlights how the push-and-pull between raga and dvesha creates stress for both managers and employees and sets the stage for upcoming discussions on managing that stress.

Ever wonder what it really means to feel your thoughts — instead of just observing them? In this episode, Nilu dives into the profound practice drawn from the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra, exploring why the mind resists observation and how sensing thoughts through feelings can change the way you relate to your inner world.

You’ll learn the subject–object–process model, discover the difference between passive observation and direct feeling, and experience a 7-day practical challenge designed to train your awareness — 100 feelings in 7 days, with daily goals and a simple log to guide you.

Join Nilu on this journey to transform your inner experience, notice your sensations more vividly, and move closer to true mindfulness. Reflect, practice, and tune in next week for the next step.
