Take Assessments
When it comes to gauging where you stand on the mental wellness spectrum, it does not do well to guess. Our free resource of scientific self-assessments has been developed by trained professionals and allows you to understand and evaluate your well-being.
Mastering Wellness
Mental Wellness is a desirable state of mind- one in which we are calm, in control of our actions and participative in our community.
Mastering wellness is very important because it allows us to embrace life through the highs and the lows.

Adolescents
Adolescence is not an easy time for kids. Along with undergoing physical and emotional changes, they are, for the first time in their lives facing the world outside without parental guidance and protection. Processing all of this can be pressuring and may result is mental tumult. They may face a wide range of problems from exam stress and bullying to substance abuse and aggression. A healthy adolescence is important to ensure a well-rounded adulthood for the individual.
Work Stress
The majority of an adult’s life is spent at their workplace where they are under extreme pressure to compare, perform and excel. Typically, the workplace environment brings together individuals with a wide range of differences which inadvertently cause conflict. Some may also face issues like discrimination, harassment, low motivation and communication problems. It becomes essential t understand how to cope with these to maintain a sense of peace of mind.
Relationships
Interpersonal relationships, especially romantic ones are amongst the most complex and delicate bonds we form during our lifetimes. Every relationship has its ups and downs, and while everything is rosy at the highs it is crucial to know how to get through the lows. Since almost everybody is (or expects to be) in such a relationship at some point of time in their life, having these skills can help everyone find the best in every relationship.
Parenting
Parenting is a challenge that life throws us with very little in terms of how to go about it. With a changing world, every new generation faces a fresh series of challenges on what is the “right” way to raise their kids. While every parent wants to do what’s best, it becomes very difficult when you don’t know what’s best! There is no guided map for parenting, however, a few basic things can be learnt that help to ensure an open, healthy relationship between parents and children.
Mood Management
Emotions are not something we feel in set structure or patterns. One day we could feel a spike in joy and then that same evening experience blues. This is all normal. However, sometimes our mood can waver too much, or swing way too far to the extremes. This can hamper daily functioning and impair decision making abilities. While experiencing every emotion is what truly brings flavour into our lives, understanding how to manage them helps us function better as a society.
Thought Management
Humans have over 60,000 thoughts in a day. Were you aware that you think so much? Sifting through all these thoughts helps us understand ourselves better. We begin to understand our motivations and with this awareness, we can learn to make informed decisions. It might be difficult at first, but like everything else it gets better with practice. Just hearing yourself think makes a huge impact on your life.
Personal Growth
Personal development covers activities that improve awareness and identity, develop talents and potential, build human capital and facilitate employability, enhance the quality of life and contribute to the realization of dreams and aspirations. Every day we are evolving and changing as human beings. Growing makes sure that this change happens in a positive direction.
Healthy Aging
Ageing is not necessarily a burden and does not necessarily mean a reduced capability in a person’s ability to contribute to society. Healthy aging is about optimizing opportunities for good health so that older people can take an active part in society and enjoy a high and independent quality of life. This is simple to achieve with continued and consistent good choices in nutrition, exercise, treatments and lifestyle.
Psycho-Spirituality
Psycho-Spirituality is the interface of our Consciousness, Mind and Body. It refers to the traditionally or culturally accepted practices that can influence our mental and emotional well-being. There is emerging and widely acceptable evidence that practices like meditation, mindfulness, spiritual cognitive restructuring and concepts like values, altruism, hope, soul consciousness etc. can influence the health of our bodies and our minds.

Psychological First Aid
When terrible things happen in our communities, countries and the world, we want to reach out a helping hand to those who are affected. Psychological First Aid involves humane, supportive and practical help to fellow human beings suffering serious crisis events.
This is a Psychological First Aid guide written for people in a position to help others who have experienced an extremely distressing event. It gives a framework for supporting people in ways that respect their dignity, culture and abilities. Despite its name, psychological first aid covers both social and psychological support.
Perhaps you are called upon as a staff member or volunteer to help in a major disaster, or you find yourself at the scene of an accident where people are hurt. Perhaps you are a teacher or health worker talking with someone from your community who has just witnessed the violent death of a loved one. This guide will help you to know the most supportive things to say and do for people who are very distressed. It will also give you information on how to approach a new situation safely for yourself and others, and not to cause harm by your actions.
This guide – endorsed by many international agencies including World Health Organization (WHO) – reflects the emerging international consensus on how to support people in the immediate aftermath of extremely stressful events.
You can access the original guide in English here.
The exclusive rights to translate the document Psychological First Aid: Guide for Field Workers from English to Hindi has been given by the World Health organization (WHO) to RAHAT Charitable & Medical Research Trust. This guide is available to everyone for downloading free of charge and without any discrimination.

Gender-based colours in toys can spur harmful stereotypes
The colour discrimination in the toys can manipulate the idea of gender roles set by the society in children at a tender age. Once a child learns about a specific gender identity, their behaviour can be guided by the standards set as being appropriate for their specific sex.
