Delhi Public School (DPS) Nasik, Lava Nagpur and Varanasi celebrated Mother’s Day in an innovative way. A webinar – Super Moms = Happy Families, was organised as part of the initiative ‘Breaking Barriers’, on Sunday, May 10, 2020.

Gouri Chavan, Renu Panicker, Sonali Dabak and Shraddha Akula from Nasik and Nikita Bembi and Dr. Neha Rahate from Nagpur were the panelists.

The focus of the webinar was to share tips that would help mothers deal with COVID-19 blues. The extended lockdown has thrust many new roles and responsibilities on mothers. They are grappling with house chores, working from home, children’s online classes, financial uncertainties and so much more.

The panelists spoke about their own experiences and struggles and shared strategies that work for them. Self-care, regular physical exercise, meditation and mindfulness, taking one day at a time, finding beauty in the ordinary, being your own cheerleader, adapting and accepting the new normal, were a few suggestions given by the dynamic panelists.

Mothers are like glue; they hold the family together all adversities. ‘A Super Mom is someone who sees the best in her kids even when they drive her crazy.’
