For far too long has the gentler gender in our midst been oppressed and sidelined, and we\u2019ve been on a mission ever since our inception to correct that to what extent we can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\">Ours is an ongoing effort, and it probably will never be complete in our lifetime. We will only keep striving, and taking every step we can to contribute to a legacy we can be proud of when we look back. And our Femm\u00e9 programme is just another step in that direction. The idea behind it is to provide a support system, a collective of consciousnesses, to help what is a major part of our workforce assume the best possible position to excel and achieve happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\">The cover of our internal magazine, <em>Pulse<\/em>, features <a href=\"https:\/\/chchealthwatch.com\/blog\/rana-and-jhalana\/\">my trip to the wild<\/a>. In these times of ongoing military aggression, after a raging pandemic for the best part of two years wasn\u2019t sufficient, a retreat to Nature is the best possible balm, and I\u2019m truly glad I got to do something that I really love. It was a reminder of the simplicity of Nature, the lack of wanton killing, the absence of politicking, of manipulative power struggles. It was a mirror to how far away humanity has gone from how Nature conducts her affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\">Over the coming months I certainly intend to do it more often, but if the story inspires you too to spend what time you can in the sanctuary of Nature, my effort of penning the photo story would be accomplished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/chc.logic-x.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Blog-images-17-1024x683-1.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5802\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chc.logic-x.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Blog-images-17-1024x683-1.webp 1024w, https:\/\/chc.logic-x.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Blog-images-17-1024x683-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/chc.logic-x.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Blog-images-17-1024x683-1-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Life is unpredictable, fragile, ephemeral and precious, and it often behaves so as to serve us a stark reminder of these traits.
