World mental health day- free online session by Dr. Anjali Chhabria
In 2017, the President of India, Ram Nath Kovind asserted that India was “facing a possible mental health epidemic”. A study revealed that in the same year, 14% of India’s population suffered from mental health ailments, including 45.7 million suffering from depressive disorders and 49 million from anxiety disorders.
As the world is being torn apart between virtues and vice, individuals are facing every day challenges to remain sane and take stress free decisions. This germ of stress gets implanted from childhood which bears poisonous fruits in terms of health problems, behavioral inconsistencies, and other problems. Parisar Asha, strongly believes that inward achievement changes the outer reality and this can be achieved by training the minds from the early age. Every year on 10th Oct we observe World Mental Health Day to create awareness about fostering positive mental health.
This year we are honoured to have Dr. Anjali Chhabria, Psychiatrist and Psychotherapist as our esteemed speaker to enlighten us about fostering positive mental health.
