A choice you won't
mind

play not only a corrective role but also a supportive one as
counsellors in fields ranging from fitness and sports to education,

discipline of psychology — said to be as old as human civilisation
itself - has become all the more relevant today. The modern era
might have made our life convenient, but it has also brought
cut-throat competition and intense consumerism. Life has become
much faster, demanding and stressful. Consequently, more and more
people have become susceptible to anxiety, depression, hypertension,
maladjustment and other behavioural disorders.

Combining
a life of challenges with adventure is that of the men in white, the
Indian Coast Guard. With India’s vast 7,000 km coastline there is
