A Mind Distracted with Distractions



 The mind is hard to control; it only seems to stray;
From one thought to the next, it only wants to play

Distractions are like monkeys, dancing/playing in your mind 
They’re hard to silence, hard to block, hard to leave behind

Our mind can hold focus, just as long as we can try
But in seconds can lose it all, leaving us wondering why;

Our mind is like a puppy – a puppy sniffling here and there.
Who doesn't even question, if anything is even fair.

Distractions are so frustrating; they change by the hour,
When you think you have it in control, you realise you lost power!

But, when they get so luring, and they pull you like a light
So, don't be afraid to face them, don't even try to fight.

An incident of coming across a homeless and mentally ill woman in distress on the road in front of her college in Chennai paved the route for Vandana Gopikumar to establish one of the leading NGOs in the field of mental health – The Banyan. While she was yet a Master’s student of Social Work, Vandana along with a close friend Vaishnavi Jayakumar encountered several other incidents of not being able to find the right shelter and mental institution for a woman in need of medical and psychiatric attention.     The Banyan, which was established in 1993 has been a one-stop destination to not only rescue, and rehabilitate but also treat mentally ill women from low-income groups.

4 Mindfully Spent Days At Woods At Sasan for a Writing Retreat with Bhavna Kher

Writing has been my passion for over 18 years so when I heard about the Writing Retreat that screenwriter, brand consultant and former creative director of Ogilvy - Bhavna Kher was going to conduct I was immediately interested in attending the same.     Not only this but I also wanted to connect with other writers and also sharpen my writing skills as well. It was a perfect opportunity to find inspiration within a focused environment.  Moreover, the 4-day writing retreat, (September 14- September 18th) which was conducted at a luxury boutique resort provided the perfect break from city life, and mindfully focused on sharpening one’s writing skills.  Having our independent quarters, we were surrounded by thickets of trees, within a lush mango orchard on the fringes of the Sasan Gir forest.
