"Before this program, I was aware of my problems, but I never really did anything to resolve them."~ Palak Kaushik

Intitially I didn't think of this program to be structured like this when I registered for it. Then I got a call from Ishita, I was a bit nervous but excited about it and to be honest after talking to Ishita once, I felt blessed that I registered for it. She was understanding, good listener, supportive. She made me look at myself in a whole different way. She made me realise what are the areas of self I lack In and I need to improve and help me in doing so with the help of the app. She motivated me to achieve my daily goals by keeping a check on my task with the app. And app activities help me in keeping my thoughts balance, positive and encouraging. App activities help me to keep a track on my daily issues. Before this program I was aware of my problems but I never really did something to resolve them but Ishita helped me and motivated me in doing so.

I was having a mental and emotional breakdown almost every week because of family issues, relationship drama and career tension. Instead of working on all of these issues and resolving them, I kept on avoiding these issues but that didn't help me at all. Then I see a post about your program on Instagram and I registered for it. As I've never taken any therapy or counselling before, I thought this program to be designed like the sessions we see in movies. But they are so different but very helpful. I can see this change in myself- I used to just lay on my bed all day doing nothing and at nights having regrets about it. But during this program I started putting efforts to achieve and try to achieve the goals I've decided for the week.

Having such a positive and supporting mentor to guide me through all this was such a great thing. This program helped me in balancing my own and others’ negative and positive thoughts about me, which is I guess a very common way to look at problems but I never thought like that before this program happened to me.

"With other counsellors, I always ended up feeling abandoned after my session."~ Pooja Nair

I have been given a direction by the programme and specially my mentor Angeera. I have had haywire thoughts and the app helped me channelize my thoughts and showed that there is indeed a different way of thinking and that I can change.

My major struggle was with anxiety disorder. After the programme I am better able to manage my daily anxiety and the programme was so much more helpful in the current times when I cannot ask for social support from friends and family and nor can I work and divert my attention elsewhere.

The biggest positive aspect of the programme is self-reliance. Whenever I have taken counselling in the past, I have always relied on my counsellor to help me. I always ended up feeling abandoned after my counselling session ended since I believed I lost my crutch. But that was not the case with her because we are in the driving seat and mending and repairing ourselves here. No one else does that!

"This program has allowed me to manage my expectations and really understand who I am as a person and what I can achieve." ~ Janani

This program is extremely helpful in guiding your thoughts and rewiring some negative tendencies. I learned to not overextend so much. I learned that I don’t always have to prove myself to others and that not everyone is going to treat me the way that I treat them. I have learned to accept challenges and criticism and not be so defensive all the time. My need to be perfect has diminished and I truly believe it is because of this program.

This year has been so tough and unsettling. I got a lot out of this program because I genuinely wanted to be better for myself and the people around me. I felt an urge to improve my life and if this is something that you want for yourself, I highly recommend taking up the program. This program has allowed me to manage my expectations and really understand who I am as a person and what I can achieve. I am so thankful they reached out to me and I cannot wait to see how I implement these teachings as my life moves forward.

I liked how the program focuses on your primary trait that needs work and aids you in the process step by step. ~ G.A

I had filled the form for this program weeks before and out of blue the Dharma Life Sciences team reached out to me! When I enrolled into this program, I had been looking for a job for about 6 months after my masters with no luck. I came in with a history of depression, anxiety and PTSD and family issues. Being at home due to the whole pandemic situation after two years had me dealing with lot of issues at home. There were childhood wounds inside.

By the end of the program, I now have a job and even started working on getting my PhD. I have gained clarity about my life goals. All the childhood issues that came up over the course of the program transitioned from identifying these issues and where they come from to feeling sadness, guilt, shame and anger. Then finally into acceptance and taking accountability of my life, for where I am, what choices I made and where I am going. I am now more sure of myself and I am deriving less of my worth from how others view me. Earlier I used to be really dissatisfied with myself, now I have started giving myself credit for things and most importantly, I have stopped doing things for validation from others. Instead, now I do them just because I want to. The people pleasing tendency has reduced. I feel more free to be myself.
