KalyanMitra – Life Journey – A Look Back at Our Journey
Join us for a deeply reflective session where KalyanaMitra staff embarked on a ‘Life Journey’ through the metaphor of a river. Watch as they embraced their inner artists, drawing their personal ‘rivers of life’ and exploring profound questions about moments of turbulence, calm, big lakes, and even dams blocking their flow.

Discover the rich, honest insights shared, from reconnecting with oneself and gaining a broader perspective to reflecting on gratitude, childhood memories, and even new intentions like planting trees for nature.
