It was in this manner that she was introduced to Amulya, a counselling psychologist with YourDOST. She was initially drawn towards these sessions as she wanted to work on achieving her goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of these goals included better time management, sticking to a proper routine and maintaining a healthier lifestyle. Sort of add a structure to my day.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She does mention that her lifestyle was a little haphazard earlier.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes you&#8217;re in a good mood, sometimes you just completely don&#8217;t feel like doing anything.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15995 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/yourdost-blog-images.s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/22143331\/archita1.jpg\" alt=\"archita wanted to work on her routine\" width=\"640\" height=\"350\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/350;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amulya helped her create a framework in order to get things back on track.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the techniques that she suggested was to think only about the next small thing that you should do. This not only helps elevate your mood but also makes you feel motivated.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Archita also started journaling which helped her connect with her emotions and thoughts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15996 lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/yourdost-blog-images.s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/22143339\/archita2.jpg\" alt=\"archita started journaling\" width=\"640\" height=\"350\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/350;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a couple of weeks, Archita started seeing a change. She was able to create a structure around her day and started consuming better content.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I started consuming better content in the morning and doing things that make me feel good about myself. That made all the difference when it came to my mood.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Archita also says that there is nothing wrong with having a coach for yourself when you feel like you are stuck in a rut.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having a coach is obviously very useful. It makes you a better version of yourself and gives you a new perspective about life. It doesn\u2019t always have to be a professional, it can be a friend, a teacher or a mentor.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We completely agree with Archita. Sometimes you just get caught in this tunnel vision where you&#8217;re not able to see outside of it. This is when you need someone to help you look at the problem from a different lens which pulls you out of that rabbit hole.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you&#8217;re talking to somebody else, you also feel more energized. That is also one of the things why we should always talk our problems out with someone we trust.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We salute Archita for her grit and courage. She has set a very positive example for the rest of us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Are you someone who has gone through a difficult phase and emerged stronger and better, with some professional help?
