New Delhi, 30th September 2024: In the increasingly competitive world of education, where students often grapple with academic, social, and emotional pressures, Ramagya School Noida Extension has emerged as a pioneer in prioritizing mental well-being alongside academic success. By weaving the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita and the practice of Transcendental Meditation (TM) into its value-based education curriculum, the school ensures that students are equipped to handle life’s challenges with resilience, wisdom, and inner peace.
At the core of Ramagya’s mental health program is the Geeta Path, which is integrated into daily lessons to instill timeless values of strength, empathy, and mindfulness. Along with this, the practice of Dhyana (meditation) is incorporated, where students engage in TM for 10 minutes twice a day. This daily practice fosters mental clarity, reduces stress, and enhances emotional regulation, ultimately helping students remain grounded in the midst of academic and personal challenges. By focusing on internal well-being, students are empowered to achieve their full potential, both academically and personally.
Holistic Programs to Strengthen Emotional Intelligence
Ramagya School goes beyond traditional classroom learning, offering a series of activities that holistically nurture students’ emotional, intellectual, and psychological well-being. The Know Your Brain initiative helps students understand how their mind functions, equipping them with tools to manage anxiety and stress more effectively. Baal Saathee, another pioneering program, promotes the balance of mind, body, and soul, helping students cultivate a healthy lifestyle that blends academics with emotional wellness.
For younger students, the school conducts engaging story sessions based on the Panchatantra, a revered collection of ancient Indian animal fables. These stories impart invaluable life lessons, fostering leadership, empathy, and moral values that help students navigate everyday life with wisdom and compassion. By integrating these initiatives, Ramagya is laying a strong foundation for emotional intelligence from an early age.
Creating a Safe Space for Mental Wellness
Recognizing that today’s challenges extend beyond school walls, Ramagya School also provides a strong support system for students and parents alike. The school regularly organizes webinars addressing issues such as anxiety, academic pressure, and the emotional toll of the pandemic. These interactive sessions create an open dialogue, offering practical advice to students and parents on how to tackle stressors with a positive mindset. Moreover, the school’s counseling team maintains ongoing communication with families, ensuring that no student is left unsupported.
A Future Built on Mindfulness and Balance
As students continue to face growing demands from both academics and society, Ramagya School Noida Extension remains committed to nurturing their mental health through proactive initiatives. By combining ancient wisdom with modern educational practices, the school is creating a generation of students who are not only academically proficient but emotionally balanced and resilient.
In the words of Principal Priyanka Singh, “At Ramagya, we believe that success comes not from academic achievements alone, but from a well-rounded individual who understands the importance of inner peace and mental well-being.”
This holistic approach ensures that every student leaves with more than just knowledge – they leave with the life skills and emotional resilience to lead fulfilling, purposeful lives.
