Stress Awareness Month is observed in April every year, aiming to raise awareness about the negative impacts of stress on our physical and mental health. The causes and consequences of stress vary across individuals, but it’s imperative to take steps to manage stress levels through healthy coping mechanisms and stress-reducing activities such as exercise, meditation, and self-care.
