As an individual, It has encouraged me to ask others about their wellbeing, as we are all hesitant to seek help. And It has encouraged me to take more care of myself.

As part of organizations, it has encouraged me to advocate for Organizational change which supports health professionals in managing emotionally challenging realities of the organization

And as part of the health sector, it has made me speak up for more for the entire health service and professionals being deserving candidates for more recognition and support

I thank NAMAH and its facilitators and staff for conducting this unique course, and I wish the best for its future, with the hope that more and more people benefit from it.

Keep up the good work !

NAMAH 5.0 has been a truly grounding experience. Several sessions helped me pause, reflect, and understand my own stress patterns better. The practices on self-regulation, mindful communication, and emotional awareness have improved both my personal well-being and the way I support others. I feel more balanced, empathetic, and confident in caring for colleagues and patients. Thank you for creating such a supportive learning space.

I bow down to the founder and the organizers of this program who have so beautifully crafted this master piece! 🙌

It was truly a life transforming experience for me.

I believe I can understand myself and others in a better way now, than I could, before attending this course.

The learnings I had from this course are going to guide me in navigating the rest of my life.

I wish every physician gets this blessing called NAMAH in their lives!

Grateful from the bottom of my heart to be a part of this 🙏

This course is very beautiful.

1)As a MBBS graduate ,NEET PG aspirant, freshly entering the medical profession ,many times I was in a dilemma to take clinical branch or non clinical due to stress times encountered in my internship days.

Not only in academics,in life also..many negatives thoughts,low confidence.

I tried talking to few seniors and well wishers but everyone pushed these things neglected .

ThIs IS THE PLACE ,SUBTLE EMOTIONS ARE CONSIDERED.

FACULTY,FELLOW PARTICIPANTS HAVE KEEN VISION ON ASPECTS OF EMOTIONS.

Like DR.JAYANTH SIR,DR AISHWARYA MAAM.

Cool and confident

For many words I don't even know the meaning also.

I came to know about this program from one of my friend, thought just to give a try.

there is so much information on the internet,chatgpt ,self help books ,support groups , misconceptions etc

BUT

THE NOTES OF THIS SESSIONS WILL BE STANDARD HARRISON FOR MENTAL WELL BEING FOR MY WHOLE LIFE AND PROFESSION

stigma of mental issues always drag me I'm the only one facing these issues

NOW I FEEL THERE ARE SO MANY SUFFERING, LEARNING ,NOT ONLY MY AGE BUT ALSO SENIORS,THERE IS BIG SUPPORT NAMAH PLATFORM.

Soon I'm planning to participate in the discussion forum ,learn from seniors ,share my thoughts

And heartful thanks to all the faculty, organisers ,co ordinators

NIMHANS INSTITUTE 🙏FOR GIVING ME THIS OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE

Thank you for planning such a wonderful course. To think about caring for the caregivers is a great thought in the practice of health care system. The whole course was well planned with focused lectures. This helped in better discussions and changed the outlook towards mental health among doctors. I hope the course expands to wider horizons of our fraternity and become a part of routine academic and clinical practice. Best wishes to team NAMAH. Let's join hands and walk this journey together as compassionate colleagues rather than competitive warriors.

Will definitely make us better propagators of this course and hopefully one day it will make its way into our UG and PG curriculum in some way so as to help all those in the medical field.

Very good insight into a Doctor's set of unique challenges along with those of a regular householder's.

Increased awareness will increase acceptance and early seeking of help and save us from any negative untoward outcomes.

Heartfelt thanks to the whole team for designing this wonderful online course available to us from our homes.

I had somewhat transformative experience as this course gave me a fresh perspective- a new filter- to understand Mental health. The whole content was insightful, practical and incredibly relatable. Each session unpacked concepts with clarity making mindfulness feel achievable. This has led me to pause and reflect on people and circumstances. Highly recommend to anyone looking to deepen their mental health journey- this is a must-try! Thanks to whole team for crafting such a thoughtful and empowering experience!

Dear Team,

I wanted to share my heartfelt feedback about the NAMAH 5.0 Mental Resilience for Doctors and Healthcare Providers program I attended. As a doctor, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to prioritize our own well-being while caring for others.

What struck me most was how the program empowered me to recognize the importance of simple practices, social connections, and family bonding in building resilience. The emphasis on self-care, mindfulness, and community support resonated deeply with me.

I'm excited to implement these strategies not only in my own life but also within my community of medical staff. Burnout is a pressing issue in healthcare, and it's essential we address it proactively. I'm grateful for the tools and insights gained from Namah 5.0, which will enable me to make a positive impact.

Thank you for offering this valuable program. I'm eager to see the ripple effect it creates!

