Published: Feb. 1, 2019, 1 p.m.

\u201cIn a single glance through a picture, you can be transformed into another world\u201d\nIt\u2019s no secret that we are facing unprecedented levels of anxiety. But what if there was a parallel world that offered us a different way of thinking about life? Director of the Art Fund, Stephen Deuchar, believes that museums and art galleries offer just that. He talks about the fascinating findings of a recent report that found that actively deciding to take time for cultural activities and pursuits can have a profound impact on our overall wellbeing.\xa0Stephen believes that every human could be moved by a piece of art or culture and that there is something on offer for everyone. And it needn\u2019t take hours \u2013 even a short visit will be beneficial. After talking to Stephen, I feel inspired to explore the rich diversity that is on offer. I hope you do too!\nShow notes available at\xa0drchatterjee.com/artfund\nFollow me on instagram.com/drchatterjee/\nFollow me on facebook.com/DrChatterjee/\nFollow me on twitter.com/drchatterjeeuk\nDISCLAIMER: The content in the podcast and on this webpage is not intended to constitute or be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
