    Great talk. Interesting how so many people all around the world totally forgot about the importante of air. Clearly the people in power don’t really care about us.

    Nice talk, I was feeling that I need to go to psychologist because I was not feeling well mentaly but after listening this I realized, I am not following any component of NEWSTART. Thank you for guidance 🙏 ❤️



  16. Tbonedbeef on August 30, 2022 at 6:16 am

    I’m having problems as a person to be normal in this pandemic. let’s just say my brain is melting and it’s getting worse by each day and now it’s reached the point of being down bad (if yk what being down bad means)



  17. IF NOT NOW THEN WHEN ? on August 30, 2022 at 6:16 am

    If I can suggest something is a book “Self observation “by Ted Hawk.Fascinating



  18. Mithsara Dasanayake on August 30, 2022 at 6:16 am

    Discussion about mental health conditions like ptsd should be openly available to everyone



  19. Estelle Baker on August 30, 2022 at 6:19 am

    Sounds like the Seventh-day Adventist Health Message. Amen to NEWSTART



  20. M D on August 30, 2022 at 6:19 am

    A lot of what he is saying is not as much causation as corelation. For example, meeting with loved ones at least four times a month isn’t a causation it’s about the correlation between the frame of mind of prioritizing what is important and ensuring that you adhere to it.



  21. Karen schulz on August 30, 2022 at 6:21 am

    How about a gratitude practice!

    caveat:

    The introduction of vehicles and noise pollution dramatically increased mental illness. Even worse than the noise of vehicles themselves is the reversing bleeping alarms which cause anxiety/stress/tension attacking the central nervous system leading to mental illness and physical illness. Until we reduce these NEEDLESS noise pollutants we will not have optimal mental health.



  42. Shelton Oday on August 30, 2022 at 6:43 am

    Mental health and anxiety issues have increased a lot these days and people are so prone to these, and it’s better to opt for natural and holistic way, consulting Planet Ayurveda’s team of doctors would help a lot.
