What is "International Stress Awareness Day":
International Stress Awareness Day (INSAD) was established in 1988 by the International Stress Management Association (ISMA) to help provide information on stress, and strategies on how to address it for both companies and individuals. The organization is focused on helping employers and employees help each other by providing comprehensive guides to establishing a program within their organization, and individuals by looking after their health and well-being on a day to day basis.
Why is there a need to 'Speak Up and Speak Out About Stress'?
Stress can be a real killer, both in the workplace and in our day to day lives. Stress serves an essential purpose in human biology, but our modern lives have brought about a surplus of causes that haunt us from day to day. When we are faced with a challenge, or a threat to our well-being, the body experiences stress. Whether you’re dealing with a job that puts you under tremendous pressure, or face struggles in your life or relationship that leave you in a state of constant worry, stress can be a real killer. International Stress Awareness Day was set aside as time to be aware of the stress in our lives and how it affects us.
