Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], May 29: Sprihaa Centre for Psychological Wellness and Holistic Healing, founded by Dr. Shalini Poddar, is making significant mental and emotional health strides. Sprihaa, which means ‘desires,’ embodies the belief that fulfilling one’s desires is essential to living a meaningful and emotionally fulfilling life. Dr. Poddar has helped numerous individuals heal from conditions like paralysis and cancer by addressing self-limiting subconscious blocks. The centre is dedicated to addressing the deep-rooted emotional issues that often manifest as physical ailments, using scientifically validated alternative healing methods.
Dr. Shalini Poddar’s journey to founding Sprihaa is both inspiring and transformative. Growing up in Kolkata, she was deeply influenced by the city’s vibrant culture and natural beauty. This early connection to her surroundings sparked a lifelong curiosity about the mysteries of existence and the human condition.
At the age of 19, Dr Shalini began volunteering with marginalised communities, including children of sex workers and victims of child labour. This experience revealed the profound impact of trauma on individuals and society, steering her towards a career in psychology. She pursued advanced degrees at prestigious institutions such as UC Berkeley and Calcutta University, gaining a solid understanding of traditional psychological approaches.
