Rewire, Rework, Reclaim: Dr. Rajiv Mehta on Managing Stress

What if stress wasn’t something to just endure, but something you could unlearn, rewire, and rise above? In this insightful episode, Mohua speaks with senior consultant psychiatrist and author Dr. Rajiv Mehta, whose book Rewire, Rework, Reclaim offers practical, compassionate tools for managing stress—from anxiety and burnout to relationship issues and digital overload. Drawing on over two decades of experience, he explains how small mindset shifts can lead to major emotional breakthroughs. He explores common triggers like workplace pressure, communication gaps, marital strain, and empty nest transitions, and shares real cases on caregiving, LGBTQ+ challenges, and why positive events can overwhelm too. This episode offers grounded and empathetic guidance for your mental well-being.

Key Topics Covered:

Stress isn’t just emotional—it impacts immunity, hormones, and heart health.
Dr. Rajiv Mehta’s 3R Method—Rewire, Rework, Reclaim—guides you step-by-step toward emotional resilience.
Common stress triggers today: workplace pressure, digital addiction, poor communication, and relationship breakdowns.
Even positive changes like marriage or promotions can overwhelm the brain and require adjustment.
Empty nesters can reclaim purpose and joy after children leave home.
Rebuild support systems in an isolated, nuclear-family world—and learn to overcome ego barriers.
Chronic stress links to autoimmune conditions, especially in women—making stress management vital for health.
Parents can curb kids’ screen addiction—starting with simple device-free dinners.
LGBTQ+ mental health needs empathy, inclusion, and understanding.
Unresolved sexual issues often stem from the mind, not the body—and carry a heavy emotional toll.
Psychiatric breakthroughs happen when families heal together—illustrated by a real-life case study.
Managing stress means working with it, rewiring your responses, and living with intention—not eliminating it.
