World Mental Health Day, Pandemic, and World #wmhday #mentalhelth @blogchatter @enablingworld

By Jaideep Khanduja @PebbleInWaters
Every year, on 10th of October we observe World Mental Health Day. The purpose of it is to increase awareness and streamline efforts in support of mental health across the globe. We live in an unequal world in various aspects. According to World Health Organization (WHO) the ratio of people suffering from mental health issues is more than 1:10. This pandemic had made situations tougher for those suffering from mental health. Because of lack of physical contact (with other family members, friends, & colleagues), the new reality of working from home, and a sort of complete isolation in many cases has not only impacted seriously the existing cases but has developed new cases exponentially. There is a serious need of highly engaging interactive curative/counseling sessions with Wellness specialists, spiritual/mental health healers, emotional Intelligence/meditation/yoga experts. Facilitators, mediators, initiators, and specialists need to collaborate & synchronize their energies.

“Good mental health is critical to the functioning of society at the best of times… The mental health and wellbeing of whole societies have been severely impacted by this crisis and are a priority to be addressed urgently.” United Nations Policy Brief: COVID-19 and the Need for Action on Mental Health, May 2020.
So, on the occasion of World Mental Health Day 2021, I got an invite from Enabling World to join them on a campaign to build a fairer, healthier workspace and encourage #mentalhealththatwork. It's a kind of way to realize one's #mentalhelth status and find out the best way possible to move ahead with a best condition of mental health. Somehow, I found this bouquet of well-curated program is a right fit for inner assessment and gain of inner strength. These topics given below are rightly suited for current situation:
Coping With Grief & Trauma
Adopting Healthy Habits
Managing Fatigue & Burnout
Befriending Stress
Emotional Balance
Work From Home Fatigue
Happiness - A Frame Of Mind

Conscious Self Care
Mindful Resiliency

Managing Anxiety
Psychological First Aid
Positive Mindset
Mind Traps 
Stress Relaxation Techniques

The detail of each module is given there on their website of which the link is given above. I found these topics quite relevant designed thoughtfully.
