THE MAGIC OF GOA

Image
All our lives are defined by a pursuit of love, freedom and adventure and despite our differences, we have at least that in common. As these emotions are relative to our state of mind, there’s a number of things that we can do to ensure that we are able to enjoy wholesome and fulfilling experiences that add meaning to our life. While the rush and the adrenaline of city life works for some, for those who wish to slow down and interact with nature; an escape to a land of happiness and health awaits. Being a paradise of verdant nature, sumptuous food and golden sands, Goa has always posed as the perfect vacation destination. Goa allows us to open up our minds and look beyond what we immediately see so that we can take pleasure in the simple things in life. Time spent here enables us to ask questions, seek and find answers and gradually, our outlook on life evolves into a reflection of all that we see around us. The fulfilling feeling of the balmy Goan sea breeze and the sand in your feet.

NEGOTIATING THE NEW YEAR

 Your life does not get better by chance. It gets better by change” - Jim Rohn Named after the Roman God Janus, the month of January symbolises new beginnings and gateways to a fresh start. As we collect our thoughts and pave the way for all that 2021 brings with it, let’s prepare ourselves to realise our personal versions of success using the knowledge and resources that 2020 equipped us with. While resolutions have commonly defined New Year’s Day, insights from the previous year have revealed a new approach this time around. Perhaps it’s time to emphasise good practices and healthy habits that characterise who we are as individuals and also who we are as a part of a community. Together, let’s put in our best every day to help create new improved realities for us all. At Vianaar , we wish to enable our community and all those who we interact with to take a step back, appreciate and savour the delicate details of life and revitalise their connection with nature . To help make this a po

PEOPLE; THE PILLARS OF OUR FOUNDATION

There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.” - Margaret J. Wheatly As the year 2020 draws to a close, we realise the worth of the lessons we’ve learnt from these difficult and testing times. With the opportunity to slow down, each of us has been able to evaluate and identify our priorities, truly understand what matters and whom we relate to. The emergence of these aspects of our personality have brought us closer together with the vision of working collaboratively towards a year that’s bigger and better. At Vianaar , we believe that it is our relationships that accurately define who we are. The people we regularly associate and communicate with, are the people who will help us to actualize our goals as an organization. As the personality of each individual collectively constitutes the character of their community, every team member at Vianaar maintains a culture of respect for the environment and for one another. Simultaneously, we aspire to

TREE MATTERS

A famous mural by the artist Gustav Klimt paints the tree as the force behind all life and growth. It’s no surprise that this renowned work of art, alongside numerous theologies, philosophies, and mythologies uses the tree as an important symbol. After all, they give us shade, shelter, and stories; all of the things that make life happier and healthier. With a deep-rooted interest in the environment, the team at Vianaar believes that planting trees gives birth to new hope and tree transplantation helps keep that hope alive. To successfully transplant a tree, one needs to be equipped with the necessary technical know-how. The process of tree transplantation involves checking whether a tree is healthy enough to be moved and then pruning the roots to get it ready. This delicate but purposeful technique goes hand in hand with the right tools and a lot of effort. Furthermore, a tree that has been uprooted needs to be moved to its new home within an hour. After it is replanted, biochemicals
