Your mind matters. World Mental Health Day

šŸ§ Mental Health Day is a reminder to pause and reflect, especially for women who often feel pressured pressure to play the role of a modern day: superwoman: close. Juggling, family, and hostel well-being, many women feel the need to excel in every aspect, all the time.

This invisible cape comes at a high cost.

In fact, studies have shown that work related stress for women is 50% higher than for men, with many women, particularly those age 35 to 54, juggling roles, such as mothers and professionals often leading to burnout. Women are also twice as likely to be diagnosed, with anxiety disorders as compare to men, further emphasis sizing the mental load they carry

men and women face different stresses, but the societal expectations and the ā€œdo it allā€ mindset contribute to womenā€™s stress more acutely.

Research by the Priority Group also shows that women often experience a greater sleep deficit due to these demands, which worsens mental health overtime.

Our suggestion?
šŸ–ļøTake a vacation ā€“ seriously, itā€™s not only ā€œokayā€ itā€™s essential!

Women often carry the weight of being everything to everyone but remember you donā€™t need to be superwoman all the time unplugging from work, even for a day, can refresh your mind and help reset your energy levels.

ā˜€ļøTaking a break isnā€™t a luxury, itā€™s a necessity. In fact, studies show that time off can reduce significant stress, improve mental health, and boost productivity, when you return.

šŸ¦øā€ā™€ļøItā€™s time to shut the superwoman cap, even if itā€™s just for a weekend to recharge.
