At least one in eight of us is affected by mental health issues.
Today, on World Mental Health Day, the World Health Organisation (WHO) encourages us to “rekindle our efforts to protect and improve mental health.” But the real question is—are we open about our mental health, or are we silently holding ourselves back?
This Mental Health Day, take a sincere pledge to be more mindful of your thoughts and emotions. Whether you’re part of a digital marketing agency, a video production team, an ad film agency, or a corporate film production company, the health of your mind impacts the quality of your work, your creativity, your relationships, and your overall happiness.
Since most of us spend nearly half our day at the workplace—be it producing animation films, editing product films, working on branding projects, or handling digital media campaigns—it becomes essential to ensure we feel mentally present and stable. Small conscious efforts can protect our mental wellbeing and uplift the workplace environment.
Here’s how you can take care of your mental health at work:
✔ 1. Remind Yourself Why You Love What You Do
Whether you’re scripting an ad film, designing branding assets, or delivering a corporate video, list down what excites you about your role. Revisit it on low days—it becomes a powerful anchor.
✔ 2. Don’t Mask Emotions—Speak Up When Overwhelmed
In industries like video production services or animation studios, deadlines can get intense. Saying “No” when needed and seeking help from seniors can prevent burnout, confusion, and exhaustion.
✔ 3. Normalize Vulnerability at Work
Creative fields like ad filmmaking, animation, and digital media thrive on open communication. Allowing vulnerability creates safe spaces to ask for help and improves team performance.
✔ 4. Choose Better Words & Kinder Tones
While reviewing ad films, corporate films, or branding concepts, be mindful of your language. Give constructive criticism gently and offer appreciation generously.
✔ 5. Focus on Growth, Not Perception
Ignore external judgments and focus on your self-improvement, your craft—be it digital marketing, animation, product videography, or branding—and your company’s progress.
✔ 6. Maintain Personal Wellbeing Beyond Work
Your creativity flourishes when your life is balanced. Continue your hobbies, take care of your health, and maintain boundaries to stay mentally and emotionally fit.
These small habits reduce conflicts, create harmony, and foster a positive workplace—benefiting individuals and teams across ad film production, corporate video creation, animation studios, branding services, or any creative environment.
This Mental Health Day, reach out to your colleagues and simply ask: “Are you okay?”
Take a moment to check in, support each other, and contribute to a healthier, more empathetic workspace.
