Psychology, Mental Health, and Awareness Holidays - March 2025
Photographs taken and edited by Rachel Clousing - March 2022, Fort Worth Botanic Garden
This series lists holidays related to psychology, mental health, and raising awareness. There will be lists for months, weeks, and days. The intention is to raise general awareness about topics, give ideas for possible content creation, and create opportunities to learn something new.
I have split types of holidays into Awareness Holidays and Psych/Mental Health Holidays. I used nationaltoday.com to find all the holidays listed below. Not affiliated. Some may have links to blogs I have written on the subject.
Find out more about how this series came to be in this Meet The Author post.
