Children are like delicate buds, full of potential, waiting to bloom. Their mental well-being is just as important as their physical health. By spreading awareness about mental health among children, we empower them with the tools to express their emotions, build resilience, and develop a positive mindset. Through open conversations, mindful activities, and emotional support, we create a nurturing environment where they feel heard, valued, and understood. Let’s work together to break the stigma, foster emotional intelligence, and ensure every child grows into a confident and happy individual. Because a healthy mind blooms into a bright future. Educationist and certified art therapist, Sagarika is the founder of Blooming Tan Man, promoting mental health awareness among children through school sessions on emotional well-being and stress management. With expertise in art-based therapy, she conducts transformative workshops for women, children, and students, inspiring self-discovery, personal growth, and inner peace.
