Stress Awareness Month

News - 1 April 2025

April marks Stress Awareness Month 2025, a time for you to take charge of your wellbeing and discover effective ways to manage stress. This year’s theme, #LeadWithLove, empowers you to approach ourselves and others with kindness, compassion, and acceptance, no matter the challenges we face.

Aims of Stress Awareness Month:

  • Educate the public about the causes and effects of stress.
  • Promote effective stress management techniques to enhance mental health and wellbeing.
  • Encourage open conversations to reduce the stigma surrounding stress and mental health issues.
  • Provide resources and support to help individuals and organisations manage stress effectively.

Take the Stress Test

The stress test is a valuable tool designed to help individuals assess their current levels of stress and understand how it may affect their daily lives. 

This Year’s Theme: #LeadWithLove

#LeadWithLove—a powerful call to action rooted in the principles of Unconditional Positive Regard. This theme encourages us to approach ourselves and others with kindness, compassion, and acceptance, no matter the challenges we face.

In today’s world, where stress often thrives in the midst of conflict, tension, and division, we believe that love is the universal force capable of shifting the narrative. By choosing love as our starting point, we embrace empathy, prioritise understanding, and create positive change in every interaction.

Whether it’s extending a gesture of kindness to someone nearby, offering support to global communities, or simply practicing self-love, even the smallest acts of love can spark powerful waves of positivity that ripple outward.
