Why 5 Ways? ​
🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱

It captures 5 areas of our lives that if we can explore more are found to help us feel better with in ourselves.​
Here our some tips from us to implement the 5 ways of well being in your daily routine !

How much time do you spend on self care and love? 2 mins whilst dancing and brushing your teeth in the morning? Or perhaps with a face mask and tea after work? Still within the times of uncertainty, we hope you'll give yourself the moment to take a breather when it's needed. Do share how you practice improved wellness in our DMs! Also hope over a drive or walk you can tune in to our episodes over on Spotify or RSS to join in our conversations 💚

As the Pon-Gal Podcast, we commemorate the 12 year anniversary of the Mullivaikal Massacre and all the innocent lives lost throughout the Tamil Genocide and continue to do so. Whilst this is a heavy month of remembrance for us, we encourage everyone to recognize the resilience of our Tamils, whether it be on the island or the diaspora countries across the world, and to continue our powerful advocacy towards progress and accountability.🕯️
