Emotional Wellness -

EMOTIONAL WELLNESS PROGRAMS

The aim of these programs is to promote positive mental health. They help the participants experience more positive emotions such as happiness, calmness and relaxation as well as reduce various negative emotions such as stress, anxiety and anger. The programs empower the participants by providing them with simple yet effective scientific psychological techniques to build their Emotional First Aid Kit. Conducted within a group set up, these programs have been empirically proven to reduce distress, enhance mental wellbeing as well as self-efficacy. What makes it even more interesting is that the in-depth disclosure of the personal information of the participants is not necessarily required for the techniques to work effectively.

Though the EmoAid Self-help program is the complete program covering all the aspects of well-being including thought, emotion, cognition, action, and relationships with self and others, we have come up with smaller yet effective power-packed modules based on the time availability, duration and intensity of concerns.

Here are some outcomes shared by our participants during their immersive experiences with our various programs-

- The self-awareness they developed during the program helped them not only to be mindful but also to reduce the impact of negative emotions.
- The emotional agility they gained helped them deal with different stressors that life threw at them on a daily basis with more calmness.
- In the face of adversities, they were able to bounce back and take control of their lives with more confidence.
- They became equipped with better coping skills to handle their emotions and distressing experiences.
- The experiences of staying happier and calmer increased for them and were able to manage situations in a better way
- It was easier to let go of things, situations and thought patterns for many participants.
- Relationships with people could be managed in a more comfortable manner.
- They were able to declutter their minds and reduce their overthinking to a great extent.

A brief description of each of the programs is as follows:

EmoAid Self Help Program (SHP)

What is this program?

Have you ever heard of the emotional first aid kit? Have you ever felt the need to have one for yourself? Do you wish of having an instant relief from your emotions, such as stress, hurt and anger, just like a painkiller? How would it be if you have not only one, two or three but more than 15 different ways to regulate and handle your emotions as well as manage your relationships?

EmoAid’s one of a kind and exclusive Self Help Program provides you with numerous techniques and skills to build your very own Emotional First Aid kit to handle emotions such as stress, sadness, anxiety, anger, fear, irritation and frustration amongst many others. Created during the initial Covid-19 outbreak time, we have now equipped more than 1600 people with their own emotional first aid kits in a span of 24 months that they are using on a daily basis. Empirically and scientifically proven through research studies, the program has shown an increase in self efficacy- the belief of an individual how effectively they can deal with their challenges as well as enhanced mental wellbeing. The participants have also experienced a significant reduction in symptoms of stress, anxiety along with reduction in other negative emotions.

How does the EmoAid SHP work?

Having the option of doing the program both online or offline, EmoAid SHP provides an opportunity to the participants from all across the world to be a part of this highly effective and powerful process.

As the participants learn a wide array of techniques, a majority of them see the efficiency of techniques in a group setting even without sharing personal information. Keeping the number of participants limited in each batch.

Although the statistical results have demonstrated a significant improvement in symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression as well as improving mental wellbeing, self-efficacy and self-esteem the program is not an alternative to psychotherapy and does not cater to in-depth issues that might require personal attention.

Can I participate?

Individuals spanning across all age groups and walks of life can participate and extract their maximum emotional potential with the help of this inclusively designed program. It provides each participant with an immersive experience by keeping the number of participants in each batch limited and of a similar demographic.

What can I expect from the program?
As a participant, you will be able to imbibe the techniques you need to become self-reliant in handling your own emotions, in a safe space that is conducive to your emotional growth, without any intrusive questioning of your personal life.

By the end of the program, you will be equipped with the tools you need to address your emotions from a first-aid perspective just as you would for your physical wellbeing.
An added advantage is the continued support provided by the team through monthly virtual meetings with all the alumni which are optional and open to all the participants of the program. The program ensures the growth of each person that has embarked on this journey.
