Looking for good therapist to help with mental health and diagnosis.

Hi guys I'm looking to get some professional help with my mental health and see if I have ADHD, OCPD and other mental health conditions. Please suggest some good therapist/psychologist who can actually help me instead of giving medicines directly or brushing my issues aside.

A great way to get to know Auroville and Karmayoga

I came across this 1-day Karmayoga programme happening in Auroville on Saturday, 22 August, and thought it might be worth sharing here, especially for people who are new to Auroville or want to understand the place beyond just visiting Matrimandir/doing the usual guest activities.

It’s essentially a day-long immersion into what Auroville is actually about, through its founding vision, conversations with long-term Aurovilians, and the idea of Karmayoga - how everyday work and service can become part of one's inner development.

What I find interesting is that it doesn't seem to be designed as a typical workshop or tourist experience. You actually spend time engaging with the people, history, philosophy and work culture that make Auroville what it is

Seems particularly relevant if you're:

  • new to Auroville and trying to understand the place
  • volunteering or working here
  • staying for a while and want to go a little deeper
  • curious about the original vision behind Auroville

It’s on Saturday, 22 August, at the Pavilion of Tibetan Culture. The fee is ₹1,000 and applications close 19 August.

If you're interested, here's the page: https://purnam.co/akp

Sharing because I think this is a great one-day experience to get an authentic understanding of Auroville.

Salt air, stormy skies, and a quiet beacon

Black rocks cool beneath the weight of salt,

where the striped tower watches the tide unfold

No hurried footsteps, no crowded promenade today

just grey clouds leaning low over foaming blue

The road dissolves into damp, pale sand,

and somewhere between the sea breeze and the horizon,

the mind finally stops running

and learns to listen to the shore

Now that Nilgiris is closed what other options do you have for groceries shopping in Pondy 1 barring pothys

I used to find it less crowded and easier to navigate than pothys. Now it looks like they have closed permanently

Bachelor Party Idea

We’re planning a trip to Pondicherry with three other friends from the 26th–30th of this month. I’ve been to Pondy quite a few times, but when it comes to planning a bachelor party, I have absolutely no idea what to do.

We’re basically down for anything from wild parties and nightlife to meeting random people, discovering hidden spots, going on spontaneous side quests, trying crazy activities, or having some genuinely epic adventures.

So we’re looking for anything and everything happening in Pondy during those dates that could make this trip unforgettable. Events, parties, experiences, adventures, unusual places, nightlife, beach activities literally whatever you’ve got.
The only rule: we want to come back home alive. 😂

Help me plan a birthday trip for my mother! Starting from Hyderabad.

My mother (54) is coming to visit me (27/F) in Hyderabad. I want to take her out on a trip to a beach city somewhere. We don’t mind going by a train/bus. She will be coming for a week, so 3-4 days on a trip would be possible, 2nd september evening to 7th september. It is her birthday on 3rd so want to make it special.
I was thinking of pondicherry, or goa but not sure which one. Other options are welcomed too. I have been to vizag and chirala previously (without her) and would want some other options.

Since we won’t be spending much on travel, I want to stay in a good (6-8k/per night) hotel/resort with her.

She hasn’t been to a beach ever, would be her first time. I genuinely want her to have a good time, also not waste too much time exploring a lot of things, but having good experiences.
