Dear Mind #2,
We recently asked people to write a letter to their mental health, and here’s what they wrote! #Part2 Hi Self, I want myself to feel fresh and energetic throughout my life without any outside judgment. For that, I try to keep myself away from toxic people and the people who pass remarks on me. Those remarks probably sometimes teach me and motivate me to grow further and nurture myself. They increase my potential and rectify my errors if any. But if the remarks are toxic then

Dear Mind #1,
We recently asked people to write a letter to their mental health, and here’s what they wrote! #Part1 Dear little mind, I know we've had major indifferences in the past. I know I've blamed you for most of the things in my life. I know I've hated you for hating my body. I know I've given you a hard time for giving me a hard time. But we've grown up. Won't you agree? We have learned to embrace ourselves and accept that sometimes we have difficulties and (most of the time) I've

UNDERSTANDING ART THERAPY
Art therapy involves the use of creative techniques such as drawing, painting, collage, coloring, or sculpting to help people express artistically and examine the psychological and emotional undertones signified in their art. With the guidance of a credentialed art therapist, clients can "decode" various non-verbal messages, symbols, and metaphors often found in these art forms, which leads to a better understanding of their feelings and behavior so they can move on to unders

WHAT DEPRESSION FEELS LIKE - SEEKING HELP
*Trigger Warning - Depression* Depression. A word used by many and understood only by a few. Most people think that it means a feeling of sorrow and intense grief. Many take it to mean someone’s weakness. Nobody ever takes it to mean what it actually does mean. Many say, "Believe in yourself and everything will be fine". Some say, "Stop being a wimp", and others say," You are just trying to gain attention". But what most people never say is, “I think professional help can ben

DON’T DESTROY YOURSELF
They say that someone comes along when you feel broken. They fix you. They make you look forward to life again. And then you give them the name of life. You start looking forward to them. You start creating your own little world around them and you start visualizing what life would look like with them by your side. At that moment, nothing seems more beautiful than that thought and then, when you truly get to live it, you fear losing it. This fear. This fear exists because the

IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING HELP: DEALING WITH AUTISM
Throughout our old lives, we were conditioned to ‘just get on with it‘, whether it was a sore throat or if you simply didn't feel you could face that Monday slog to work/school (in my case). Enter 2020. The year of hand sanitizer, furlough, and face masks. All our lives have changed. That mild cough has now forced you into isolation, and going back to work or school for many became impossible. For the first time in decades, the world felt what it was like to not be able to g

LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE- EXPLAINING COLOR PSYCHOLOGY
“Colour is a power which directly influences your soul” - Wassily Kandinsky So, what is color psychology? Color psychology is a study that looks at how colors can influence the perception of human behavior, through one's moods, emotions, feelings, and sensations. When light strikes the human eye, the wavelengths do so in different ways, influencing our perceptions.*** A certain area of the brain – the hypothalamus (which controls hormones and the network of glands and organs

GROW THROUGH IT, DON’T GRIND THROUGH IT
Waking up in the morning, finding a reason to carry on with the whole day, planning it and you are ready to rock it...That’s the dream we would all like to wake up to, won’t we? Imagine the contrary, doesn’t seem so appealing right? And yet, more than half of the student population wake up to that contrary scenario. There are more ways than you can imagine that can affect your self-esteem as a student. Starting from being compared to being forced to do something that’s not of

ARE YOU WILLING TO SHAKE YOUR COMFORT ZONE?
I always expressed my view about life as something which is astoundingly conflicted. I can’t imagine a single day without any hustle, in fact just pushing myself out of bed early in the morning is itself a big struggle by sensing the exhausting day ahead of me. In such a conflicted life, we always get to hear that there is ‘no gain without pain’. It, surely, rhymes perfectly, but it also brings to light the reality. Each of us has gained so much and is yet to gain so much mor

WHY ARE WE SCARED TO BE HAPPY?
Since the day we were born, our lives have always been a struggle. Infants struggle as they can’t speak, kids struggle in school age, adults struggle to establish a life, old people struggle with finding calmness. This struggle is neither going to end nor will it be the same every day. People say we all get a life to live, but they also complain that their hustles and duties don’t allow them to. When will they understand that hustles are not the definition of life, but they a

DO WE KNOW OURSELVES ENOUGH?
I have always believed that no human being is perfect! Having imperfections or flaws is what makes us human. Feeling the beauty of perfection is great, but embracing flaws is so much worth it, too! Unfortunately, we choose to ignore worthy facts. We are in such an ultra-modern life, that only beauty, perfection, brilliance, and triumph is paid attention to. Such a shame! But gladly, they never ever last long! Wherever we go, we have to compare ourselves with others. We compar

WHAT’S YOUR QUARANTINE GOAL?
QUARANTINE……I bet a couple of months back, the majority of us never knew that such a word exists in the dictionary. Undoubtedly, this word is leaving an extreme benchmark in the world of words! Quarantine was like an unwelcomed guest in our lives but in the true sense, it was the guest we needed! Am I sounding crazy? Maybe or maybe not! Until this year, all of us were true evidence of the rapidly moving and fast-paced living, where people have so much on their plate that they

A FAIRY-TALE IN PROGRESS
“You are starting your college life, isn’t that exciting?!” they said. “No more uniforms. Only freedom and enjoyment”, they told me. “It’s going to be the best time of your life, you’ll see”, they promised. And yet, my welcome-to-college-life gift was months of panic attacks. My day would start at 5 in the morning. The first event of the day would be fighting the growing dread in the pit of my stomach. Eventually, I would lose the fight and break down. I would miss my usual t

WHY ARE WE STRUGGLING?
Is there anyone for whom life is easy ? I know, I am sounding crazy to even bother asking such a question whose answer is pretty evident. Such an oblivious mind! Thinking about it, I imagine how it will be if we get a simple and easy life. No hustle, no competition, no stress, no hurt, no feelings, …nothing! Just pure, simple life! I guess this idea is better just fictionally. Can anyone picture themselves, having the same routine each day, without any challenges, without any

HOPE IS LIKE DOMINOS
Tell me if there is anyone who doesn’t face any struggles and hustles to live their day? Who doesn’t need to strive to achieve something they desire? Surprisingly in the crowd of millions, there is not a single who is living a life without struggle. No matter what you desire, no matter what you aim, no matter what age group you fall in, each day you will struggle to achieve something! Only when you go through your struggling phase you realise you require so many factors to mo

TURNING TOXIC IN A RELATIONSHIP
Relationships, the word itself causes either an adrenaline rush or is the pivotal reason behind such severe tension in the body which gets exhibited in the form of worries, stress, sleep disturbances and mood-related problems. Romantic relationships serve as the mirror to our souls, our unconscious desires, our needs and also help us to delve into our beauty and insecurities. From the moment we were born on earth, we channelize our identities in the form of how we are treated
