Anxiety is not just stress, it can ruin lives, says psychologist

Licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Shameena Haniff is urging people to pay attention to the hidden signs of anxiety before it spirals into panic attacks, broken relationships, burnout, and deeper mental health struggles. Anxiety is often dismissed as nervousness, stress, or simply “having a lot on your mind.” But according to licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Shameena Haniff, the reality is far more serious and far more common than many people are willing to admit....

Psychologist urges people to seek help for depression

Depression does not always announce itself in dramatic ways. Sometimes, it slips quietly into a person’s life, taking away the things they once loved, dulling their emotions, isolating them from family and friends, and convincing them that silence is easier than asking for help. That is the message licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Shameena Haniff is hoping more people understand as she speaks out on one of the most common, but often misunderstood, mental health conditions affecting society....

‘Knowledge is the engine’ – UG’s chancellor wants the university to drive Guyana’s future

When Sir Ronald Sanders was installed as Chancellor of the University of Guyana in February, he did more than accept one of the country’s most prestigious academic offices. He delivered a challenge to the nation’s premier tertiary institution: step out of the margins, embrace the moment, and help shape Guyana’s future. For Sanders, the role of the university is not ceremonial, abstract, or confined to lecture rooms and graduation gowns....

Guyana’s National Library: Preserving Guyanese History Since 1909

For generations, libraries have played a monumental role in documenting and preserving history through books, periodicals such as magazines and newsletters, and other valuable records of human thought and experience.

Colours, culture and unity: How Phagwah has evolved over the years

The vibrant colours, lively singing, and joyful gatherings that define Phagwah in Guyana today are the result of centuries of cultural evolution. While the festival, known globally as Holi, has grown into an international celebration embraced by people of all backgrounds, its spiritual foundation remains deeply rooted in Hindu philosophy, tradition, and the timeless message of unity. According to Hindu priest Pandit Aditya Persaud, Phagwah is far more than a colourful festival....

Dripping with words that combine beautifully, Always in awe in the spotlight by the masses. Yet everything created is not in a local sense. Everything is me, but not the me they want. I am from the country that "homed" El Dorado. Born into the land of many waters. I have the culture of six oozing through my veins. I am Caribbean....

The dawn of time becomes sunset, As the last grain of sand falls from the hourglass. The curtains closed for the masterpiece, Handcrafted by the Gods. The string of faith forever bound, The memories encased in eternal hearts. The bonds intertwine from the first breath, Now transcends to a different dimension with the last breath. The elements return to the origin,...

Wine Drunk

The slight sourness that lingers after the first sip, Reminds me of the end of the conversation; Our bodies betrayed us, took us to slumber. Leaving the lingering thoughts of "what would be of tomorrow?". After a few sips the sourness is no more. Waking up to an established routine taste. The words flow to satisfy the thirst for fimilarity....
