Almost six months ago, NRF authors decided that they needed to be ‘heard’ too. Not just by their patients or colleagues, but by the community in general. A series of good quality professional narratives that went unnoticed only because they were not getting published, could not be a deterrent. After all, we were not just qualified professionals but also experienced ‘hands’ working in the field of rehabilitation for many years.

Then came the discussion on the ‘name’. NeuroConnect existed as NRF’s online awareness platform – a runaway hit from Episode 1. We needed to ponder over another cognate. An elegant logo was designed; backdrop modified just a little; feel and spirit of NeuroConnect was retained yet we had something new ; NEUROVOICE was born thus on 30 August 2025.

Author: Jhilmil Rathore (Student Volunteer) | 10th January, 2026 Slow living today has turned into an aesthetic, a trend, something people “schedule” into their lives. But if you strip away all the curated imagery and the performative activities—baking, reading, pottery, journaling—slow living is nothing more than having the space to sit with yourself and your

Author: Jhilmil Rathore (Student Volunteer) | 3rd January, 2026 A terrace is one of the most open spaces in an Indian home, yet it ends up holding the most. It absorbs what the house cannot—truths that don’t fit inside small rooms, emotions that feel too loud for shared walls, and parts of ourselves that have

Author: Dr Monika (HOD Occupational Therapy and Joint Head Administration, NRF) | 27th December, 2025 Today, was special. I taught a student of Occupational Therapy. It was special in many ways because after years I did something that I thought I would always do, every day for the rest of my life. So, why did

Author: Jhilmil Rathore (Student Volunteer) | 20th December 2025 The graduation photos look like a promise. Everyone in a neat line, tassels caught mid-swing, faces lit with that strange, exhausted joy but except I felt the lack of it. There’s a particular kind of terror that arrives after you cross that stage. It’s unlike what
