March 4, 2018: Initiation of Bhor Support Group Meet

The first meet of Bhor Support Group took place in Swarna Jayanti Park, Indirapuram, Delhi NCR, India. The meet took place successfully. We had four caregivers and two young supporters.

The topic of the session was personal growth. The practice of letting go was discussed.

Our surprise guest Porkodi Mike Wazowski Palaniappan who runs a successful activity center for mental health survivors and women in Chennai visited us. Her wisdom and experience of professionally giving care and activism inspired the group.

Porkodi brought
Paridhi Vs who is a practitioner healer and her sister, Supriya who shared experiences and value of alternate therapies, such as regression therapy in healing the wound of the soul. The idea being that while psychiatry is popular choice, one should look for more alternative therapies.

Support Group took place in a healthy and beautiful location. The attendees enjoyed the extracurricular.

Upcoming Support Group session: 8 April, 2018, Delhi NCR
