Soumya Mariam Jose’s book titled “Mansum Manasigha Arogyivum” (Mind, and Its Wellness) is a comprehensive exploration of mental well-being in Malayalam. The book delves into the intricate relationship between the daily experiences and our psychological state, offering a nuanced understanding of the mind’s journey through life’s ups and downs.
Soumya Mariam Jose skillfully navigates a wide range of topics, from the psychological impact of celebrations to the challenges of parenting and the mental health implications of lockdowns. Through personal anecdotes and scientific research, the author illustrates how our mental health is deeply intertwined with our physical and emotional states.
One of the book’s unique contributions is its exploration of the often-overlooked psychological consequences of celebrations. It examines the underlying stressors and expectations associated with these events, providing practical advice for managing the emotional rollercoaster that can follow.
The book also offers valuable insights into the challenges of parenting in today’s world. Author Soumya Mariam Jose discusses the importance of emotional intelligence, setting boundaries, and fostering healthy communication within families.
Furthermore, the book provides a timely exploration of the mental health challenges faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. It offers strategies for coping with isolation, uncertainty, and the economic hardships associated with lockdowns.
The author delves into the unique stressors and pressures of living in a fast-paced urban environment, discussing the impact of social media, competition, and the constant hustle and bustle on mental health.
While the book covers a broad range of topics, some readers may find that certain areas could have been explored in more depth. Additionally, the focus on personal anecdotes might not resonate with all readers, particularly those seeking more scientific evidence-based approaches.
Nevertheless, “Mansum Manasigha Arogyivum” is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their mental well-being. It offers practical advice, thought-provoking insights, and a compassionate understanding of the challenges we face in our daily lives.
