Mind – your own business: Maintaining our sanity in times of a pandemic

Insights on how to recognise the potential challenges that we could be dealing with due to the lockdown and the best practices to avoid them were also discussed. We had 200+ attendees from 8 countries like India, UAE, USA, UK, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Portugal and Sri Lanka. The speakers for the discussion included:

  • Dr Pratima Murthy, Head of Department – Psychiatry, NIMHANS, Bengaluru
  • Dr Shefali Batra, Founder & CEO, Innerhour and Mindframes
  • Smriti Joshi, Chief Psychologist, Wysa

Watch this video to get tips to deal with loneliness, anxiety and stress around safety of family members, job security, uncertain markets and completion of targets and deadlines.
