Gloom & Bloom by Mansi Dodia | Book review

Book review:

 “Gloom and Bloom” is a strong, close-to-home journey that embraces despondency and trust. It demonstrates the way that great verse can convey or assist in managing complex sentiments. Dodia's sections convey her involvement in misery in its rawest structure.

Each sonnet addresses a gunny pack of blood blended with affection. They range across numerous subjects like love, life, and so on. In this book, wonderful and solid minutes have been conveyed effectively by the author.

This book is a treasury of aggregate feelings of us people that we feel and reflect all through our reality. The feelings that propel us to think about the existence we are being honoured with or constrained on to us are suitably inked in those pages. Mansi, with her expressive capacities, has placed those feelings in an exceptionally crude yet smart stanza that has made us readers wonderment.

A few sonnets that piqued me:
🌸"Am I right?
      No.
      Am I wrong?
      No.
      Then what am I?
      You are you.
      It's more than a lot of people are."
Very true for all. Most of the time we are pondering on the fact Am I right? We need others to acknowledge our deeds and identity.

🌸"People are often trying to wind and
       unwind things to make more sense.
       But winding and unwinding spillover
       In the end,
       Making no sense."
People are trying to wind and unwind things as per their convenience but end over making no sense. Such things lead the person to nowhere. 

🌸 "Why am I fascinated by
        Turns of roads
         I don't know;
         by
         Stairs that seem to
         Lead nowhere;
         By
        Doors left ajar?
Life is full of twists and turns and each person gets fascinated by turns of roads. Sometimes there seem to be stairs but they lead nowhere. Doors leave us still searching for our answers.

This arrangement of books stands apart because they can sparkle during dull days due to their straightforward yet suggestive lines, and the "Agony and Sprout" title says everything, demonstrating that one can prosper all of a sudden, regardless of what sort of hopelessness there may be.

Mansi Dodia's composing design is extremely moving and thought-engendered. It utilizes normal yet strong jargon that catches confounded feelings effortlessly in this way, making her sonnets comprehendible and engaging. A blend of dejection and energy is reflected in the tone of this book.

Highly recommended!

Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness by Deekay

 Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness for Combating Overthinking, Achieving Stress Relief, and Attaining Absolute Peace  Deekay | Book Review What is turbulence? Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...
