Coping with death

-







 





Death is a part of life that one can’t avoid. It’s significant and inevitable. People usually prefer to not talk about it which can lead to a lot of fear around it. Death with itself brings a feeling of loss and grief. It starts with denial, disbelief, or shock and continues with feelings of anger, pain, guilt until it takes a turn towards coping. It’s really important that one expresses their emotions and releases them by talking to people, journaling, or even crying since it allows them to let go of a big heavy bag that sits on their heart. It’s important to preserve the memories of the loved one that you lost by planting a tree and other alike ways, this helps one reconstruct their life and encourages them to keep moving. It’s easier said than done but death is also a part of life, acceptance takes time but it’s eventually achieved.

  Why focusing on menstrual health and hygiene is the need of the hour? "We knew we shouldn’t be ashamed. We weren’t ashamed. We were  grown-ass women—which is obviously why we paraded to the restrooms with tampons secretly stuffed into our cardigan sleeves as though we were spies delivering encrypted information…” - Chandler Baker, Whisper Network In order to address the issue of menstrual hygiene and snub the stigma and taboos that people often attach to it, we need to understand what the process of menstruation really is.  Menstruation begins between the ages of 12-15 and continues till the woman is 45-50 years old. It is the disposal of blood and mucosal tissues from the vagina and it occurs for a span of about five days every month . The interval between the first day of the ongoing period and the first day of the next period is 21-31 days (on an average 28 days) . If there is no sign of menstruation even after the age of 15 or if...

  "In the age of selfishness, selfless service is the only soap that truly purifies" ~ Mata Amritanandamayi We are often asked about what exactly inspired us to start this beautiful service of an NGO. And we, being the creative minds we are, saw it as an opportunity to let our readers know the sweet story behind this organization! For we love our audience and c'mon who doesn't like listening to inspiring incidents!  This goes back to a long time when our very own, CEO & General Secretary, Dr. Sumit Singh's parents were in their early middle age. They used to give away 70% of their salary to do as much philanthropy and selfless acts as possible. Yet none of them believed in boasting their benevolent attitude and their practice. Therefore no official platform was established back then.  " You don't need riches to do great things in life, you can make a huge difference by merely devoting your time and being compassionate!" ~ Mrs. Savitri Singh, o...

  “The Caste System cannot be said to have grown as a means of maintaining purity of blood. As a matter of fact, Caste system came into being long after the different races of India had commingled in blood and culture…What racial affinity is there between the Brahmin of Punjab and the Brahmin of Madras?...What racial difference is there between the Brahmin of Madras and the Pariah of Madras?...I am convinced that the real remedy is inter-marriage. Fusion of blood can alone create the feeling of being kith and kin and unless this feeling of kinship, of being kindred, becomes paramount the separatist feeling – the feeling of being aliens – created by Caste will not vanish…” -          B.R. Ambedkar   Let’s begin by considering the definition of marriage. A marriage is a social event and it is also a religious occasion. It is an auspicious ceremony – a ceremony that is believed to legalise the sacred bond that two consenting partners (who m...
