Nature Photography - Therapy Amidst the Episodes of Pandemic Lockdowns and Curfews

  It was at the start of Covid lockdowns in March 2020 that I realised I remained with mother nature as the only friend within reach whereas family and colleagues were distanced from by the pandemic. I needed therapy for anxiety, stress & pressure caused by the pandemic alongside the research challenges for my Master’s thesis [ presented at the (AORTIC) International Conference and published at the Journal of Clinical Oncology ], and the uncertainties of getting back into the business world while applying and networking. It’s through walking, hiking and biking I was able to take care of myself and use the most feasible therapy at the time - photography. In the process, I  was able to embrace the beauty of nature and could capture moments, which I didn’t keep for myself; but ended up sharing to the family, friends, and colleagues I was distanced from and the world on social platforms like WhatsApp, Twitter, and Instagram. You might have missed a healthy timeline :)! I love the fact
