Aparna Piramal Raje

From talking about managing one’s anger, practicing mindfulness, feeling gratitude, knowing when to take a break and also building a rock-solid support system, her short one-minute videos discuss a gamut of issues that need addressing. Her own battle with mental health is out there, sometimes in photographs and often in stories. She doesn’t hide, and this transparency perhaps helps make her page more real and navigable.

In one of her posts, which we found relatable, she discussed the need for creating spaces that are safe and open, and where people could be candid, vulnerable, irrespective of having a mental health condition. This writer, having struggled through a low phase very recently, feels such a space could have helped her heal better and feel more detached from her problem. After all, everyone needs to be heard, no matter how insignificant the issue.    

An important topic that finds mention here is workplace well-being. Raje talks about how those in positions of authority can help create a positive work environment with open channels of communication, and also help employees through their stressors. In a post-pandemic environment, where everyone has experienced some kind of anxiety, it’s refreshing to see big corporate faces walk the talk. It’s a great step forward.
