The State of Mental Illness in 2025
In this special World Mental Health Day stream, Dr. K explores why mental illness continues to rise even as awareness, therapy, and neuroscience have advanced. He connects the dots between modern lifestyles, constant stimulation, and a growing disconnection from the body. Using insights from both Western psychiatry and Vedic psychology, Dr. K explains how anxiety, burnout, and attention issues are symptoms of a deeper imbalance. The conversation blends brain science with practical tools for rewiring habits and developing real resilience.
Topics include:
- Why mental health is declining despite more treatment options
- How technology and constant stimulation mimic ADHD symptoms
- The role of panic, urgency, and emotional reactivity in shaping attention
- Practical steps for retraining motivation through small, low-pressure actions
- Understanding “phantom panic” and how to regulate the nervous system
- The link between breath, CO₂ balance, and anxiety
- How diet and the gut–brain connection influence mood
- Combining therapy, medication, and mind–body practices
- Meditation as a long-term way to build focus and emotional stability
