Introduction
C-Park conducted an online interactive webinar on 2nd October 2020 through Google Meet. The webinar was conducted on the subject: Insomnia (i.e.) Sleeplessness. Sometimes, we experience inadequate or poor-quality sleep accompanied by distress or impaired function which bothers us throughout the day. Most of us take it lightly and are unaware that it might be Insomnia. Insomnia is the helplessness to fall asleep or stay asleep at night, resulting in non-restorative sleep.
Interactive Webinar
To enlighten as to how and why insomnia occurs, Mr. Karthik Lakshmanan, a well-qualified Counseling Psychologist, and Psycho-oncologist joined us as the speaker of the session. The webinar commenced with an inaugural speech delivered by one of our passionate volunteers. It was followed by the live webinar delivered by Mr. Karthik Lakshmanan, who has more than 10 years of experience as a practitioner.
With his detailed and interesting presentation, he explained how insomnia is a common sleep disorder that can be found in people of any age. He emphasized on understanding and balancing the emotions efficiently and shared certain symptoms of depression, which is prevailing more lately. He was able to equip and engage the attendees through his realistic examples and clear explanation of the concept.
The presentation was followed by an interactive segment, where the enthusiastic attendees shared their concerns, questioned, and clarified their doubts with our speaker. As an end to the session, the vote of thanks was delivered by one of our proud volunteers and the session came to an end with a note of gratitude to all the participants, conveyed by the compere of the event, who is also an energetic volunteer of C-Park.
