Listening to music calms me down

Dr Blossom Kochhar

For years, I have been on my toes — working round-the-clock. This is for the first time that I have actually sat down and relaxed. But that doesn’t mean I am away from work. I, along with the people of my company, are constantly at work. I try to be in touch with all of them and we are working on how to work during and post-Covid-19. I am taking out a lot of time for myself — doing an online photography course, practising djembe again and listening to a lot of music as it calms me down. Most importantly, I am spending quality time with my family. It is good to talk and spend time together with not much work at the back of our heads. I am calling all my relatives whom I couldn’t because of my busy schedule. And I make sure to exercise a lot. I do yoga and meditation. My brother and I constantly compete against each other as to who completes more steps in a day. I know it is a difficult situation for all of us but we have to be strong and follow the government’s rules.
