It is amazing to watch our magazine grow so much. Glint has always been a huge part of our lives here at K J Somaiya College of Physiotherapy. We embarked on a beautiful journey with Glint, which began in 2016 and here we are now, five years later, in 2021. The years almost seem to have gone by in the blink of an eye. So much has changed, we’ve lived through an entire pandemic. But there are some things which never change.

And for us, that constant is Glint, which has only grown, and blossomed since its conception.

The theme for this year’s Glint Magazine is “Transforming Lifestyle”. Because the Covid19 pandemic has changed us all, in ways we never could’ve imagined in our wildest dreams. Because the world as we know it has forever changed. Because the implications of being a physiotherapist and a health care worker have forever changed. And hence we must change too, for the tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming. So we’ve transformed our lifestyles, we’re ready to grow, we’re amped up, we’re ready to face any challenges that life throws our way, head on. We are expecting the unexpected, because all of us have learnt our lessons now, and we’re prepared to go further from here, with compassion and grace.

Somaiya is full of stars, all shining bright, showing each other the way when lost. And Glint gives every one of our stars the opportunity to showcase their unique light.

We bring you our magazine, Glint 2021: Transforming Lifestyles, we hope you enjoy it, we hope it inspires you in all the right ways.
