At the invitation of FICCI FLO Siliguri, Dr. Bhavna Barmi led an emotional wellness session that brought together over forty women entrepreneurs and professionals for an afternoon of reflection and renewal. The session created a safe, supportive space for members to step back from daily pressures and reconnect with their inner strength.

Dr. Bhavna guided participants through practical tools for de-stressing, building resilience, and cultivating emotional balance. Her engaging style combined real-life insights with mindfulness techniques, offering women tangible strategies to navigate both personal and professional challenges with greater clarity. She emphasized that empowered living begins with inner alignment, and that self-care is not a luxury but a foundation for sustained success.

What unfolded was more than a workshop. It became a pause, a collective breath, and a reminder of the importance of tending to one’s own well-being. The room resonated with candid conversations, moments of release, and a shared commitment to carry the practices forward.

Participants left inspired, lighter, and more connected to themselves and each other, with many calling it a turning point in how they approach their mental and emotional health. The experience reinforced the value of emotional wellness in leadership and everyday decision-making.
