Overcoming Cultural Barriers & Self Acceptance

Описание: Growing up in traditional eastern setting in the western world wasn’t always easy. Some of the values from these two different way of lifestyles clashed and I found myself trying to fit in and please both. Many times we identify ourselves from places we were born and brought up and lot of us inherit our identity through cultural and society conditioning. I don’t believe there is any wrong or right way of living that is up the individuals what feels best - however I knew some of the traditions did not feel right for me.

It took a while before I plucked up the courage to step away from society and cultural expectations to discover more about my own values and things that mattered to me without external influence. I'm aware that not everybody around the world may get a chance to choose their own lifestyle decisions and I am forever grateful to live in a place where I have the freedom to choose the way I want to live my life. I’ve learnt that it is through radical self acceptance and self love we find true freedom.

In this video I am getting ready for my friends wedding. I put henna designs on my hands, make some delicious brownies made from dates and also a lot of dancing whilst getting ready! I do hope you enjoy - let me know your thoughts.

With love,
