Out now ! Come Chai with me: Season 2: Episode 3:-
Social Media, Friend or Foe?
Never have we as a society ever been so connected. However, the adage, ‘so close but yet so far’ can be applied to the hugely popular Podcast, Sweet Bobby, where a young lady was subject to catfishing for almost a decade. Simmi, Kiki and Manusha consider if the victim was naïve . They try to unravel what was the motive behind the catfisher and how it appears that the law is unable to keep up with the speed of online crimes. They discuss if police needs to retrain or be given more resources to enforce protective measures and deter potential online criminality. The podcast also cites, the popular Netflix series, ‘The Tinder Swindler’ in terms of how the main perpetrator of online deception appeared to be lightly reprimanded.
It is easy in hindsight, to judge someone else’s frame of mind. Any of us could fall for these traps if we were in that situation. The motives of the catfisher are also extremely hazy. Was it control, power, manipulation, sa**sm, jealousy or did they have a narcistic streak? One suggestion in the podcast is based on a parallel with Othello, that catfishers simply do what they do because they can and no motivation is needed.

The presenters consider what Sweet Bobby says about the nature of 21st century relationships and centrality of internet based communication.

Our guest is Daksha Mistry who provides practical advice across age ranges to be more conscious and risk adverse when sharing or connecting online.

Its not like we were not warned about the perils of the Internet. An Internet meme about Internet anonymity began as a caption to a cartoon drawn by Peter Steiner and published by The New Yorker on July 5, 1993, it read, "On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog".
Social media is a powerful tool but we all must be cautious and hold awareness to its potential risks.

Just released : Season 2, Episode 1 : How to stay young…

Ageing is beautiful! As many people would say "what’s the alternative?"
There’s a lot of pressure in our society, especially on women, to age gracefully. What does that even mean?
Do we have to dress in a certain way to please others? Do we have to ‘act our age?’ Do we turn invisible after a certain age?
The Queen, aged 95, recently turned down the "Oldie of the year award" because she says "you are only as old as you feel."
Dolly Parton, aged 75, says "I don’t think about my life in terms of numbers."
"First of all, I ain’t never gonna be old because I ain’t got time to be old. I can’t stop long enough to grow old" - The Oprah Conversation - November 2020
Yoko Ono said "Some people are old when they’re 18 and some people are young when they’re 90."
"You can’t define people by whatever society determines as their age. Time is a concept that human beings created." - The Guardian February 2012
Ageing at all, is most definitely a privilege and the accumulation of experience and wisdom should not be feared.
There are two factors affecting the way we age: intrinsic factors - caused by the genes we inherit and extrinsic (external or environmental) factors, such as exposure to the sun’s rays, smoking, lack of exercise and poor nutrition.

Most of us know the importance of keeping mentally and physically healthy. Maintaining a sense of humour and fun are qualities in themselves that are a recipe for staying youthful. In the song by Frank Sinatra "Young at Heart" there are some very wise words to take note of...

"For it’s hard you will find, to be narrow of mind
If you’re young at heart
For as rich as you are, it’s better by far
To be young at heart"

There’s no doubt that there are some parts of the vitality of youth that we want to retain or re-capture as we get older.
On one of the episodes of Mindset Mentor titled "How to Reverse ageing and live to 150!" Our hosts learned some valuable insights into how to keep young and healthy. It’s good to start young but it’s never too late to start at any age.
Dr David Sinclair, biologist, professor of genetics and Co-director of the Paul F. Glenn Centre for the Biology of Ageing at Harvard Medical school discusses his pivotal studies on the human ageing process.
If you are looking for the "fountain of youth", Simmi, Kiki and Manju talk about their knowledge and experiences.
Fasting, hot/cold therapies, stressing the body out through the process of Hormesis and smiling and laughing a lot are just a few of the things that can contribute to achieving a younger looking and healthier body. Looking and feeling younger is all about taking care of yourself, inside and out.
We hope the tips on offer help keep you on track and stay ‘ young at heart.’

"Age is an issue of mind over matter.
If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter."

Mark Twain

and have become quite popular in recent years. Yet, most people can’t really define meditation, understand its purpose or appreciate what meditation is good for.

Simmi, Manju and Kiki discuss their own varied experiences.

Our guest this time is Mindi, a seasoned meditator. She answers questions about how meditation has helped in her life. She talks about the emotional benefits which include gaining a new perspective on stressful situations, focussing on the present and reducing negative emotions.
It could be said that meditation is to the mind what physical exercise is to the body. It is a mental exercise that involves relaxation, focus and awareness. Originally, the word ‘meditate’ actually means to think deeply about something. When eastern practices were ‘imported’ to Western culture, meditation has taken on the meaning of ‘focussing attention’ rather than to reflect deeply.
In Christianity, meditation is a type of contemplative prayer that creates a sense of union with God, or the contemplation of religious themes. In Buddhism, meditation is one of the core practises for the purification of mind and attainment of Nirvana.
After watching some episodes of ‘Headspace’ on Netflix our hosts discuss the various techniques of meditation that can benefit different aspects of life, from coping with stress and anxiety to understanding the importance of Gratitude. Headspace co-founder, Buddhist monk and best selling author Andy Puddicombe leads the way with personal stories and tips. The three of them found this approach enjoyable and enlightening. Andy also shares scientific research that shows the positive impact of meditation on the brain.
Believe it or not, with continued practice meditation can even reduce your body age by a significant number of years. So don’t worry about sitting cross legged on a hard floor. Find a comfortable chair and get meditating!
