SINGAPORE, Feb 28, 2024 - (ACN Newswire) - Renowned mental wellness expert and global peace ambassador Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar will conduct an immersive Mental Health Masterclass to advance strategies and techniques for enhanced mental wellness on 24 March 2024. The event is expected to attract full capacity at The Theatre at Mediacorp.
Gurudev’s commitment to advance mental health is the core of the Art of Living Foundation (AOLF), the non-profit organisation he founded in 1981. The AOLF has taught evidence-based programmes to promote mental wellness for 41 years. Its powerful proprietary Sudarshan Kriya technique, supported by published research has helped millions worldwide.
Gurudev is a keynote speaker at global forums including United Nations, UNESCO and World Economic Forum. At the European Parliament Think Tank conference in June 2023, he emphasised the urgency for governments to address global mental health issues, “Mental health is one of the greatest challenges the world is facing today. Whether it is in developing or developed countries, in war or peace zones, it is an issue that affects the entire world”. Referencing the World Health Organisation’s World Health Report 2022 findings of “one in every three individuals in the world suffering from anxiety and depression”, he highlighted mental health and loneliness as the “silent epidemics”.
Gurudev’s holistic programme, with emphasis on treatment and preventive care aligns with Singapore’s national mental health and well-being strategy.
