Balance Chakras for Unblocking the Mind! w/ Gabrielle Alscher

Food directly affects our second brain or simply put, our gut as it is commonly known. Our stomach is usually the first to experience reactions from our emotions their consistency. What we eat is ultimately how we feel about ourselves and the world around us. One of the cornerstones needed to maintain the balance of Serotonin and Dopamine, two of our "feel-good hormones", the hormones which amplify and spark the feeling of happiness and contentment, is the well-being of our gut. Manisha Bhagat gives us some much needed food for thought!

Thinking from the gut - What you eat is how you feel!

The concept of the inner child was first proposed by psychologist Carl Jung when he became aware of his own childlike inner-feelings and emotions. Jung theorized that it was this part in all of us that influenced all that we do and all the decisions that we make. The denied, frustrated & unmet needs of that  inner child - for love, acceptance, protection, nurturance, understanding - remain the same even when we grow into adults. Connecting with it, acknowledging it, listening to that inner child, and integrating it into one's conscious awareness through repeated dialogue and reconciliation is what inner child therapy involves. Today we explore this vast topic with Suzy Singh, Emotional Well-being & Mental Health Coach, Advisor to NGO - We Listen Foundation and Author. She will take us through the journey of the benefits of inner child therapy and its necessity at times. The inner child is our pure self, innocent and playful. There can be certain impressions on our inner child which need to be healed if we went through any trauma as children

Teenage suicides in India have risen by 500% in the last decade!  School pressure, aspirations thrusted by parents, early exposure to social media, fear of missing out are all contributing factors to the fading spirit of our teens. Sometimes the pressure we take on ourselves emotionally, it gets to us. India has a rich culture and at the same time we are also exposed to globalization, which brings us to a time where everybody wants to prove themselves. The very pressure of a global rat race to success is rapidly proving to be lethal for many of our teenage minds.  What are the different ways parents can help their children in order to not lose themselves? How should we reconnect with our children to boost their self esteem and help them realize the larger goal of being content with what they have?  Episode 2 of 'Chal Let's Go For A Walk' features Dr. Anisha Mahendrakar, an applied psychologist and counsellor specializing in teenage and young adult subjects where she tries to understand and then helps them mould their behaviour towards a successful and mature adulthood. 

Fading teen spirit - It's high time we take our children seriously!

Fear and anxiety is universal as long as we have a mind that controls us. Our mind is a beautiful thing but to some it could prove to be their worst nightmare. It's funny, weird and in fact unique that our mind uses itself to understand itself.. the people who realize that fact are sometimes able to see the larger picture and are able to come out of the deadly and dark downward spiral that our own mind puts us through. It could be our experiences during our childhood, our experiences at school, with our parents, our exposure to people who tend to be negative, condescending, bully by nature, slowly helps our mind construct walls around itself and we end up being fearful, vulnerable sometimes to even the most basic things like swimming in the pool or even walking out in the open.  Episode 1 of 'Chal Let's Go For A Walk' explores how Clinical Hypnotherapy helps one fight their way out of the downward spiral, featuring Kavi Bhandari, Wellness Journalist at BW Businessworld accompanied by Abhinav Trivedi, Managing Editor and Rachit Gupta Creative Director at BWTV.

Let's make friends with it, Let's go take a walk in it!
