#177 The Importance Of Mental Health Awareness For Men | With Dr Vignesh Devraj

In today’s episode, Dr Vignesh Devraj talks about the importance of creating mental health awareness for men. It is a commonly seen phenomenon that most conversations around physical health, mental health and holistic practices are more popular among women, than men. While women are naturally more conscious about their health, men seem to be missing the call to action. In this episode, Dr Vignesh shares his thoughts on why this is happening and how we can create a change. 
The topics discussed in this episode are: 

The disparity between health consciousness in men and women

Male perspective of Health and Illness

An evolutionary perspective of communication in men and women

Importance of Communication, Vulnerability and Safe Spaces 

The role of upbringing and environment 

Importance of dealing with “inner loneliness” 

Addictions and other unhealthy coping mechanisms 

Connection between mental health and physical health

BALANCE THE MIGHTY VATA - ONLINE COURSE NOW AVAILABLE 
What makes Ayurveda unique in its treatment approach is its practical wisdom on the concept of Vata. Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery. 
Recently I have recorded a workshop on - Balancing The Mighty Vata which has over 6 hrs of content, with notes filled with practical inputs that can be integrated into our life.
