The Miracle of Music Therapy: With music a child artist smilingly underwent surgery

Child artist Parv Thacker, who has been taking music therapy for years under the Krup Music Therapy Clinic and Research Centre managed by Give Vacha Foundation and Krup Music, underwent a successful clubfoot surgery with music and a smile on his face at Arsh Children’s Orthopedic Hospital Ahmedabad. While various research is being done by organizations on the effects of music on the mind and body, an experiment on the positive impacts of music therapy during surgery was successfully done by music therapist Dr. Krupesh Thacker. Parv who had been affected by clubfoot, has been receiving regular music therapy for six years. As a result, through music Parv not only found relief from pain but also had intellectual and emotional development, strong willpower, and self-confidence in his personality. He underwent the surgery fearlessly with music therapy taken for the operation. Even the doctors were surprised to see the little child staying so calm for the operation. Not only that but after his surgery, he performed devotional songs to express his gratitude to the doctors and staff members at the hospital. Talking about that Dr. Krupesh said that music therapy is the science of awakening the seven chakras of the body with the harmony of the seven notes of music. The successful outcome of Parv’s regular therapy can be seen in his charismatic personality, strong self-confidence, and a smile on his face even during operations. In addition, Ayurveda specialist and child counselor mother, Dr. Pooja Thacker added that surgery is a very stressful experience in anyone’s life.

Happy Earth Means Happy Mind: The Connection Between Environmental Health and Mental Health
Let’s talk about The Connection Between Environmental Health and Mental Health. The Earth is our home, and it is our responsibility to take care of it. When we take care of the environment, we are not only doing our part to preserve the natural world for future generations, but we are also taking care of our own mental health.
Written By: Kairavi Anjaria

The environment has a profound impact on our well-being. Studies have shown that exposure to nature can reduce stress and anxiety, improve mood, and increase feelings of well-being. When we are surrounded by greenery, fresh air, and natural beauty, we feel more connected to the world around us and are more likely to experience positive emotions.
On the other hand, living in a polluted, degraded environment can have a negative impact on our mental health. Air pollution, for example, has been linked to depression, anxiety, and even suicide. Our bodies and minds suffer when we are exposed to toxins and pollutants. We become more irritable, stressed, and anxious and may experience physical symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, and respiratory problems.
Climate change is also a major threat to our mental health. The impact of extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and other environmental disasters can lead to trauma, anxiety, and depression. As we continue to see the effects of climate change worsen, it is essential to prioritize our mental health and well-being.
Taking care of the environment can help us take care of our mental health. When we engage in eco-friendly behaviors such as recycling, using renewable energy, and reducing our carbon footprint, we feel a sense of purpose and meaning. We feel like we are doing something positive for the world, and this can boost our mood and sense of well-being.

In addition, spending time in nature can have a therapeutic effect on our mental health. Going for a walk in the woods, spending time at the beach, or simply sitting in a park can help us feel more relaxed, calm, and connected to the world around us. Research has shown that spending time in nature can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, improve cognitive function, and increase feelings of happiness.
Research on The Connection Between Environmental Health and Mental HealthThe idea that the health of the environment and the health of our minds are interconnected is not new. Many studies have shown that there is a direct link between exposure to nature and mental health. For instance, a 2015 study published in the International Journal of Environmental Health Research found that spending time in natural environments, such as parks, forests, and beaches, was associated with lower levels of stress and anxiety and higher levels of well-being.
Another study conducted by researchers at the University of Michigan found that people who lived in areas with more green space had lower levels of symptoms of depression and anxiety compared to those who lived in areas with less green space. This is because exposure to nature can help reduce stress and promote relaxation, which is essential for good mental health.
Furthermore, taking care of the environment can also help us feel more connected to our communities and to the world around us. By engaging in eco-friendly behaviors, we can feel like we are contributing to something larger than ourselves and that our actions positively impact the planet. This can give us a sense of purpose and meaning, which can be essential for maintaining good mental health.
ConclusionsIn conclusion, the health of the environment and the health of our minds are intimately connected. By taking care of the Earth, we can take care of ourselves. We can reduce our exposure to toxins and pollutants, decrease our risk of climate-related mental health issues, and improve our overall sense of well-being. So on this Earth Day, let us all commit to doing our part to protect our planet and, in turn, protect our mental health.
On this Earth Day, it is essential to remember that our actions significantly impact the environment and our mental health. By taking care of the Earth, we can take care of ourselves and ensure that future generations can also enjoy a healthy and sustainable planet. We can do our part by reducing our carbon footprint, using renewable energy, recycling, and advocating for policies that protect the environment. Doing so can improve our overall sense of well-being and contribute to a healthier and happier world for all.

Dr. Krupesh dedicated the entire event to Mrs. Nayna Diwaliben Jethalal and Dr. Shashikant Devkaba Umarshi. One unique aspect of the event is the activation of various global projects to show gratitude to Mother Earth, or as it is called in Sanskrit, Pruthvi (पृथ्वी). These projects aim to raise awareness about our relationship with the planet and encourage individuals to take positive steps towards environmental conservation and sustainability.
By focusing on the theme of Prithvi Maa, Maa Parv 2023 aims to create awareness about the importance of protecting Mother Earth and promoting sustainable living practices. The event is a call to action for individuals and organizations to take up initiatives that contribute to environmental conservation.
