SUMMER SOLSTICE
Volume 3: rooted
2022 is about being grounded - understanding our roots and keeping true to our authentic selves. A lot of us are creatures of habit, therefore deciphering where our fundamental beliefs come from is imperative to growth as we can make alterations based on what we truly want. Questioning “what is happiness”, contentment, and creation for you can bring you & your life clarity.

summer solstice 2022
The Indian Standard presents Volume 3 Issue 1 with Summer Solstice: a publication surrounding the concept of choice & how we have autonomy over our thoughts, feelings and emotions. This issue explores spirituality in a tangible form in hopes to inspire young adults to create the reality that they choose, one in which we can all feel free, vocal, expressive, empathetic and peace oriented. The sentiment that you have a choice in this instance to modify your thoughts and feelings rings throughout this piece. The pathway to peace is perhaps only as complicated as we believe it is - the hoops we perceive we have to jump are constructs of our mind; we can tell ourselves that we are farther from our goal based on how we view success and our own fortitude. This issue features the spiritual counselor, Natija Cave along with Redefining ABCD’s Sneha Ameya & Keerthi Sekar, Ashley R. Singh, Upal Patel, AAVRANI’s Rooshy Roy, & Zenab Kashif. Together, we explore how our choices led us to where we are today and how we can move forward as a community.
