July 03, 2024#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.

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
