Her Sphere

by: Asti Hayan Educated  by Tara Westover “To admit uncertainty is to admit to weakness, to powerlessness, and to believe in yourself despite both. It is a frailty, but in this frailty there is a strength: the conviction to live in your own mind, and not in someone else’s.” Educated is a memoir about the struggle for self-discovery. Tara was raised in a survivalist family who didn't believe in the establishment including the government, health and education system. She never went to school nor hospital until she turned 17. Tara educated herself and she taught herself enough to get into Brigham Young University. Her upbringing coming from a particularly unusual family brought her to see education as a great mechanism of self-invention.

  Have you ever thought to yourself that you’re not deserving of something? Perhaps good grades, a job offer, or even a promotion? Or maybe, when something good goes your way, you become skeptical and suspect that it’s too good to be true. If yes, then you are showing signs of self-sabotage. Self-sabotage is a common phenomenon, it happens to us all. Self-sabotage is when we consciously or unconsciously disrupt our success and well-being – mentally, physically, emotionally, socially, or even spiritually. Naturally, self-sabotage is a defense mechanism. Our brains are wired to avoid taking risks or doing something uncomfortable. When we step out of our comfort zone, a signal in our brain sends a warning to our bodies that we may be in danger or in a difficult situation. This signaling might not be able to differentiate what kind of discomfort we’re facing – whether being challenged to a new role in our work or running away from danger, so we run away from it altogether. For some peo...

  Jakarta, 24 Maret 2023 - Salah satu masalah kesehatan yang tergolong tinggi di Indonesia adalah masalah stunting. Stunting merupakan kondisi di mana seorang anak gagal tumbuh dalam perkembangannya. Menurut data dari World Health Organization (WHO), kasus stunting global telah meningkat sebesar 21,3% sepanjang tahun 2020. Saat ini, lebih dari dua juta anak menderita gizi buruk dan lebih dari tujuh juta anak di bawah usia 5 tahun mengalami stunting. Data ini menunjukkan bahwa penanganan kondisi stunting perlu lebih digencarkan di masyarakat. Sebagai bentuk penurunan angka stunting di Indonesia, Campaign.com melakukan rangkaian kampanye #PahlawanMasaDepan, mulai dari mengadakan kompetisi memasak di Instagram, menyelenggarakan kampanye sosial di aplikasi Campaign #ForChange, hingga penyuluhan pencegahan stunting di RSUD Kebayoran Baru pada Selasa (21/03) lalu. Sebanyak 50 warga mendapat penyuluhan seputar stunting, serta pentingnya pemenuhan gizi ibu dan anak. Saat ini, banyak angg...

  by: Endah Pramesti We were created as human beings with thoughts and emotions, so we are sentient beings. Each of us must have felt sad, happy, angry, and so on as a form of emotion that arises. A fun fact is that we will always need a space to vent all the emotions that arise, we usually call it a coping mechanism. Well, everyone's coping mechanism certainly varies, the most extreme is to endanger yourself in order to feel safe. The emotions themselves are either positive or negative, and these are mostly formed by the environment around us, influencing our thoughts. Therefore, it is very important to be able to control them. You really need to know that in this world there are things that we can control, and things that are beyond our control. We just need to accept and be aware of these emotions, because they are there to be felt, and also what we need to stay away from is thinking about what people think about us. If you care about what others think, you will always depend on...
