• Why You Never Feel Like You Have Enough??

  “You can have anything you want in your life; you just can’t have everything you want!!” Not a long time ago, Indian middle-class households survived on the basic rule of using everything to the fullest!! We grew up sharing things like clothes, books among siblings, cousins and our dadi-nanis taught us to utilize everything in…

• The Teenage Brain: What’s going on in there??

  “The scariest part of raising teenagers is remembering the stupid things you did as a teenager.” From invading my privacy to guarding his own, from asking for my opinion on silly things to declaring, “oh Mom, you won’t understand…!!”, from being perfectly predictable to throwing completely unpredictable tantrums……. You guessed it right!! I am mom…

• Understanding Psychology: A Path to Better Mental Health

  “Taking care of your mind is not selfish, it’s essential!!“ There has always been a taboo about mental health. Accepting that I am having some problem in my life which is affecting my mental health takes a lot of courage. There is a general tendency of brushing it off as minor or insignificant. But sometimes,…

• तुम्हांला तुमच्या भावना ओळखता येतात का??

  तुमच्या भावना सांभाळण्यापेक्षा त्या भावनांवरची तुमची प्रतिक्रिया सांभाळणं जास्त गरजेचं असतं!! समस्त सजीव प्राण्यांमध्ये माणूस विशेष ठरतो कारण त्याला बुद्धी आणि वाणीचं वरदान मिळालं आहे. याशिवाय आपल्याजवळ भावना नावाचं एक अद्भुत साधन देखील आहे, ज्यामुळे आपल्या जीवनाला वेगळा अर्थ प्राप्त होतो. तर नेमक्या काय असतात या भावना आणि भावनांबद्दल जाणून घेण्याची काय गरज आहे? म्हणजे…

• Understanding Learned Helplessness

  “When your will power is gone, you are helpless!!” At some point or the other in our life, we have experienced a feeling of helplessness wherein we feel powerless and hopeless about changing a particular negative situation by doing something.

• सरसकट लेबल..!!

  “समजून घेण्यापेक्षा लेबल लावणे नेहमीच सोपे असते.” शीर्षक वाचून गडबडलात ना?? म्हणजे ही काय इंग्रजी-मराठी ची खिचडी असं नक्कीच वाटलं असेल. पण इथे लेबल हा शब्द खरंच मी इंग्रजी अर्थानेच वापरला आहे. म्हणजे शाळेत असताना कसं आपण नवीन पुस्तक-वह्यांना कवर घालून त्यावर आपले नाव, वर्ग इत्यादि माहिती असणारे लेबल लावत असू, तसंच आजकाल आपण आपल्या…

• Encouragement: An effective tool!!

  A child needs your love most when he deserves it least!! As we have already discussed in the previous blog post “Why do children misbehave?“, the misbehavior of children is a way of expressing their need to belong.

• Why do children misbehave?

  A misbehaving child is a discouraged child. Rudolf Dreikurs. We, as parents, teachers or adults always complain about the misbehavior of children, be it throwing tantrums, being aggressive, lying, answering back, bullying, attention-seeking, etc. We often don’t understand the reasons behind such behavior and therefore loose our cool as a response to any tantrum thrown…
