The St Xavier’s High School, Ghaziabad, NH 24, organised Mandala Workshop and Anger Management webinar sessions via their Facebook page on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Jayashree Arora, a motivational speaker and film, TV and theatre actress, conducted the anger management session.
Around 500 students explored new realms of their artistic bent in the Mandala Workshop & Competition which was open to the age group of five-15. The participants learnt about the brief history of Mandala art form and created different patterns from geometrical designs during the workshop conducted by Karishma, an art teacher.
Arora addressed parents and students by suggesting tips on how to manage frustration & anxiety and create stronger base for communication in the family. She also said: “Anger has become a common emotion in this lockdown, amongst parents, children and teachers. It can be very well managed if we understand the origin of this emotion scientifically — our brain has two hemispheres- right and left. Right part becomes active in frustration, but left part lets the logic sink in. In order to manage our anger, we must give ourselves some time and let the left brain activate the logical side.”
