On Sept 20, 2020, during my visit to Ichalkaranji, a bustling city in Kolhapur District, I was invited to give an online talk on How to Deal With the Fears and Stress Surrounding the Novel Coronavirus. This town had just begun to see an upswing in the number of cases, and people were living in constant fear.
The talk was attended by over 70 people, some of who were kind enough to later meet me personally to express gratitude. I received feedback that people found the talk to be very illuminating, and now felt much better about the situation. The feeling of helplessness and was now replaced with a can-do attitude.
Here are some pictures from that day…
