Alveena | Reflections & Realizations
Reflections & Realizations isn’t just a podcast — it’s a series of introspective conversations I have with myself, and you’re invited to be part of the journey.
I’m Alveena — a Psychology MSc student, writer, and seeker blending mental health, psychology, and Islamic spirituality to unpack life’s challenges and growth.
This podcast was born from years of journaling, therapy, and faith, combining:
🖊️ Unfiltered personal stories and reflections
📚 Psychology insights and research
🤍 Spiritual lessons rooted in Islam
If you’re craving honest, personal conversations about mental health, faith, healing, and self-discovery — this is your space.
No quick fixes. No polished answers. Just me, questioning, processing, and sharing — so you don’t have to feel alone in your own reflections.
Together, we’ll explore:
- Mental health struggles and resilience
- The intersection of faith and psychology
- Healing through self-awareness
- Growth that feels real and personal
Join the conversation. Let’s reflect, realize, and heal — one episode at a time.

The Voice in Your Head Is Not You
You ever had someone’s words cling to you for years — until you started saying it to yourself?
This week, I revisit a moment I thought I’d buried:
Me. Frozen. 11 years old.
Hearing the words that would echo for decades: “You’re useless.”
This episode is for anyone who’s carried childhood wounds into adulthood. If you’ve ever battled the voice in your head — the one that sounds suspiciously like someone from your past — this one's for you.
Welcome to Reflections & Realizations — a podcast where we blend faith, psychology, and personal healing to realign how we think, feel, and live.
🛠️ Realignment Tool #3: The Inner Child Compass
A 3-step guide to healing your inner child and breaking free from inherited beliefs that don’t serve you.
✨ Acknowledge
Tune in to that inner voice. Ask:
Is this how I truly feel — or is this an echo of the past?
Awareness is the first act of freedom.
✨ Reframe
Speak truth over the lies.
When your mind says: “I’m so stupid,” say:
“I’m intelligent. I wrote a 2000-word essay and submitted it on time.”
When you hear “You’re useless,” answer back:
“No. I have worth. I was created with purpose by the One who makes no mistakes.”
✨ Heal
End your day with affirmations rooted in Allah’s Names:
– Al-Jameel (The Beautiful): He made you beautiful inside and out
– Al-Aleem (The All-Knowing): He gave you insight and understanding
– Al-Khaliq (The Creator): He fashioned you in the best of forms
Healing doesn’t mean forgetting what happened. It means reclaiming the story you tell yourself — one rooted in truth, kindness, and divine purpose.
