💗 International Stress Awareness Week 2026 💗
📅 2nd – 6th November 2026
This week is International Stress Awareness Week, a time to raise awareness of how stress can affect our mental and physical wellbeing.
💭 We all experience stress at different times in our lives. Whether it's pressure at work, family responsibilities, financial worries or everyday challenges, stress can sometimes feel overwhelming.
🌿 Small steps can make a big difference:
💗 Take time for yourself and do something you enjoy.
🚶♀️ Get outdoors and enjoy some fresh air.
💬 Talk to someone you trust about how you're feeling.
😴 Make time for rest and a good night's sleep.
🧘 Take regular breaks and practise relaxation.
🤝 Remember, it's OK to ask for help.
At Tanfield View Medical Group, we want to remind our patients that looking after your mental health is just as important as looking after your physical health.
If stress is affecting your everyday life, please don't struggle in silence. Support is available.
