A Mental Health Pandemic
Over 300 UK healthcare workers attempted suicide last year. An April 2021 paper showed that as many as 43% of frontline workers are experiencing significant levels of anxiety.
The growing concerns about COVID-19 cases spiking further this winter in the UK are causing widespread anxiety across the country.
A Technology for Wellbeing
Sadhguru (Yogi, Visionary, NYT bestselling author) has been offering online mental and physical wellbeing support through scientifically proven programmes and his Youtube channel – which has just crossed 1 billion views.
His support is offered online through ‘technologies for wellbeing’ involving simple but powerful yoga and meditation practices. From frontline NHS doctors to teachers to Deliveroo drivers, Sadhguru’s practices are sparking a silent revolution of mental health transformation in the UK.
With thousands taking up these practices, leading mental health experts from the UK, including Dr Adrian J B James (President, Royal College of Psychiatrists), are now discussing solutions to the mental health pandemic with Sadhguru.
Sadhguru has been an influential voice at major global forums including the United Nations and the World Economic Forum. He is regularly invited to speak at leading educational institutions including Harvard, Yale, Oxford, Stanford, Wharton and MIT.
