Do you feel guilty or ashamed after you eat some foods? Do you hide what you eat or how much you eat from people? Do you ever stuff yourself till you’re full, and then keep eating?


If you said yes to any of these questions, you, or someone you know, might be suffering from food addiction.


On this podcast, I document my own struggle with food addiction, and how I try to cope with it on a daily basis.


What’s food addiction?


It’s an addiction to junk food that’s as strong as drug addiction and as damaging, if not more damaging.


Like any addiction, a food addiction can kill you prematurely, by causing obesity, heart disease, high cholesterol and a range of lifestyle disorders…and if it doesn’t kill you, it makes you miserable, by taking from you slowly till you’re left a shell of your former self.

How Can We Better Deal With The Big Changes in Our Lives?

What do music lessons, art therapy, cooking, and video-calling have in common? Well, they're all great ways to pass your time in lockdown, silly!


This is a special episode of Vishnu Ki Secret Life, recorded from deep within the confines of my home during lockdown. 


More than two weeks have passed since most of the world went into lockdown, to stop COVID-19 from spreading any further. Two weeks in isolation can do a number to anyone's mental health and peace, going from fun to "when will this end?" quicker than you can say, "coronavirus is not that dangerous".


We're joined by an art therapist, a music teacher, a part-time chef and full-time lawyer, and a counsellor, on this special episode!


Guests: Nyana Sabharwal, Founder, SafeSpace

Anu Singh, Art Therapist, Certified Zentangle Teacher & NLP Coach

Suyash Gabriel, Drummer & Music Teacher

Arnab Ghosh, Lawyer & Part-Time Chef

How to Be Happy, Sane and Productive Amid COVID-19 Lockdown

In the interest of limiting the novel coronavirus’ spread, a number of organisations in India and across the world have asked their employees to work from home, thus eliminating person-to-person contact.


This, as you may know, is all contributing to what has become the watchword in this time of pandemic and panic –– social distancing.


Social distancing is a set of non-medical steps that can limit the spread of the virus.


If we don’t practice social distancing, and if the number of infected keep rising, we also risk overburdening our healthcare system, something that Italy has had to deal with.


Things have changed, and will have to change as we go on... social distancing – by not going out, by working from home, by limiting human interaction, becomes an essential part of this.


Today we’ll show you how to prepare for social distancing and do it effectively so you can weather the coming weeks with good health and peace of mind.

Guests: Dr. Jayakrishnan, Co-ordinator, Regional Prevention of  Epidemic Disease Cell, Calicut Medical College
