Advocacy

Advocating good mental health and mindfulness through media and events.

“For as long as space endures,

And for as long as living beings remain,

Until then may I, too, abide,

To dispel the misery of the world.”

By Shantideva, 8th century CE

Living With A Black Dog

What is it like to live with a black dog, a metaphor for depression? Spoke to brave souls battling (and recovering from) mental health conditions, and how Shell and how after the MH370 tragedy, Malaysia Airlines, are supporting their employees’ wellbeing. Ends with a piece on Joker, the movie that kept me on the edge of my seat. Listen here #BFMSpotlight #depression #bipolar

Removing traces of trauma is not easy. Yet in the midst of throes, one can create something so beautiful. In between her music, British writer, artist and musician Sanchita Islam opens up about her life. Ends with a reading of her poem Blue Eyes. Listen here #BFMSpotlight #comorbidities
