About the Talk

  1. Hidden Science in Art:  What does Nataraja have to do with Crab supernova? Why is there an idol of Nataraja in CERN, the largest particle physics laboratory in the world? How is Gangadhara related to the Orion constellation? What astronomical points in space do Rahu and kethu represent? Did you know that Kolams contain mathematical concepts like symmetry, fractals and infinity. Did you know that our ancient scholars developed a technique for encoding mathematics in poetry.
  2. Importance of Sleep and tips to improve: In my 11 years of coaching, if there was one foundational habit on which everything – maintaining the fitness habit, reducing sugar cravings, handling work-life balance, reducing stress, improving health – hinges upon, it is in sleeping better. And unfortunately, with every passing year, sleep habits, sleep quantity and sleep quality are trending in the wrong direction. It is time to take a stance and prioritise our sleep. I will show you how you can fix your sleep!
