It encompasses how individuals think, feel, and behave, and it influences how they handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Understanding mental health is crucial for promoting overall well-being and addressing the challenges individuals may face.

Stress is a natural response to demanding situations, but when it becomes overwhelming or chronic, it can have a negative impact on physical and mental well-being. Stress management involves adopting strategies and techniques to cope with stress effectively and maintain a balanced and healthy lifestyle.

Cultivating Mindfulness
