Emerging research reveals that air pollution not only harms the respiratory and cardiovascular systems but also significantly affects brain function, mental health, and cognitive abilities. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), a staggering 99% of the global population faces exposure to dangerous levels of air pollution, which means its detrimental effects on mental cognition could be widespread.

Solutions to protect mental health during high pollution days:

1. Stay Indoors: Limit outdoor activities and exercise indoors.

2. Mindfulness and Relaxation: Practice mindfulness or deep breathing exercises.

3. Connect with Others: Stay in touch with friends and family virtually.

4. Limit Media Consumption: Reduce exposure to negative news.

5. Healthy Diet and Hydration: Eat antioxidant-rich foods, drink plenty of water.

6. Break your study goals into shorter ones.
7. Professional Support: Seek help from a mental health professional if needed.

Recently, I got the privilege to meet Dr. Sanjeev Chopra, the former Director of LBSNAA, and hear him speak. His humble demeanor and insightful reflections on leadership and life were truly inspiring.

A memorable experience that highlighted the power of both knowledge and humility.
