The pride she gets in her job is one of the major motivators for her, which pushes her to do better things with each passing day. Along with these, Vinita also enjoys reading, gear bike riding, and cooking every once in a while, to freshen her up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>\u201cI\u2019ve been a listener for everyone, so when I got to know about YourDOST as WittyPen\u2019s emotional wellness coach, I thought, why not make a good use of it!?\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>For Vinita, counseling came as an emotional wellness program from YourDOST. She was not dealing with any pertaining issue at that point, but she decided to take therapy sessions nevertheless for the betterment of her mental health. Though Vinita did not have anger issues as such, she was still hoping to control her outbursts which occurred every now and then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI attend a few workshops from YourDOST, which were very self-driven, At the end of those sessions, I began self-introspecting.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vinita often found herself surrounded by negativity from her family members. She points out how they weren&#8217;t always supportive of her decisions, how they\u2019d constantly ask her to eat less, and often pinpoint things that shouldn\u2019t matter. All in all, the lack of support from her family made Vinita feel a tornado of anger within her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vinita also couldn&#8217;t talk about this with anyone, as did not have a smooth relationship with those around her. The gap between her and her brother also made her not discuss these with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to all the anger, Vinita also found her heart rate to go up abnormally and that\u2019s when she realized she might be anxious too. This was the incident that pushed Vinita to take further counseling sessions with a dedicated expert from YourDOST, and that\u2019s how she got connected with Ms. Sailee Bhadane from YourDOST.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/yourdost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/istockphoto-1277120551-612x612-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19390 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 612px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 612\/408;\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI also got a positive push from Joses, the Customer Success Manager for WittyPen to take out time from my busy schedule and simply connect with an expert. \u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vinita was also going through several other issues, such as previous relationships, family forced to get married, and so on. Vinita feels like Sailee came to her at the right time, to help her reduce her anger and also get over the elements of her past relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sailee heard Vinita out so patiently. Sailee only shared her own perspective once Vinita was done talking. This helped Vinita articulate her thoughts and communicate better. Vinita got the \u201cYou\u2019re not alone\u201d feeling right after the first session with Sailee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sailee helped Vinita handle her anger and openly discuss the challenges she was facing. Vinita finally began to learn that it\u2019s okay to say no, and it\u2019s also okay to distance yourself from a person who might be draining you out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>\u201cThe sessions helped me add a touch of humor to my problems, it helped me set boundaries too. I realised anger is okay but the way you channel it, is more important.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>With this, once Vinita understood that anger is a normal emotion, she then began to work on herself getting better because there wasn&#8217;t any pressure and her feelings were valid. Vinita recalls YourDOST\u2019s sessions on anger management and began to incorporate them into her daily life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a country like India where women are asked not to get angry or lose their calm, Vinita met a group of women and they discussed all things anger, in one of the sessions. Such sessions and Sailee\u2019s constant support touched Vinita\u2019s heart, that someone finally understands her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cSailee brought in the &#8220;you can&#8221; factor such as you can set boundaries, you can be less controlling about certain things as I like to control my environment.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/yourdost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Vinita-blog-image-YD-warrior-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19391 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/350;\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>After a few sessions, Vinita understood that anger is normal and also learned a few techniques to identify the triggers and ways to control them. She now communicates well with her mother where she puts her point of view and also tells her mother how certain words have been hurting her. Such open communication worked wonders and she feels they are very necessary to form a good bond with anyone. Vinita also doesn&#8217;t pester herself for being angry anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Vinita, the sessions with Sailee were delightful! Like many of us, Vinita initially was afraid thinking that she might not be able to connect with the expert, but Sailee\u2019s vibes made her feel comfortable and at ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cSailee made me gather courage and feel normal. She&#8217;s amazing and very connecting as an individual. It never felt professional, instead felt like I&#8217;m talking to a person I know.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After seeking help for herself, Vinita now feels grateful for platforms and services like YourDOST. She feels with the help of YourDOST, she and her team are in the right mind to face any challenges thrown at them. Seeing her team also participate in various webinars and workshops of YourDOST made Vinita feel proud of how everyone now is taking care of their mental health and advocating the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sailee\u2019s friendly attitude was the best part about counseling for Vinita and she rated her improvement through therapy a 3 on 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vinita describes her overall improvement with the simple word \u2018amazing\u2019, and surely, we at YourDOST feel the exact same for Vinita and her undying spirit of becoming a better version of herself with each day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#677373\"><strong>Vinita&#8217;s Warrior Tips:<\/strong><br data-rich-text-line-break=\"true\"><strong>1.
