[02:52] – How do you define mental wellness? What is its importance in today’s world?
- Mental wellness is the ability to feel good about everything around oneself.
- In the book, I have broken it down into five adjectives: being sad, lonely, stressed (which individuals aim to reduce), and being happy and having peace of mind (which they strive to increase).
[11:16] – What are some systemic challenges in the mental health ecosystem and how can these be addressed?
- The first challenge is a stigma as people don’t want to talk about their mental health.
- The second challenge is the availability of support.
- The third is that people don’t want to take support unless they get into acute situations.
[20:17] – How can individuals build resilience against mental health?
- By identifying and understanding their coping mechanisms.
- Recognising these mechanisms and actively working on them allows individuals to take control and fine-tune their responses to stressors.
