Maintaining a healthy mind is not only essential for facing moments of tension and stress, but it also allows us to develop our abilities, learn, work efficiently, and contribute positively to our environment.
Mental health is not only a fundamental human right but also the foundation that supports our decisions, relationships, and the shaping of the world we live in.
Learning about mental health becomes an important aspect of our own lives and those around us.
