Lakshmi Manchu, Daughter of Mohan Babu, Shares Her Approach to Mental Well-Being

Mumbai, Dec 18 (NationPress) Actress Lakshmi Manchu has recently shared how she places importance on her mental and physical health even with a demanding schedule.

In revealing her personal experiences, Lakshmi highlighted the need for a harmonious balance between these two health aspects to lead a satisfying and productive life. In a recent discussion, she expressed, "First and foremost, I genuinely believe that the practice of self-care is something we all need to grasp. It's not complicated. It boils down to the fact that if you don't cherish yourself enough to care for yourself, you shouldn't expect others to provide that love and care either. Certainly, we are fortunate to have supportive people around us, but ultimately, no one can heal you better than you can."

She continued, “Self-care isn’t merely about treating yourself to luxurious items or indulging in experiences. It’s about how much you value your body and mind and what actions you take to maintain their wellness. Are you nourishing your body with healthy food? Are you engaging in essential fitness activities for your health? All these factors are crucial for self-nourishment, and only when you feel well internally can you enhance your overall mental and physical health. I’m not implying that you won’t face challenges regarding your mental and physical well-being. Life will undoubtedly present its ups and downs, and you will encounter issues. However, maintaining a disciplined and balanced lifestyle year-round will equip you with the mental and physical strength to tackle these obstacles more effectively.”

“Like anyone else, I have faced my own fair share of mental and physical health challenges. However, what has propelled me forward is my commitment to my body and mind and, most importantly, my fearless determination to achieve my goals. Through self-care and self-love, you position yourself beautifully to extend more love to those around you, contributing to making the world a better place. Thus, for me, prioritizing my mental and physical health is paramount, and I encourage everyone to do the same,” the actress elaborated.

On the professional front, Manchu, the daughter of renowned actor Mohan Babu, began her acting career with the American TV series “Las Vegas.” Subsequently, she appeared in shows like “Desperate Housewives,” “Late Nights with my Lover,” and “Mystery ER.”

She has also starred in the web series “Yakshini.”
