Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ramayana Vishwavidyalaya, Ayodhya, organized a Mental Health Awareness Session under the observance of World Mental Health Day and the 'Seva Sankalp Abhiyan'. The programme aimed to promote mental well-being among youth, raise awareness about stress management, and encourage students to seek professional support for mental health concerns.
During the session, Dr. Alok Mandarshan delivered an expert lecture on mental health challenges faced by young people, particularly academic stress, lifestyle pressures and digital addiction. He highlighted the importance of meditation and adequate sleep in maintaining psychological well-being and discussed the scientific assessment of brain activity using electroencephalography (EEG). An interactive question-and-answer session followed, in which students and NSS volunteers raised questions on depression, insomnia and other mental health concerns.
A major highlight was an impactful street play staged by NSS volunteers under the direction of Ms. Jyotsna Bhardwaj. The performance conveyed the importance of emotional well-being, encouraged open conversations about mental health and sought to eliminate the stigma associated with psychological difficulties.
The programme concluded with a collective mental health pledge and a group meditation session led by Mr. Praveen Tyagi. The vote of thanks was delivered by Ms. Veena Pandey and Dr. Ram Lakhan Singh, who acknowledged the contributions of the keynote speaker, organizers, faculty members and NSS volunteers.
The event strengthened awareness of mental health and encouraged students to adopt healthy practices for managing stress and maintaining emotional balance. Through expert guidance, interactive discussion, meditation and a socially impactful street play, the initiative reinforced the university's commitment to student well-being, community service and the objectives of the 'Seva Sankalp Abhiyan'.
