When I, Dr. Chakrabarti, learned about bonsai care, I instantly thought of it as a beautiful skill for elderly women. Looking after bonsai trees requires gentle daily attention, patience, and creativity. This quiet yet engaging routine can keep the mind active, help delay the onset of dementia, and bring immense joy.
It also opens new opportunities to learn continuously by exploring online resources, exchanging advice with fellow enthusiasts, and observing how each plant responds with time.
Ms. Mukherjee’s love for bonsai beautifully demonstrates how a small tree can nurture not only greenery but also curiosity, positivity, and mental strength. Through her example, she encourages others to stay mentally sharp by learning and caring for something living.
A Modern Inspiration
Ms. Mukherjee reminds us that health is not just the absence of disease but the harmony of body, mind, and purpose. Her lifestyle shows that prevention, creativity, and continuous learning can together create a life full of energy and hope. She stands as a role model for women everywhere who wish to age gracefully, stay alert, and keep their spirits in bloom.
✍🏽 This is my Tribute to her.
It is an honor to celebrate her journey and her message that health, creativity, and learning are lifelong companions.
Regards
Dr Manas Chakrabarti
