How Tea Can Improve Your Mental Health
Eastern countries devised some beautiful rituals around tea. These were about more than just drinking tea. They were about bonding, mental health and emotional well-being. The Japanese made it an art form…a carefully crafted practice of mindfulness, best summed up in the Zen phrase "ichi-go ichi-e", which means "one time, one meeting". The phrase encapsulates the beauty, uniqueness and impermanence of the present moment. According to researchers at Yale, holding a warm cup of

Different Colors Describe Happiness vs. Depression
This is a way of measuring anxiety and depression which gets away from the use of language. This might actually be a better way of capturing a patient's mood than questions, especially when gauging the moods of children, and other patients who have trouble communicating verbally.

Shed wilted relationships. Make way for meaningful ones.
Many relationships are transient in our lives. They have a shelf life, there for a certain time, but always with a purpose, even though we may not see it without ample introspection. The purpose could be to bring us momentary joy, shine a light on our emotional chasms, hold a mirror to our hidden selves, highlight our frailties, our strengths. Or hard as it may be, to just teach us a lesson about people, life, instincts, and the myriad complexities of the human heart and mind

Be like a tree, forever evolving.
Be like a tree, forever evolving. Growing, weathering storms, breaking, healing, aging uniquely, gaining strength from stillness, staying grounded, silently gaining wisdom, and becoming immensely individuated. Become your own unique self, find comfort in your own niche, where you are needed and meant to be. It is a part of the Ascension process. #ancientwisdom #healinghideaway #ascension #spirituality #spiritualgrowth#spiritualretreats #top10spiritualretreats #india #bindiyam

When your mind becomes your lethal enemy
Another life lost to depression, as Hyderabad TV anchor, Radhika Reddy commits suicide, leaving behind a note that read, “My brain is my enemy.” As with many depressed people, she managed to put on a brave, even happy face at work. Nobody knew the dark, uphill battle she was fighting, wrecked not by an outsider, but her own mind. Depression is not something we can wish away. It’s as real, and often more painful than a broken leg. And it’s a lonely journey, as it’s silent and

Gender roles are no longer well defined in most modern societies, and that changes the way family units operate, interact and negotiate the course of their relationships. Often people are caught in a trap of deeply

Simple Mindfulness Exercise to Control Negative Thoughts
We live in a Thought Universe. Thoughts make things. They determine how we create our reality and how we experience life. That’s why ten people can have the identical experience, let's say they all attend the same party, and each one can have very different things to say about it.
