Let's admit it. At some point in our lives, mental health has affected us, either personally, or by proxy, when we've seen our loved ones suffer. And yet, it is among the least discussed subjects in our social circle. A new talk by A Storied Mind, a non-profit organisation focused on promoting mental health, is hoping to start a dialogue on it. "We've always emphasised the importance of knowledge about mental wellness and illnesses to pave the path towards good mental health," says Khushi Parikh, director, A Storied Mind. "It's just like an extremely interesting and interactive psychology lecture, without being boring, and with food [thrown in]."

The two speakers at the session are Sara Ansari, a neuro-physiotherapist, and Urveez Kakalia, a counselling psychologist. They'll be discussing the common signs of mental illness, its impact, organisational and personal risk factors contributing to those illnesses, and developing the ability to demonstrate the non-judgmental communication skills needed to support a suffering soul.
