The pandemic seems far away, and yet far too close. In the aftermath, a lot has changed, especially in wellness and healthcare. It reignited debate about simpler holistic solutions for our physical and mental health. At the Soul Festival at Soneva Fushi in Maldives a couple of months ago, an engaging panel of global wellness experts shared their collective thoughts on the new paradigms for society — from nurturing a sense of community to gut health to deconstructing stress. These are key topics today as we ready for a new year, with fresh opportunities for good choices to be made. Excerpts from a few free-wheeling conversations.
