Stress can be a real killer, both in the workplace and in our day to day lives. Stress serves a solid purpose in human biology, but our modern lives have brought about a surplus of causes that haunt us from day to day.
About Stress Awareness
Stress Awareness Day was set aside as time to be aware of the stress in our lives and how it affects us. Stress Awareness Day was established by the International Stress Management Association (ISMA). It was established to help provide information on stress, and strategies on how to address it for all individuals.
“To achieve great things, two things are needed: a plan and not quite enough time.”
The organization is focused on helping employers and employees help each other by providing comprehensive guides to establishing a program within their organization, and individuals by looking after their health and well-being on a day to day basis.
How to celebrate Stress Awareness Month?
The best way to celebrate Stress Awareness Day is to take the opportunity to remove the stress from your life for the day. Take the time to examine your life and find out where all the stressors lie and start looking into taking steps to remove them or find ways to mitigate them.
Whatever you choose to do, take the time to take a day off and let yourself have a day of freedom. If it’s sickness, do something to help you focus on something other than that sickness. Stress can be a killer, don’t let it take one more day from your life, act now and start living a stress-free life!
