New Delhi [India], October 10: On this Mental Health Day, we come together to amplify the importance of mental well-being and the diverse voices that advocate for it. Mental health is a fundamental aspect of our overall health, yet it remains shrouded in stigma and misunderstanding. In this article, we present insights from leading experts who share their perspectives on mental wellness, the challenges individuals face, and the strategies that can foster a healthier society. By shining a light on these voices, we aim to inspire conversations that promote awareness, understanding, and support for mental health initiatives in our communities.

 

1. Dr Vikas Bhatheja, PhD (Cognitive Psychology), Senior Consultant- Indus International Hospital, Chandigarh

On Mental Health Day, we must emphasize the importance of understanding the cognitive aspects of mental well-being. As a cognitive psychologist, I believe that our thoughts, beliefs, and perceptions significantly influence our mental health. Cognitive distortions—like negative thinking patterns—can lead to anxiety and depression if left unaddressed. Raising awareness about mental health is vital. We need to create environments where individuals feel safe to express their struggles and seek help. Encouraging healthy coping mechanisms, such as cognitive-behavioral strategies, can empower individuals to challenge and reframe negative thoughts. Additionally, fostering resilience through mindfulness and positive self-talk can significantly enhance emotional well-being. As we observe this day, let us commit to prioritizing mental health in our communities, ensuring that everyone has access to the resources and support necessary for a fulfilling life. Together, we can cultivate a culture of wellness and understanding.

 

2. Dr N. K. Tak, MBBS MD, FIPS, MIASM, Orange Belt (Marshal Art), Ex S.R. at AIIMS, New Delhi, Founder & CEO at Mann Clinic (Mental Health Startup), Jaipur

Dr N. K. Tak emphasizes the critical need to recognize mental health issues in the workplace. Symptoms can vary widely, but common indicators include a decline in performance, difficulty concentrating, mood swings, and changes in sleep or appetite. These signs may suggest it’s time to seek help, whether for yourself or a colleague.

Workplace challenges, such as long hours, a toxic environment, and insufficient support, can significantly impact mental well-being. Dr Tak advocates for proactive coping strategies. Prioritizing self-care through adequate sleep, a nutritious diet, and regular exercise can lead to substantial improvements in mental health.

Creating a balanced schedule and taking regular breaks are essential to prevent burnout and maintain productivity. “You’re not alone in this struggle,” Dr Tak notes. “Seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness.”

By fostering an open dialogue about mental health, we can create a more supportive workplace culture. Addressing mental health is not just an individual responsibility; it’s a collective commitment to well-being and productivity.

 

3. Ms Kiran Makhijani, Phd & MA in Clinical Psychology, Psychologist and Psychotherapist, Mumbai

Mental health is fluid, constantly shaped by our internal experiences and external environment. As a psychologist, I believe early intervention, especially in children, is key to building resilience and well-being throughout life. Mental health doesn’t exist in isolation—it’s woven into our daily lives, affected by our relationships, workspaces, and communities. By recognizing this, we can adopt simple yet powerful strategies for nurturing mental wellness. In every breath, in every step, Find moments to reflect, to rest. Mindful thoughts, gratitude’s song, Guide you gently when things feel wrong. Here are a few simple strategies: Micro-mindfulness: Stay present while brushing your teeth or commuting. These small mindful moments reduce anxiety and sharpen focus. Gratitude walk: Notice the sunlight, a bird’s song, or the breeze. This shifts your mindset toward positivity and builds resilience. Single-tasking: Focus on one task at a time, improving concentration and preventing burnout. Mood playlists: Music tailored to your emotional needs can uplift, soothe, or energize you. Creative breaks: Short bursts of creativity, like doodling or journaling, refresh your mind and reduce stress. These strategies easily fit into daily life, helping you build emotional stability and resilience over time. “Mental health is a daily commitment to yourself—small steps that lead to big changes.”

 

4. Dr Pooja Anand Sharma, Founder and Chairperson of Vishwas Healing Centre, Psychologist, Psychotherapist, Delhi

Dr. Pooja Anand Sharma (founder and chairperson of Vishwas Healing Centre), a renowned Psychologist and Psychotherapist with over 22 years of experience, emphasizes the critical bond between mental and physical health. She believes that the body and mind are inextricably linked—when one suffers, the other is impacted. Dr. Pooja advocates for a holistic approach to healing, addressing not only physical symptoms but also the mental and emotional dimensions of well-being. Through her expertise in psychology, energy healing, and integrative therapies, she encourages individuals to pay attention to their mental state as a pathway to enhancing physical health. Her approach promotes mindfulness, emotional release, and stress management, which, when combined with physical care, can transform health from within. Dr. Pooja’s philosophy revolves around balance, suggesting that the key to true well-being lies in nurturing both mind and body in harmony.

At Vishwas Healing Centre, she has introduced over 25 modalities that provide individuals with practical tools for healing and transformation, promoting long-lasting well-being. Driven by a commitment to uplift and inspire, Dr. Pooja is dedicated to guiding others on their journeys toward self-realization and inner growth.

