Not every moment of every day is perfect, peaceful or extraordinary. But we can carve out tiny boxes of time that are quiet, and only ours. Thirty minutes spent mindfully on something simple that we enjoy, be it a book, some music, gentle deep breathing, meditation, the perfect cuppa, or just staring into space is enough to create a positive change in our mental and emotional wellbeing, and the sheer quality of our lives. Try it for just 10 days and see the difference it make

Teaching has become an extremely high-stress profession, especially over the past 15 years. There is ample research that proves that teacher stress, anxiety, burnout, and job dissatisfaction are at an all-time high, thanks to various factors like increased pressure, unreasonable demands from parents and the system, technology and the new student-teacher-parent dynamics. All this makes the much-neglected facet of mental fitness for teachers, an issue of critical importance, on

Images of the snow peaked upper Himalayas are magnificent, awe inspiring and incredibly romantic. But the reality of living thousands of feet above sea level is anything but romantic. Temperatures are way below freezing (upto minus thirty degrees), air is thin, with the barest levels of oxygen, water is frozen, food is scant, healthcare is rudimentary and sparse, and every breath is a blessing. The reality is icy and harsh. High altitude pharyngitis/bronchitis, snow blindness

The more often we see the things around us - even the beautiful and wonderful things, the more they become invisible to us. That's why we often take for granted the beauty of this world : the flowers, the birds, the clouds, even those we love.

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".
