Hello everyone! 🌻
I’m glad to share that yesterday I had the golden opportunity to organise a well-being session for the fresher trainees at Larsen & Toubro. The session aimed to help the trainees in order to build their own stress management toolkit at workplace as they enter into the real corporate world right after their training.
Focusing much upon the importance of awareness of emotions, impact of stress on the body and behaviour, mindfulness techniques were introduced in context with common challenges faced in the workplace/ work-sites.
Having to interact with the fresh faces of the organisation and looking at their energy, the session was about sustaining this spirit even under pressure.
Now-a-days, the importance of mental health and stress management is coming much in the picture in almost all the settings including corporates and larger industries like these. Even though hussel culture is popularised, we need to talk about balance. A talk about burnout, work life balance, stress and health, mental health at work, importance of identifying correct resources and people in adversity at work. We need to have a talk that matters. The Well-being Talk.!
And importance of this is now more than ever when we have researches after researches pointing towards how much the stress levels have elevated post COVID.
Glad that I could contribute my bit through such sessions, through my initiative, TheWellbeingTalk ( https://lnkd.in/dznRTPgw)
I look forward to having more and more of such programmes for the communities and varied other settings and even if the change is as small as the grain of rice, it matters.!
Lastly I’d like to thank my parents for always being supportive of my initiatives, Mr. Neerav Bansal for being truly proactive in connecting me with Nidhi ma’am and her too for the kind support she showed. Dr Anupama Sadasivan Thank you to you too! for hyping me up and seeing the capability in me to do wonders!
As one of the trainees quoted in the session “I believe that the session was upon something that people generally don’t think is important but actually is”, let’s move with one step at a time towards change. 🌻
