Creating awareness on mental health and promoting mental wellbeing is a popular topic after lockdown. Depression is the most common form of mental illnesses.
Shekhar Kapur, A.R. Rahman and life coach Shayamal Vallabhjee have come together to create awareness on this topic. The latter recently released his book ‘Breathe Believe Balance’ which puts a lot of emphasis on mental health after lockdown.
He plans to engage in more collaborations with celebrities and says, “We (Shekhar Kapur, A.R. Rahman and I) plan to bring together an army of local and international celebs and teachers. Mental health is only one of many topics which we plan to put the focus on. Our vision is big and we are confident that our curated platform is going to be the destination for anyone interested in becoming a better version of themselves. It was really just serendipity. I had an idea about helping other people discover themselves through science and spirituality. I wanted it to start off as a show which as called ‘In Pursuit of Balance’. This quickly morphed into micro content and them we learnt that India desperately needs a voice it can trust in the field of personal growth and mastery. A voice that isn’t necessarily linked to a religious organisation and one that applies to the rational mind. This was what we set out to build – a community of like minded people invested in personal growth.”
