this is a fun session with kids Abirami, vaishnavi ,dharmarajan, Vibha and Shankara. we tried to spin a story with each one building up the plot with their imagination. it turned out to be a comedy story with some message added. There was a king who ate lots of Bananas and he himself turned into a banana. what followed this quirky fate is to be found out by listening to the fun-filled interactive episode. lots of laughter and sparks of humour guaranteed. all those kids and parents listening to the episode can also try this idea of story spinning with the family during dinner time or bed time. hariom. this is Rajee patti telling you stories.the cover art is a collage of what the kids drew after listening to the story.
this is the story of vidura . why the Dharma deva was born as Vidhura is narrated here along with active participation of the kids Abirami Vaishnavi ,dharmarajan Vibha, Vaishnavi ,Shankara and Meenakshi

My guest today is Vibha Arora, and we're discussing being empty nesters. Vibha and I both share stories and feelings from our own kids launching and discuss how our relationship with our partners change. We get into how to rediscover yourself as someone besides Mom or Dad. Vibha and I finish our conversation, chatting about checking-in with our recently launched baby adults and the importance of tending to ourselves. Takeaways from the show The phrase “empty nest” versus “freedom nest” Our adult children leaving is our goal There's a wide range of feelings and emotions that come when our children leave the house, and those are all okay Our relationship with our partners changing during this phase of life Relaunching yourself as an empty nester & identity shifts Letting go of control and trusting our newly-launched adults When we jump in and fix things, we rob them of experiences and learning We have to be okay with it when our kids don't take our suggestions or advice Clarifying expectations and making a plan about checking-in with each other 5 Minute Journal Prompt: “I am…” For more show notes, including transcripts, visit our website here.

Vibha Akkaraju discovered a secret to growing a plentiful harvest that you wouldn't read in a gardening handbook.
Joining the show this week is a hospitality professional who creates distinct projects that make emotional connections with guests. Please welcome to the show, Senior Director of Design & Construction Services at Kempinski, Vibha Sawhney.Vibha joins Host Dan Ryan to discuss how she creates luxury projects that meet the needs of owners. Vibha also shares the importance of collaborative empathy, the value of meticulous attention to detail, and explores Kempinski's unique approach to luxury.Takeaways: Hospitality involves providing the highest level of service where the guest is considered supreme. For an architect, design and architecture are tools to craft unforgettable and comfortable memories for guests, emphasizing their supreme importance.To gain hands-on experience and a deeper understanding of materials, immerse yourself in working alongside skilled tradespeople like carpenters and metal workers. Understanding how they work allows you to better utilize a material in planning. The key to success is selecting the right partners who will give proper attention to your projects and act with empathy toward the end-users. It is essential to work collaboratively to achieve the best results and support the owner's vision.A successful property requires exceptional service across all locations and maintaining high standards in essential areas like breakfast and room comfort. Consideration must be given to space constraints, ensuring comfortable environments in smaller spaces.While many brands have a clear and defined aesthetic that should be designed for, your job is ultimately to work with an owner to tie their vision together. Successful collaboration blends both brand design and owner desires. Hotels are ultimately an ecosystem that requires collaboration between various functions and backgrounds to function properly. Collaboration can only happen if empathetic understanding is found between employees.

‘Nagaland for Christ' and ‘Jesus Saves' are familiar slogans prominently displayed on public transport and celebratory banners in Nagaland, north-east India. They express an idealization of Christian homogeneity that belies the underlying tensions and negotiations between Christian and non-Christian Naga. This religious division is intertwined with that of healing beliefs and practices, both animistic and biomedical. Vibha Joshi's book A Matter of Belief: Christian Conversion and Healing in North-East India (Berghahn Books, 2012) focuses on the particular experiences of the Angami Naga, one of the many Naga peoples. Like other Naga, they are citizens of the state of India but extend ethnolinguistically into Tibeto-Burman south-east Asia. This ambiguity and how it affects their Christianity, global involvement, indigenous cultural assertiveness, and nationalist struggle is explored. Not simply describing continuity through change, this study reveals the alternating Christian and non-Christian streams of discourse, one masking the other but at different times and in different guises.

