About

Salam, I am back again with another exciting workshop in the series, The Amaltas Hour. This time it will be about Bonsai and alongside that, we will also learn about a new book "When the body says no" by Dr. Gabor Maté. This book has won several awards and Dr. Mate himself is a renowned physician whose marvellous insights into the links between body and mind open thinking avenues which are not only important for experts and professionals to take into account but are also equally palatable and beneficial for a layperson like myself. After our workshop, we will review the Seven A's of Healing suggested by Dr. Mate and we can better understand and incorporate them in our lives by embracing gardening as a lifestyle. Thanks again to Dr. Sue Stuart-smith for making the idea of gardening as a form of therapy comprehensible to us in the first place. P.S. A hidden reason behind selecting Dr. Mate's book this time was to introduce ourselves to him so that we may, also, intriguingly be led to learn about his unique family background and his powerful stance on the unfortunate crisis that a single nation-state's whim is causing and which is backed by most of the Global North, sadly.
