Supporting loved ones in high-pressure situations, as Ritika Sajdeh does for Rohit Sharma, highlights the importance of emotional resilience. Neha Cadabam, Senior Psychologist and Executive Director at Cadabams Hospitals and Mindtalk, explains that gestures like crossing one’s fingers play a psychological role beyond superstition. This simple action serves as a coping mechanism to manage stress and uncertainty, fostering a sense of hope and control. Experts also suggest that open communication and mindfulness techniques, like grounding exercises and affirmations, can help individuals navigate challenging moments effectively. Such strategies not only ease personal anxiety but also promote mutual understanding and strength in relationships.