This third in a seven part series on Studying And Practicing With "The Iddhipāda-Vibhaṅga Sutta -- An Analysis Of The Bases Of Power" addresses a type of situational awareness mentioned within the sutta. In the first portion of the podcast I speak without notes and reference notes included in the blog post in the other portion.
Dear Little Sisters! We are very excited to introduce you to Dr. Vibha Jawa who we'll be chatting with today. Dr. Jawa is an executive director at Bristol Myer's Squibb.
Your spouse/partner comes to you and says, “Hey, I need you to organize the shelves in the garage this weekend.” -OR- “Hey, I'd love to get the garage organized this weekend! Would you be willing to handle the shelves? Or would you rather tackle the pile of tools?” Which would most get you on board with their project? I am certainly MUCH more motivated when I'm not being told what to do, but being given choice. As promised, I'm back with more ideas on what TO DO to motivate your learner! Back in January, I had a fabulous discussion with Vibha Arora in which she suggested giving a child autonomy if they are shutting down and refusing to work. I agreed with Vibha on so many things, and this was no exception! Autonomy is very motivating! When a child is told that they “have to” do something, a child's autonomy is being removed and they will fight to get it back. “You have to ____” is instantly going to make a child less willing and interested in doing that thing. Autonomy's definition is: “the capacity to make an informed, uncoerced decision”. When we are using rewards and punishments, we are using coercion. How do we boost autonomy and motivation? Give Choices! Give developmentally-appropriate choices. Two choices for some kids, and many more for others. Give meaningful choices. Asking “do you want to use the crayon or colored pencil?” is less meaningful than “do you want to practice counting or do you want to practice your letters?” Both kinds of choices can boost autonomy, but more meaningful choices will go further in this aim. When kids feel powerless, they fight back. Which then causes us to up-level our authoritarian instincts (or is it just me?). We start to threaten or punish and they feel more powerless and things just spiral… But the opposite is also true: the more often we give choices, the more empowered they feel. When giving choices, you can give information about what is important to you. “It is important that you work on learning your letter sounds.” Then asking them how they'd like to do it, but offering choices that they can select from. Younger kids will have had less exposure to all the different options in how to learn something, so giving them a variety to choose from is helpful in their selecting a choice. Older kids won't necessarily need specific choice, but just the freedom to come up with ideas on how to achieve the goal. Give Responsibility When you are giving meaningful choices, you are giving kids control over something and allowing them to recognize that their choices are important. Don't force the responsibility, but allow for it. Allow them to engage meaningfully in the family and participate in what needs to happen. Rather than choosing a curriculum for your child, allow them to choose for themselves. This might be between two choices you've looked at, or it might be more open-ended and allowing them to do all the research behind it (for older kids). (“Would you like to use A or B for your reading curriculum? Look at these features…” or “We need a reading curriculum for next school year, do you want to take the lead on researching and choosing one?”) We might also allow our child to choose how or where they go to school. Maybe they can choose between two nearby schools, or maybe they can choose home school or public school. Maybe you homeschool, but are open to them selecting the style of homeschooling. You can allow them to take responsibility over their work space. And with that and other responsibilities, you can give parameters around what is acceptable to you, and establish what is important to them. “You need a clear space where you can focus on your studies.” and “I need this desk kept cleared off when you're not using it because having clutter in the living room doesn't work for me.” Give responsibility as a gift. Responsibility comes with benefits and consequences. It can allow for more freedom, but also more opportunity for messing up and needing to make repairs. Give responsibility and trust in your child. Follow Their Lead Whatever a child is already interested in, they're already intrinsically motivated toward. Encourage and support these interests as well as doing whatever you can to encourage them in developing new interests. (These are the WORST times to utilize rewards!) Takeaway: Autonomy can be very motivating! How do YOU foster autonomy?
In this episode, Vibha shares her story about how she got into the sunless industry and how far AYU Sunless has come. From helping a client, she found a love for the sunless industry and products and hasn't looked back.
