FairGaze Webinar: Holistic Yoga & Pranayama Therapeutic Session in Covid Times
Every 21st of June, International Yoga Day is celebrated. It is praised to spread mindfulness about the significance and impacts of yoga on the wellbeing of the individuals. The word 'yoga' is extracted from Sanskrit which intends to join together.
This Yoga Day will not be the same one as every year it was. Remembering the pandemic circumstances around the globe, presently it will be celebrated on the web.
FairGaze thank and appreciate the school community, especially Bharat National Public School, for supporting this initiative.
MENSTRUATION AND ITS HYGIENE: NOT A TABOO BUT A NATURAL PHENOMENON!
Menstruation, especially in India is surrounded by an array of psychological and religious barriers due to high illiteracy and lack of knowledge regarding menstruation. Although it is a natural process, it is associated with several practices and perceptions within the community. This results in adverse health results. While reviewing our past literature and articles, it was found that the biggest hinderance that comes in the path of menstrual hygiene is little, inaccurate and incomplete knowledge. Girls and women have little or no knowledge about infections caused in the reproductive tract. This is due to improper teachings in our education system.
FairGaze also approaches to school students and conducts menstrual hygiene workshops there. One of the recent workshops related to this was held on 29th August’ 19 by Mr. Niraj Gera, a social activist.