Warm regards,

Dr. Vidyavathi

This course for Mental Health Resilience for Doctors was so beautifully crafted. The entire team of NAMHA 4.0 deserves special appreciation for all the hard work they have been doing excellent work during the past 12 weeks. Dr. Prabhat Chand Sir deserves special mentioning. Thanks a lot all the help and guidance which is very special for the government doctors working in peripheral parts of India.

The validation session was so encouraging. The validation address by Dr. Pratima Murthy was even more encouraging. Thanks for crafting this session.

I wish to thank team NAMHA 4.0 from the core of my heart.

NAMAH 4.0 by VKN NIMHANS Digital Academy was not merely a programme but a pilgrimage of the mind and spirit. Each session unfurled like a tapestry of wisdom, interwoven with the lived experiences of mentors and peers.

I carry forward not just knowledge but a renewed conviction—that empathy is the stethoscope of the soul and work-life balance the elixir of endurance.

Gratitude to the whole NAMAH team for orchestrating this intellectual odyssey.

It was an amazing journey with shared stories and experiences. Kudos to the faculty who have taken the pains to make the entire experience interactive and gainful.

It was an excellent programme with good didactic lectures by experts, discussions with participants , Exams and Slido quiz . I could revise a lot of my knowledge of Psychiatry and also could get answers to many difficult day to day issues. It will definitely help me in dealing with mental health issues of patients a.w.a as co workers & subordinates . The Slido quiz was my favourite as it checked your knowledge with minimal response time . The duration given for exams is 90 min which can be reduced as 15 MCQs I used to finish max in 15min. A heartfelt gratitude to NAMAH team & NIMHANS for conducted such course with cutting edge technology !

It has been a wonderful learning experience being a part of NAMAH 4.0. It provided a safe space to all the participants to discuss the various aspects of our own mental health and also taught us how to create safe holding spaces for our friends who are doctors themselves. It highlighted the fact that just because we are doctors, we are not immune to mental illnesses and we also need holistic treatment strategies. It was heartening to learn from each others stories, vulnerabilities and triumphs across various life facets, be a professional, personal or social. New techniques of relaxation, recharging and stress busting were discovered. The :All Teach, All Learn" model made it engaging and thought provoking for everyone. Thank you team NAMAH for designing, conceptualizing and executing this beautiful program and letting me be part of it.

# data[].attributes.body
It's great to see a formal program on mental health for doctors. We don't mind our own mental health; the stress, distress, and anxiety often keep building up and affect our own well-being. Thank you, Team NAMAH, for this wonderful opportunity to recharge and rejuvenate!

It has been a truly enriching and humbling experience to serve as the course coordinator for NAMAH 3.0. This journey was not just a professional commitment, it became a personal transformation. Each session, discussion, and interaction offered me a moment to pause, reflect, and grow.

I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have witnessed the strength and vulnerability of our healthcare heroes. NAMAH 3.0 reminded me that healing is not just about medicine, but also about empathy, connection, and resilience. From this experience, I’ve carried forward powerful lessons: That vulnerability is strength, that it’s okay to slow down, that listening can be more powerful than speaking, and that hope can be a quiet, persistent force that keeps us going.

To every participant, your courage, openness, and commitment have left a lasting mark on me. Thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your journey.

GRATITUDE, ALWAYS.

Participating In This 12-Week Program Has Been A Transformative Experience.

As A Doctor, I’ve Often Found Myself Neglecting My Own Mental Well-Being In The Process Of Caring For Others. This Course Gave Me Both The Space And The Tools To Reflect, Recharge, And Rebuild Emotional Resilience.

The Sessions On Mindfulness, Emotional Regulation, And Managing Burnout Were Especially Impactful. Learning Practical Strategies Like Grounding Exercises, Journaling, And Cognitive Reframing Helped Me Deal With Workplace Stress More Effectively.

The Peer Support And Shared Experiences From Fellow Healthcare Workers Created A Safe And Validating Environment That Reminded Me I’m Not Alone In This Journey.

The Weekly Structure Allowed Gradual Integration Of New Habits Without Feeling Overwhelmed. I Now Feel More Equipped To Set Boundaries, Prioritize Self-Care, And Recognize Early Signs Of Stress And Fatigue—Both In Myself And My Colleagues.

I Sincerely Recommend This Program To Every Health Professional. It’s Not Just About Surviving The Profession—It’s About Learning How To Thrive Within It."

Dear NAMAH 2.0 team

Please accept my sincere regards to all of you for taking me aboard this journey of personal growth, motivation, connection, learning and acceptance. I am amazed to see how most of us are going through struggles that are not visible.

The program has ensured rich and deep discussions that have opened a new dimension in my being. I can resonate with doctors as a big community of vulnerable individuals who don't get an open door to reach out and express themselves.

I am grateful to all the participants who shared their journeys and coping strategies, it has helped me to enrich my outlook towards life.

I hope NAMAH will continue to provide insights and an open platform to reveal more of ourselves as humans. I will recommend this program to may fellow and friends who are feeling lost in the maze.

