International Men’s Health Week
International Men’s Health Week
International Men’s Health Week, which falls annually from 10th to 16th June, serves as a global wake-up call for men and boys of all ages to heighten awareness of preventable health problems. It’s a rallying cry for men to engage in healthier habits, from prioritising mental health and ditching the couch to sharing emotions and even facing those dreaded doctor’s appointments.β¨
Why should you pay attention to International Men’s Health Week? Whether you’re a man or not, isnβt it time we shattered the “tough guy” stereotype and ditched toxic masculinity? Too many men avoid seeking help when needed, but self-care isn’t weakness; it’s wisdom. This week encourages us to drop the macho act and promote a healthier lifestyle. So, let’s pledge to celebrate the cause, support one another, and remind men that prioritising their well-being is not just okay β it’s essential.β¨
