“Healing an animal is something that humans need, more than anything,” she says, adding, “It, in fact, heals us! Surrendering to nature and living as close to nature as possible is what we, as humans, need at this hour. Most of the human-nature conflict will then dissolve,” she insists.

A more mindfulness approach towards music - how deep listening and singing are both meditative and therapeutic at the same time.

#DidYouKnow As per the research by UCF, University in Florida, if you are in pain and your body is under distress, the pain sensors go back to your brain but if your brain is engaged in music or any other musical activity, then it actually stops responding to that pain which essentially means the body doesn't essentially go into that trauma.

Welcome to Sakal’s #WeAreInThisTogether, ‘Celebrating Music with Mahesh Kale’, renowned Indian classical vocalist who will be in conversation with well-known musicologist Deepak Raja.

Deepak Raja is a musicologist and writer with a unique skill set. He has been trained in the Etawah gharana of the Surbahar/Sitar, writes with knowledge of the art that he derives from having been a performer himself and an avid and careful listener.

#domesticviolence we all have faced it sometimes in a relationship, its high time we spoke about this in the open and stop worrying about the consequences, this problem, or issue as we call it does not occur only in the lower classes this happens in the upper class, upper-middle-class and the elite society as well, no one wants to speak about this and everyone tolerates domestic violence in some manner or the other, some think it will end shortly, some pity themselves for being where they are, some blame themselves for the situation and some do not want to get out of their comfort zones and hence allow violence. It is when abusive behavior is used by one partner to maintain control over the other partner be it male or female. They are different types of domestic violence one goes through like physical abuse, emotional abuse, economic abuse, psychological abuse, threats, etc.  Abusers humiliate their partners, they reduce their self-worth, isolate them from their family and friends and the victim feels helpless and powerless in this situation .it is important for us to understand that we need to stand up for ourselves empower ourselves, today there are many institutions and resources that help in these situations. We all need to live free and out of fear, We all need to reach out and speak. Dare to be Another U.

Boost Your Emotional Immunity

There is a steep rise in depression, anxiety, panic attacks, mood swings, domestic violence, and divorce rate. We are not recognizing them to be outcomes of lack of emotional strength. Instead, we are validating them as “Normal” reactions to the situation.

Following are guidelines about how these affirmations can be used to get optimum benefits.

Few simple lifestyle habits to boost emotionally immunity -

1. Energize your mind with a pure emotional diet every morning. Refrain from using phone or reading newspapers for at least an hour upon waking. With your first few thoughts, give gratitude to God, to your mind and body, to people in your life, and to everything you use. Say the 8 affirmations with conviction, visualizing, and feeling each statement.

2. Meditate for 20 minutes. For 30 minutes, study spiritual knowledge or any content that empowers your mind with vibrations of peace, love, happiness, faith, and wisdom.

3. Spend at least 30 minutes to exercise, yoga, walk, or gym, paying attention to thoughts. To energize your mind, you should avoid gossip or watching TV during the workout.

4. After every 1 hour, pause for 60 seconds and revise the 8 affirmations to recharge your mind.

5. Every day there are hours of continuous coverage about Covid-19 on media and social media. While it is important to be aware, it helps to limit news consumption. Otherwise repeated exposure increases fear and distress. You may choose to get updates for maybe 10 minutes a day and disconnect thereafter.

6. Your family and colleagues are adapting to new ways of living and working. They could be irritable, insecure, or anxious. Use your vibrations of peace and compassion in every interaction to heal them.

7. You are what you eat and drink. Food and water carry vibrational energy and therefore impact your emotional immunity. Today they have vibrations of fear and anxiety.

a. Cook for your family and eat home-cooked, Sattvic, vegetarian food. Your vibrations of love and care energize the meal and heal the minds of everyone who eats it.

b. Have high energy words such as mantra chants, songs of God’s remembrance, or spiritual discourses playing in the kitchen. They cleanse negative emotions and soothe everyone’s minds.

c. State the 8 affirmations before every meal to energize it.

d. Eat mindfully, away from phone and TV. Eat silently or have only happy conversations.

8. Sleep early to wake up early. Disconnect from work communication, gadgets, and emotionally

stimulating content, an hour before bedtime. Resolve issues on your mind. Meditate or read

positive messages for 10 minutes. Repeat the 8 affirmations as you fall asleep. They become a

part of your subconscious, radiate to your body, and into the environment for the next 6 hours.

When you create the same thoughts (affirmations) every morning, before every meal, before

drinking water each time and before sleep, you would have effectively repeated them for 15 to

20 times a day. Within a few days, these thoughts become your normal way of thinking. Your

thoughts will soon become your reality.
