As the digital age accelerates and societal pressures mount, stress is becoming a growing global concern—one that can significantly impact our mental and physical well-being. The World Health Organization (WHO) has highlighted the pervasive nature of stress, especially in recent years. According to the Gallup Global Emotions report (2021), nearly 190 million people worldwide experienced significantly higher stress levels in 2020. A 2022 survey by Rakuten Insight revealed that 50 per cent of Indians aged 24-34 felt more stressed or anxious in the past year. To bring attention to the negative impact of stress, promote stress management best practices in both personal and professional lives, as well as spread knowledge for overall well-being, the first Wednesday of November is observed as National Stress Awareness Day in the US.
