    GAINING INDEPENDENCE FROM 'LOG KYA KAHENGE'

    We have gained independence from the shackles of the British, but what about gaining independence from the shackles of ‘Log Kya Kahenge’ ('What will People Say?') that prevents us from becoming the real version of ourselves? What about the independence that prevents us from blooming into what we always wanted to be? How many times have we done or not done something, thinking - “Log Kya Kahenge?” (“What will people say?”) And when things didn’t turn out to be the way you wante

    HOW MY FOUR LEGGED HAPPINESS ENHANCED MY MENTAL HEALTH

    I was wondering how I’m going to start this piece and this small anecdote that happened a few days ago came to mind. A small disclaimer before I start, Arthur (My 18 Months Old Labrador) is much more to me than just a pet and at certain times in this article, I will refer to him as “My Boy” or any other cliched nickname but that’s the thing - to me, he was never a dog or a puppy. He is my baby who changed my life. A few days ago, I was deeply disturbed by everything happening

    SETTING HEALTHY BOUNDARIES

    “Boundaries are your responsibility. You decide what is and isn’t allowed in your life.” -Brittney Moses Have you ever gotten hurt by someone close to you when they intentionally did something you did not want them to do? Did you feel that you weren’t important enough for them to respect your likes and dislikes? Do you often feel the need to take a step back from a conversation but the thought that you may hurt another person’s feelings, stopped you from doing that? If this h

    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

    HEALTHY EATING FOR A HEALTHY MIND

    What you eat affects your mood. What you eat affects your performance. What you eat affects your behavior & perception. What you eat affects your overall cognitive function. Balanced nutrition plays an important role in our mode of thinking and behavior, as the intake of foods affects our cognition, memory capacity, and emotions. Researches have proved that the food we eat affects the chemical composition of our brain, thus changing our mood. Dietary nutrition, as the primary

    LISTEN IN & BE THERE

    I’m writing this article to share a small experience, more like something that happened a few days ago and the reason I’m sharing it is because I genuinely feel that it can inspire and influence people to think differently, to make the most out of any situation, to be more aware of other people and how they’re feeling and just to stay present. As a budding Psychologist, I was thinking of how I could utilize my time during a pandemic, I thought to myself “so many people must b

    AN EPIDEMIC THAT HAS TO END - STIGMA SURROUNDING MEN’S MENTAL HEALTH

    Stigma Surrounding “Men don’t cry!”, ”You have a family to take care of!”, “Man up!”, are a few of the things the society tells men. From the beginning, men are told that showing emotions is weak, that being vulnerable is not a quality a man should have because that makes him ‘unmanly’. The society itself teaches them to bottle up and suppress their emotions to a point where they lose contact with them. What we don’t realize is that shunning the temporary emotion at that time

    beYOUtiful: HARMONIZING YOUR SELF ESTEEM & MENTAL HEALTH

    Twelve. Age twelve was the first time that I was bullied for the color of my skin. I clearly remember running back home from the bus stop evening after evening and crying to my mother until all of the energy was drained out of my body. Even though I do not have many memories of my middle and high school years anymore, the ones that I do never tug at my happy heartstrings. Instead, they bring back daunting memories of the racial trauma that I constantly faced back then. That’s

    FOOD & MOOD: LINKING NUTRITION WITH MENTAL HEALTH

    The human mind is the strongest weapon you can ever possess as well as the most fragile one. As paradoxical as it may seem, there’s no denying the fact that it is the most complex and intricate thing in existence. So it is but natural that this super-engine requires constant and superior quality nourishment. And that nourishment can be derived from the food we eat. Studies are being conducted since the past decade to understand the relation between food and mental health and

    DEMYSTIFYING THERAPY: DIALECTICAL BEHAVIOURAL THERAPY

    I have been devoting all my time towards studying different aspects of Psychology including the different forms of therapies that are now used to treat clients struggling with any form of mental illness. We all are aware of the most common form of therapy known as cognitive behavioural therapy which is solely focused on restructuring the client’s negative thought patterns to make them feel less depressed and more positive. CBT is used to treat almost every disorder or illness

    MY FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE WITH THERAPY

    I started counseling in school in the 9th grade and after 10th, I shifted to therapy. It has been 3 years now since I started to go for therapy. Therapy has made me grow as a person. It has made me come face to face with so many things that I subconsciously avoided or ran away from. It has given me a safe space and a safe person to talk to. My emotions are being released and a lot of toxicity has been released, too! When in therapy, my opinions are valued, my thoughts are gai

    NURTURE YOUR MENTAL HEALTH

    Mental health in India is still surrounded with stigma and lack of awareness along with limited access to professional help which does little to dispel or end the same. It led me to think around the idea of how the need of the hour was to sensitize and educate individuals globally about the signs and symptoms while normalizing the idea of seeking support for themselves and their loved ones – this led me to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology. Back in the 1960s, there was

    A STEP TOWARDS BETTER MENTAL WELL-BEING

    "Force yourself to come to college and sit in class, attend lectures and take deep breaths." Said my psychology teacher in college when I told her that I was suffering from mental health concerns. I needed rest because I had been a fighter of depression and other mental health illnesses for the past 2 years, back then. I explained to her how difficult it was for me to even get up from my bed and take a bath, how my panic and anxiety attacks had increased in both number and in

Even things at home aren’t that great, my parents have such high expectations of me, I just can’t deal with everything anymore.” Friend: “I’m really sorry, I’m in the middle of something, can I call you b

    6 REASONS TO SEEK E-THERAPY DURING SOCIAL DISTANCING

    The Coronavirus pandemic has made it essential for all of us to stay quarantined and take necessary precautions such as social distancing. Social distancing has deprived us of ‘in-person’ interactions from our close ones, too. In difficult times like these, it is normal for us to feel fearful, isolated, panicky, disturbed and overwhelmed. Social distancing, if not handled carefully, can blow-back on us as social isolation. These feelings, if not dealt with, can force us to go

    UNDERSTANDING STRESS & ITS EFFECTS

    Stiff backs, aching heads, drooping energy levels, ‘down’ feelings and feeling out of focus. These states majorly describe how a lot of us would feel at the end of a typical day, whether in college, office or even at home. Why does this happen? The answer is the 6-letter word that we’ve been using for the past many years- STRESS! Fight or Flight Response A stressful situation can trigger a host of events. You can even think of these as chain reactions. When stressed, your bod

    Poor mental health can take any form, ranging from the inability to manage stress, overthinking, excessive worry to more serious conditions like depression, schizophrenia or others. Taking care of our mental health as much as we would, of our body’s physical health, is of prime importance. Everything that we do in our day-to-day lives is inextricably linked with several cognitive and behavioural processes. Emotional and mental health is important because it directly impacts o
