Celebrities and YouTube stars such as Jada Pinkett Smith and Jay Shetty join Oprah and Deepak Chopra in offering wellness talks and virtual meetings to help with mental health issues

Before the coronavirus outbreak, some of us might not have given too much thought to our mental health. Perhaps we were too busy with our social lives to make time for a little self-love; perhaps any time we tried to meditate, we fell asleep; perhaps the idea of seeing a therapist seemed a little too hippy dippy or “millennial”.

But it seems that many of us are struggling to stay calm in the midst of this debilitating pandemic, and some introspection or mindfulness meditation might not go amiss.

Even before the coronavirus outbreak, wellness practitioners were taking to online platforms to spread knowledge and techniques about how to optimise our mental well-being. In this sense, digital wellness is nothing new.

But, in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak, some of the brightest minds in holistic health – as well as some other familiar faces – have come together to offer activities, programmes and talks specifically meant for these trying times. From Deepak Chopra to Oprah Winfrey, check out these fantastic ways to alleviate your coronavirus anxieties.

1. Meditate with Deepak Chopra
