  • Why is Mental health important ? | Mana nallam yen mukiyam?
    Nov 10 2022
    Asking for help is often seen as an act of weakness. However, if we look closely taking financial help like loans is encouraged, similarly seeking a doctor's help for medical reasons is also encouraged. However, it's exactly the opposite in the case of wanting to seek mental health support. You don't have to necessarily reach a stage where seeking mental health support is your last resort. Anyone at any given point can reach out to a mental health professional. In fact, doing so can prevent the severity of mental health issues that one might face in future. However, there are several factors that stop one from taking that step. Such as : what other people will think, my problem isn't big enough to seek support, talking to friends and family is equal to therapy etc. In this episode. Listen to our host @subhalakshmi discuss with our guest Janani Vasanth that seeking help for mental health support is a sign of strength. And an active measure to take care of oneself. To catch more on this conversation. Tune in Now!

  • Death | Maranam
    Nov 1 2022
    Nothing is permanent in this world. And we are no exception to that. We often forget that we are mortals. And as Shakespeare says, "All the world's a stage and all the men and women are merely players". We enter the world, play our part, share some scenes with some people and exit when it's time. We are prepared and certain about the birth of a baby, but we can never be prepared or be certain about death. In this episode of Kalacharam Reset, listen to our host @subhalakshmi discuss with the guest, Sundaravalli about how perception around death can be so different. One must take their time to feel the grief without being tangled in the rituals. She also shares how; it doesn't always have to be a subject to mourn or to feel sorry about. We can celebrate death too by celebrating the kind of life one has lived. To catch more on this conversation. Tune in Now!

  • What is family? Oru kudumbam na enna?
    Oct 14 2022
    Culture is a part of our imagined realities that has evolved with time. The idea of "family" is one of the prime aspects of it. We can even say that it's the source of many cultural and social behaviours. We used to live in a certain way many years ago and that is rapidly changing according to changing socio-economic and political times. Our needs and demands were different before and now they are very different. We seem to have adopted a lot of new ways of living, be it technology, transport, or fashion. We have also accepted nuclear families as normal from joint families. However, what about accepting newer structures that challenge the age-old family tree? How about same-sex couples, single parents, and pet parents? Isn't family a place to feel belonged? If so, do we feel belong in our families all the time? Does family mean only blood relation? In this episode of Kalacharam Reset listen to our host @subhalakshmi discuss these questions with our guest Archana devi who a Charted Accountant by profession is, a single mom to a special child and an artist. Someone who's sailing through challenges like a boss and challenging every unstated norm that there is in society. She shares how, we need to cultivate the behaviour of empathy and not pity in society towards other people. Tune in now!
