Grief is one of the most universal yet deeply personal experiences we go through. It’s heavy, it’s messy, and it’s often something we don’t know how to face.
But what if we could sit with it, honor it, and even find healing through it? That’s exactly what we’re exploring today, as host Anitha Aswath takes us through Raag Miyan Ki Todi, a raga that has the power to hold space for our sorrow and guide us toward peace.
This episode is about how we can use art to process pain, how we can find strength in vulnerability, and how we can emerge from the depths of grief with a renewed sense of hope.
Let’s dive in.
We discuss
- Reflection on the nature of grief
- The origins of the raag
- Anitha’s personal experiences with grief
- Insights on grief from psychologists and research
- Anitha guides listeners through a gentle meditation to find stillness
