According to the Feel Good with Fiama Mental Wellbeing survey, activities like yoga, meditation, and exercise are favored by a majority of Indians to combat stress, while feel-good movies and series serve as a source of relaxation for many.
Rashmika Mandanna, ITC Fiama’s brand ambassador comments, “In today’s fast-paced world, safeguarding our mental health is paramount, given the relentless pressures we face. My daily life often spans odd hours with hectic schedules and travels but I believe in living in the moment and find little joys in the smallest of things, be it small gestures of kindness that I witness around me, or just a quick indulgence of my K-drama or Anime. In my opinion, doing what you like and indulging yourself with small breaks helps destress quicker. I’m proud to be associated with ITC Fiama in their effort to not only acknowledge everyday stressors, but also make mental wellbeing a more proactive conversation today.”
With more awareness about mental health and efforts to reduce stigma, people are focusing on self-care and finding joy in simple things. Rashmika Mandanna’s thoughts highlight the importance of enjoying little pleasures and taking care of ourselves to promote mental well-being.
