In today’s ever-connected reality, especially amidst the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, it can be hard
to disengage from negative inputs – or any kind of input for that matter – and this constant flow of
information from all angles has left us more afraid, more anxious, and less confident overall. Conversely,
we’re still left seeking meaningful connection to the people and the experiences around us in a world
that seems to be constantly rushing forward.
However, hoping for things to change outside ourselves will only leave us trapped in this paradox of
connection and disconnection – it is once we open our minds to accept and understand our journeys
that the shift will begin from within. Following this principle is The Inner Reset, a three-phase
programme that aims to empower women all over South Asia by initiating this journey of self-realization.
Hosted by entrepreneur and Co-Founder of HomeTree Coworking Semal Bodh Mastani, The Inner Reset
seeks to be the spark that lights the fire towards women reclaiming their freedom and inner authority,
helping them build the confidence to push past the challenges posed to them to discover their potential.
Connection – both to oneself and others – lies at the core of this programme, with each of its three
phases designed with the aim of taking participants through this process of actualization.
Talking about how she conceptualized The Inner Reset, Semal Bodh Mastani stated: “Having been a
student of personal growth for the past 15 years, I have witnessed how my relationship with myself has
been my anchor during the most challenging times of my life, giving me hope, clarity and direction when
I needed it the most. Now, more than ever, when we live in the most uncertain times of our lives,
developing that inner anchor is crucial to build the resilience and adaptability needed to thrive in the
New Normal.”

The first phase, which was launched on 24 February with well-known personality Gaia Kodithuwakku,
saw a talk show featuring six daring Sri Lankan changemakers, who will share the inspiring stories of how
they overcame individual and societal challenges to come into alignment with themselves and
subsequently impact the lives of others. These six individuals serve as real-life examples of how
overcoming the depths of trauma and despair can serve as the springboard into Transformational
Growth.
The second phase will kick off a series of workshops and sharing circles for participants to undertake
their own inner transformation journey through authentic creative expression. Furthermore, these
sessions will help individuals realize how they can use their unique talents to create change in the word
in new and exciting ways, so that they can channel their efforts towards a rewarding career path, while
remaining unphased by a turbulent external reality.
The third phase will see an ambitious effort to bring together such conscious creatives and create social
change in how we work together, by enabling a community platform that facilitates co-creation – an
environment without rigid hierarchies where individuals can contribute towards any projects

they resonate with. This phase will follow a tested framework developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for an evolution in how we learn, create, and work together.

Through its phases, The Inner Reset aims to unlock the potential in each of us to achieve
self-actualization, where we cease to be defined by negative experiences and conditioning, and instead
take back control of our reality with the confidence to explore new avenues – changing the world in the
process. Especially in a region like South Asia, with cultural norms and societal expectations weighing
heavily on its women, this programme aims to encourage more women to stand up for themselves, to
breathe life into their ideas, and to inspire others in the process.

YOU ARE GOING TO BE OKAY , YOU ARE NOT ALONE

Mental health awareness is something which should be in trend forever, in my point of view every day everyone of us should remember to take up this topic of suicide prevention or about getting suicidal thoughts and start spreading anything which is related to mental health every single day as much as we all can

Mental health plays the major role in our lives!
Most of the times we all forget about taking care of it , at a point of our lives we lose the control on our own life and we struggle harder to come out of certain situations it all because of the careless mistake of not taking care of ourselves 
Not only about us but also about the people who we live with! We think that only the physical pain is the hardest but no we shouldn’t be like that and start realising the worth every human mental health matter too!

Even in some point of our lives, some where we all said this to our selves or to someone who stood next to us either as in a normal way or in a serious tone but non of us really took it seriously or we still don’t!
Yes that is ” I just feel like dieing right now or I just want to end my life now “

When someone says this , most of us think its because they want to seek attention or they are just joking ..etc Yes 90% of people around this world think so and they just ignore it 

But we shouldn’t be like this anymore, someone thinks about ending their life and how we all take it just as normal and sometimes we laugh about it too

And sometimes in return people say “Go die , who cares” in a funny tone which they didn’t really meant it

But the person who listen to it won’t be taking it as normal they will definitely think of ending their life more at the moment, they will recall those words which you used as for fun

Every day in my life I see people who share about someone who ended their life by suicide but the most saddest thing is,  it sound really normal but truly it isn’t

In other side I’ve seen people who also talk about so many mental health issues mostly importantly suicide prevention talks so like how I do now but I would say we shouldn’t stop doing this

It’s us who play the major role in someone else’s life where they fell in to depression and lead a stressful lives , if we can be nice , stay kind and spread kindness we can make someone else day a little better! Also,

We all should start talking about preventing suicide, stopping someone from getting suicidal thoughts, stop encouraging your friend,your loved one or your family member to say ” I feel like dieing ” in a serious or in a funny tone

As much as you can stop being selfish in this matter of asking some one “Are you okay” / “how was your day” and keep encouraging your circle of people to be happy and that every one of us got problems and every single problem has a solution

That one careless mistake of ignoring someone can end up in a different way and you will be regretting for your life time about it

Feeling stressed about something, falling in depression is not normal as we all think the person who goes through is the one who knows the real pain of it but is it okay to leave it as it is? No way

LETS STAND TOGETHER FOR EACH OTHER AND THINK OF EVERYONES MENTAL HEALTH TOO!
