What's Stopping You?

One of the first steps towards understanding Mental Health is realising that it is as important as every other illness. Treat it as important, reach out - to help others, as well as to ask for help from others.

Everyone Needs Mental Help

Self isolation is not easy and can drive you to the point of insanity. So how do you keep your mind from playing tricks on you while not tiring yourself out?

How To Stay Sane While Isolating

Staying isolated is the safest thing to do for you and your loved ones, But, just because we've locked ourselves in, doesn't mean we need to lock the world out.

How To Come Together Alone

To all those who are turning 30, celebrate! Not because you're turning older but because your age deserves to be celebrated just like you. We've been conditioned to believe that somehow by the time we're 30, we should be married with kids. But, marriage and children are not the benchmarks of being happy nor wise. Age has nothing to do with finding happiness or discovering ourselves. So don't let 'social' constructs of age determine your happiness. Go cut that cake, eat it and celebrate your age!

Celebrate Your Age

Most people are afraid of being alone because they're afraid of discovering who they are when no one is around. But, once you learn to be alone, you learn to love yourself just the way you are. Being alone is being your best friend. To be alone is to be free. And it's about time we learned to live freely.

Being Alone Is Powerful

Yet another New Year. Just going to be as shitty as the last year, and the one before, right? But, what if you've been looking at it the wrong way? What if this year could be good for you? Just like the last year was, and the one before it was? It's a matter of perspective, really. Just, hear me out.

New Year 2020 - Embrace The Change

Life is hard. And it has a way of getting to you. But, even though you may not want to wake up in the morning, or jump over the edge, don't give up just yet. You have something worth holding on to. Remember, the only way out of the darkness is through bit.

Don't Give Up

We were taught that silence is golden. But today, silence isn't golden. It means you didn't take a stand. Silence means you let someone get away with inflicting pain on someone else. Stop being silent and stand for something that goes beyond your pride, ego, religion, caste and class. Stand for something and/or someone and I promise you won't stand alone.

Stand For Something

Your faith can help you manifest your own reality. It could save you, and if it's strong enough, it could save someone else. The stronger your faith, the better the outcome. And while it's easy to keep the faith when things are going well. But, your real test is how you keep your faith when you're playing against the odds. So, do you have faith?

Your Faith Is A Force

Ever wondered why you say you're okay even when you're not okay? It's because we're conditioned to do so. Learn to use the three magic words, 'I'm Not Okay' because sometimes, others need to know that you're not feeling fine.

Saying You're Not OK Is OK

Thanks to social media and Influencer culture, we think self care is about face masks and mani-pedis. But, real self care is brutal. And nobody has to get it, except you. Don't compare your self care with the one you see in magazines and posts. That's a product being sold to you. Real self care is like a system shut down and reset. Learn the difference.

Real Self Care Isn't Pretty

Nothing is ever too smal to be insignificant. Even the Earth may be just a tiny blue dot in this expansive Universe. But, look at the amount of life on this tiny little planet. Next time you're about to dismiss something as unimportant, remember that even a butterfly can change the world.