 

5. Reena Chopra, Child Psychology and Modern Parenting Coach, Founder and CEO of SAAR Holistic Wellness

In the transformative journey of motherhood, a mother’s mental health is often neglected, though it is critical for nurturing happy, connected families. From emotional regulation and identity loss to mother guilt and chronic exhaustion, modern mothers face unique challenges. Ironically, while physical health is prioritized during pregnancy, little attention is given to mental wellbeing, leaving many to silently suffer from post-partum depression and feelings of worthlessness—particularly those forced to pause their careers.

It’s time to break the taboo surrounding maternal mental health. Research shows that resilient, confident, and emotionally balanced children are raised by mindful, mentally healthy mothers. This is a global issue, as seen in discussions with parents from South Africa to Texas, where the need for mental wellness support remains high. We must create an open dialogue and provide proactive resources for mothers, because happy, connected mothers foster kind, conscious children, essential for making the world a better place.

This Mental Health Awareness Day, let’s empower mothers by advocating for their mental wellbeing—because when mothers thrive, families and society flourish.

 

6. Ms Saumya Sharan, M.Phil (Gold Medallist), Senior Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Founder : The Pink Elephant, Gurgaon

As we witness another World Mental Health Day in a new year, it’s more important than ever to take a pause and reflect—not just at an individual level, but at a systemic and collective level. As a mental health professional with a decade of experience, I believe it’s high time we ask ourselves some difficult questions, both within our organizations and regarding the systems we are part of, as well as the people we work and live with: What do I want my life to be about?

What has made it so hard for me to take care of myself? What am I waiting for to move toward a life that truly emphasizes balance and well-being?

It’s time for us to delve deeper and understand how willing we are to address the sense of exhaustion we constantly feel (despite endless cups of coffee) and whether we’re ready to have the difficult conversations necessary for change.

New Delhi [India] October 10: Hafele’s Loox Range has been meeting the demands for lighting in furniture as well as the growing needs for networking and digitalization since the last 10 years. The solutions offered within this range maximize simplicity and flexibility as well as assure high reliability. The range presents itself as a unique combination of elegant design and state of the art technology making it the perfect choice for any home furniture application, be it Task Lighting for Kitchen cabinets and plinths, Decorative Lighting for Living Room Showcases, Mood Lighting for Bedroom Applications or pure Functional Lighting in Wardrobes.

With the ever-increasing demands for quality and specialized lighting solutions not just for furniture but also for rooms, Hafele in 2019 expanded its range offering to include ceiling cove lighting which incorporates our high-quality strip lights. It was during this period that we realized that among the numerous ceiling light types available in the market, interior architectural lighting had a huge demand, however there weren’t many prominent brands that offered these solutions. On one side, there existed local market players that offered these solutions without effective quality assurances, while on the other there were international brands that only catered to projects with no stable price offering or service support. This left majority of the customers without a viable choice in the market.

Identifying this distinct gap early on as an opportunity, Hafele initiated the research and engineering for a range of lights that enhances the design of architectural spaces as well as provides opportunities of achieving different illumination techniques and functionalities. As a brand, Hafele understands design and is known for its bend towards innovation. It also understands the importance of home ergonomics, lifestyle conveniences and ease of mobility within your surroundings. Our efforts towards this exercise led to the development of a versatile range of architectural lights; Hafele Architectural Lights was brought into existence.

With Hafele’s New Architectural Lighting Range, you will find all your lighting needs taken care of. Whether it is lighting up a small area, highlighting a wall texture, emphasizing on a work of art, illuminating the floor space at night or simply ensuring even distribution of light across the entire space – these lights have got you covered. The range, consisting of 9 series, covers various applications, installation techniques and design themes. Each series comes with a comprehensive offering of the different types of interior lights, be it downlights, spotlight or wall washers, which allows you to implement a consistent design theme (in terms of the lighting fixtures) across the space available, even with differentiated illumination techniques. The biggest advantage this range carries is the absolutely low Unified Glare Rating (UGR). The lower the UGR rating, the lower the glare from the light fittings which therefore results in comfortable illumination in your living spaces.

The convenient plug and play assembly, impressive product specifications, flexibility in ordering components, luminaire finishes, and availability of glare reduction accessories provide an overall customized option tailored to your specific requirements. Engineered on the same philosophy of ‘easiness’ and ‘flexibility’ as the Loox furniture lighting system, Hafele can now be your holistic lighting solutions provider, delivering premium ambient, task and accent lighting for your living spaces.

The Columbia Series

Experience true High-Definition interior lighting with Hafele’s new Columbia Architectural Lights Series that offers excellent true colour reproduction and sharper details. The compact luminaires from this series deliver a brighter light output, thanks to the premium reflectors that direct maximum light from the LED, efficiently illuminating your interior space.

In addition, the wall washer luminaires from this series give a soothing visual experience thanks to the reflector design which directs the light to the wall in a way that the light source is not visible directly. With an extremely low UGR of less than 16 and, single LED and multiple LED linear luminaire options, the Columbia series downlights and wall washers can be used to illuminate smaller and wider areas.

About Hafele India

Established as a wholly owned subsidiary of Hafele Global network, Hafele India has been operating in India since 2003. An authority in the field of architectural hardware, furniture and kitchen fittings and accessories, the company also has a strong presence in synergized product categories like Home Appliances, Interior and Furniture Lighting, Sanitary Solutions, and Surfaces positioning itself as a complete solution provider for interior solutions in India and South Asia.
