Activ8Me Launches its unique nutritional foods platform

A little while ago, I updated you all on an event I attended regarding spreading awareness about Millets. Health food has gained a lot of traction off late but witnessing people in action taking initiatives is a great feeling. Continuing with the remain healthy spirit, I recently got acquainted with the team at Activ8Me who have launched an online and offline campaign to promote healthy foods.


Activ8Me is a unique platform which has been developed to serve niche health and nutrition based foods and drinks across India. I specifically liked their offline approach. Herein they plan to serve people through healthy vending machines. At the launch, Mandira Bedi unveiled the machine which looks quite impressive. These machines can be placed in areas like gyms, offices, entertainment complexes etc.

Activ8Me's machine has a wide variety of hand-picked, nutritionally beneficial snacking and drinking items. These are not only fulfilling to the hungering stomach but also a bliss for your soul. The vending machine can easily take currency notes, plastic cards and top - up cards.

The guests at the launch included actress and model, Mandira Bedi who spoke about the need to stay healthy and fit. Vinay Sangwan is a Kettle Bell professional who shared his experiences on a healthy lifestyle. Himanshu Malhotra is a famous actor and Dr. Vaibhav Garg, a certified nutritionist also shared insights on eating the right food. Snacking is something which incorporates the maximum junk food we eat. If we opt for healthy snacks, it is not only nutritionally advantageous but also gives us the feeling of being full.

The only thing I felt missing from the product line up was tea and to some extent, millets. Let's hope as they expand their product line, Activ8Me will get more quality brands on board including tea ones.
it is creating a revolution of sorts by passionately bringing health food alternatives under one umbrella.

Learning from Gardening

While composing status messages, just for fun, I simply jot down anything random that comes to my mind at the moment. Here is the latest FB message i posted few seconds ago. Tushar Mangl learns a lot from his gardening routine. Even when his plants die, he simply feels bad and then goes about to plan for new plants. Mostly because an empty space does not look that good. That is life for you. People will always go away from your life, at one point or another. But you cannot always leave the places vacan t. New plants have to be placed. Optimism has to exist for new flowers to bloom, new leaves to grow. Now, FB only gives me 422 characters to say my point. But my dear blogger, a companion of several years gives me much better platform to elaborate my thoughts. You see, in a flower bed I maintain near stairs of my house I had planted bougainvillea plants on either sides of the bed. As fate would have it, and given my nature of getting too attached to livi...

A suggestion to break the loop of guilt, isolation, and emotional burnout?

Caught in a guilt spiral, isolating quietly, and wondering why rest doesn’t heal you? You’re not lazy—you’re carrying layers of unprocessed emotion and spiritual exhaustion. This is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reset. Let’s explore why you still feel stuck despite good intentions, and discover rituals, reflections, and real reconnection to help you come home to yourself. First Published on 20/06/2008 14:30 Second edition Published on 04/07/2025 12:51 Why do you keep spiraling despite good intentions? Let me ask you this. Have you ever written out a self-care plan so perfectly, maybe in a brand-new notebook—drink more water, meditate, go to therapy—and yet by day three you’re numbly binge-scrolling, wondering what’s broken now ? Yeah. Same. We don’t spiral because we’re undisciplined or lazy. We spiral because the emotional weight we’re carrying goes deeper than we admit. It's not about a missed workout or failing to reply to that one text. It's the inner tug-of...

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...
