Why you should avoid asking these questions!

-How are you feeling about being a new mom?
The new mother is already going through an array of emotions and is confused at times about what she is feeling and why is she feeling a certain emotion Eg: She may experience feelings of sadness or loneliness due to being tired and home bound but also feel guilty about feeling these things as she has a child now and should be happy about it!

-Tell us about your delivery experience?
How did you feel? Was it painful?

What you might not understand while asking these questions is that the mother will relieve the whole experience while talking about it, it's overwhelming for her to answer the same question, while she's telling you about the process, she may feel uncomfortable, anxious and OF COURSE IT'S PAINFUL, Don't we all know that!

-Baby doesn't trouble na?Does the baby sleep properly or is fussy at night?
This is a troublesome question especially for first time mothers, they themselves are trying to figure out their babies way and schedule and have a fear of being judged by the visitor's

-Avoid sharing negative experiences about your own child
Doing so may be overwhelming for the new mother and may cause her anxiety. Every parent has a different experience with their child

-Don't compare the baby to any other baby
You might do it as a light hearted conversation but it can negatively impact the new mother. She might feel pressurised or concerned about her own child

-Don't ask too many questions, just wish her well and give your blessings to the child!

Over the years and since my understanding of the term 'pride' in the sense of identity - I have attempted to get to know the community, make friends from there, open up mental health accessibility, be a loyal ally and spread awareness each about the of the LGBTQIA+ community throughout the year. Each step is small. But hoping each small step leaves a big impact. 🏳️‍🌈💛

17.05.2023 - A workshop on Identification & Intervention for Special Needs in th classroom along with Differentiated instructions
•
Ms. Anvesha Fomra had come in for a teacher's training at Podar and I got a chance to sit in on her session. What a fantastic training this was!
•

1. The difference between integration & inclusion - Integration is having the child with special kids in the same environment as other kids. Inclusion is having the child in the same environment along with accomodation and modifications the child needs both in the classroom and rest of the environment.

2. I learned the 3 rules for identification and supporting the child: The 4 step identification process | The FID Rule | The Power of 5 Rule.

3. The fine balance between Dyslexia and general reading difficulty is that children with dyslexia have a low vocabulary for their age. This is a major marker.

4. Use neutral vocabulary - The language we use in front of the children about the child's gap or concern is the language they will imbibe for themselves.

5. The importance of demonstration and modelling with the entire class when helping a child with their behaviour.

6. Teaching children through movement the importance of others' presence.

Back in 2018 - Mental Health Care was just picking up and people were reaching out for help to understand their emotions, their mental state and build on their coping mechanisms.

Through continuous work both with our clients and our own self work - we realised that everyone was seeking out one thing: 'balance' ; 'harmony'.

They didn't want quick fixes or situational solutions - they wanted long term calm, strength and resilience to healthy coping with life's journey.

Till then Ekya neither had a name nor a logo. But through these explorations and reflections - we decided our logo would symbolize the human and the harmony.

Hence our logo is a being attaining harmony with a peaceful aura or bloom of the Lotus around them. It shows contentment, calm, hope, strength and most importantly possibility.

These will be added onto our vision each year thereby making it all encompassing.

Each year Ekya strives to build the Mental Health Platform & Accessibility realistically in terms of its reach, ethics and affordability in India. While we are very aware, a 100% is unlikely, anything beyond 10% reach and 1 place beyond our imagination is a win!

Mental Health is slow progress, but with consistency we'll get there and so will the people reaching out to us.