I thank everyone associated with this venture and pass on my good wishes to you all.

It has been an absolute pleasure serving as a course coordinator of NAMAH 2.0. Each scenario presented provided me an opportunity to introspect

I have personally benefitted in many ways through this journey. From each of you, I have learned invaluable life lessons: Every crisis will end and will definitely have a solution, it is ok to take a break, work on self and rekindle lost passion, it is ok to seek help when our chips are down, how to find purpose and meaning in the next best alternative even if our first alternative does not work out. Deepest gratitude to all of you. Through this course I realized the hardships faced by healthcare providers, yet they show up every day to care for others. GRATITUDE ALL THE WAY

This wasn't just a course for academic learning. It was a journey; a personal, professional, social and psychological one for me as well as many of my course-mates. I'd never thought how many of us had different but thematically similar stories to tell and motivations to gather from each other. One key insight I found was that it doesn't matter if you're sensitive, or seemingly strong or sturdy; stress, burnout and life stressors are part and parcel of a doctor's journey. Things we need to inculcate and nurture are resilience, perseverence, maintaining healthy boundaries, learning when to say 'no' or to 'leave and move on'. Having support always helps, sometimes even more when it comes from the organisation itself. We, being part of many such institutions/ organizations, must become the pillars of strength for all such persons in need of support.😇😇

Dear friends and colleagues, I recently came across this quote: "What is to give light must endure burning" -- Viktor Frankl. It is so true and reflected during the discussion. Each of us has joined, contributed, and learnt, becauase we thought it is important to be resilient. As quoted, "Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it's having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome. Vulnerability is not weakness; it's our greatest measure of courage." — Brené Brown. Sincere thanks to all of you for being part of this journey.

Each weekly 90-minute NAMAH ECHO session features doctor-led scenario presentations and a brief didactic component, as a part of 'All Teach, All Learn' approach where every professional contributes valuable insights and grows together.

# data[].attributes.body
The NAMAH program has been an enriching journey and I think it will continue to help me personally and professionally. The didactics, e-learn resources, and discussions on the forum were relevant and useful. Learning through case scenarios was among the highlights of this program. It provided a safe space for the participants to be vulnerable. I learned immensely from the variety of coping strategies and underlying themes. The way everyone interacted with a non-judgmental attitude allowed for open communication. It was truly "All teach all learn". It felt like being a part of a community with similar goals. I am glad that I could be a part of the program and hope that it continues to empower healthcare professionals. I will continue to recommend it to people and would like to participate in more such programs.

This had been enriching journey through NAMAH, I had personally learned lot regards mental resilience and perseverance. Case based discussions were very interactive and slido quiz held our attention throughout didactic lecture.Faculties were very helpful and great felicitators of knowledge.

Thanks NAMAH for memorable experience

I'm absolutely thrilled with this NAMAH 2.0 course! The content was engaging, informative, and well-structured. The teaching style was clear and concise, making complex topics easy to understand. I loved the case scenarios, interactive elements and the opportunity to connect with fellow learners. The course has exceeded my expectations, and I've gained valuable knowledge and skills that I can apply in real-life situations. Kudos to the team for creating such a high-quality learning experience in terms of "All teach, All learn" model. Thanks a lot once again to Prabhat sir, Narsimha sir, Jayant sir, Tejdeepika ma'm, Manjunatha sir and everyone at VKN NIMHANS.

A well thought out and flawlessly executed learning program. Glad for the opportunity to be a part of the learning.

Learning through the case scenarios was the best way.

Relevant topics were discussed.

It gave a chance to reflect on the present situation as doctor and chalk out the future to have a a more balanced life both professionally and personally.

After joining this course i realize that everyone needs help in crisis and doctors are more vulnerable for their health oriented problems, so they should seek professional help at time instead of self management which is not working for them

The program taught me how important it is to share your feelings as our profession is challenging and demanding. It was really an eye opener after having heard so many cases and in depth didactic s.

# data[].attributes.body
Reflections on didactic lectures was beneficial in learning the concepts of self progress. Case scenario based learning was most beneficial in terms of being therapeutic.

I would definitely recommend Namah to those whom I come across.

Kudos to the team.

Being part of the NAMAH ECHO program was a truly transformative experience. Each session offered practical insights into resilience, wellness, and emotional well-being that deeply resonated with my journey as a medical professional.

A defining moment was presenting my case titled "I Became a Doctor… But Not the One I Dreamed Of" — a personal account of silent conflict, identity search, and inner reflection. Sharing this narrative helped me confront long-held emotions and gave me a platform to be vulnerable in a safe and supportive space.

The encouragement and reflections from the NAMAH community made me realize I’m not alone in this journey. It rekindled a sense of purpose and reminded me that healing begins with acknowledgment — both for our patients and ourselves.

I am grateful for this space and the strength it gave me to keep growing, both as a doctor and as a human being.
