Emotional well-being for Sunbeam Educators Bhagwanpur’s Indiranagar more than 200 teachers 

The UMMEED way of creating possibilities

First of all I want to thank you for making us realise down the line that our mental health is also important to look after . We have been so busy with our schedules and to get over this pandemic that I nearly forgot about many things like acceptance and resilience. I was too part of those who were praying to get things back to normal.. but from yesterday I have changed my vision to accept this as new normal. And you truly have such a scintillating personality and vibrant persona ma'am. - Ayushi

 “The energy and vision that you brought to the webinar of yesterday's, helped to create something special. I just want to thank you again for facilitating all of us in a positive way.”

Regards, Smriti Mishra

“Mind blowing session held yesterday which was basically related to reality. Generally we only think about ourselves and do not think about others' perspective that what do they think and feel. Thank you ma'am for making us think and feel in different ways. Looking for more such sessions. Renu Chowdhury

Feedbacks

The virtual session of  Ms. Salony Priya was very  inspiring and we got to know about many more subjects which were unfamiliar to us. And we didn't knew the importance of those subject like madam talked  about Financial Management which was very knowledgeable for us. Madam talked to us for giving importance to traditional subjects. And there are many more subjects which we can go through in future other than core subjects Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Math's, Commerce.
The main lesson that we got through this session was that every subject has got it own importance and their are many more feilds and opportunities in those subjects so we should not get worried about the only core subjects and give importance to there optional subjects also.The session was very motivational for all of us.
Thank you.

It is rightly quoted by Abraham Lincon "You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today". The ideology of self responsibility was clearly expressed by Ms Salony Priya in today's virtual session on 'Self management -Post Pandemic Skills'. She gracefully taught us the ABCD of dealing with pandemic i.e, Approach, Belief,  Connect, and Denial to be diffused and how to be emotionally SMART. She also emphasized on not using the technology as our addiction but to utilize it for our unobstructed progress by giving example from her extensive and priceless experiences. Her wonderful explanation of ACT as Action Changes Things inspired us the most and will surely help us achieving the goals of our life. The session was interesting and interactive, which provided us with lots of  valuable points for our bright future endeavors.
