| This festive season, give yourself the gift of self-care |
|
As the year draws to a close, you might be a bit worn out. The latest Ipsos World Mental Health survey found that a staggering 70% of South Africans have faced stress levels that make it difficult to cope with life’s demands. And Prop Data’s recent poll shows a majority of estate agents, too, are feeling the strain and struggling to disconnect after a busy day.
This December, take a moment to relax, recharge, and resolve to prioritise your mental health in 2025. Don’t miss our next newsletter, where we'll share practical tips to help you manage work stress and cultivate positive habits for a happier, healthier life.
