More than 7 in 10 French people say they are in good mental and physical health, according to the latest Sofinscope. This encouraging finding reflects the adoption of well-being practices by 90% of French people and an average monthly budget of \u20ac58 to cope with sources of stress.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To cope with stress, the French have widely adopted well-being practices<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

90% of French people have adopted at least one well-being practice to protect their physical and mental health from the effects of stress. The main sources of stress identified are the economic and social context (76% of respondents), an uncertain future (75%), and the geopolitical context (72%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the most popular well-being practices, outdoor walking stands out, with 59% of French people practicing it regularly. This is followed by sports activities and cooking or DIY, each practiced by more than 4 in 10 French people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A well-being budget the French would like to increase<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On average, the French allocate \u20ac58 per month to their well-being. This amount reaches \u20ac93 among 25\u201334-year-olds. However, this budget is considered insufficient, and ideally they would like to devote \u20ac95 to their physical and mental health. This significant gap between actual and ideal spending highlights the financial constraints faced by the French.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To cope with this, they make trade-offs in their spending, 61% say they sometimes have to forgo certain well-being practices due to lack of means, 60% believe there are enough free solutions to feel better, 50% say digital tools (well-being mobile apps, etc.) are a good alternative when they cannot afford to consult a psychologist, 35% favor activities offering flexible payment options (credit, installments, deferred payment, etc.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

79% of French people say that taking care of their mental health should be a priority. However, the budget dedicated to well-being is constrained, and even though many free activities help people take care of themselves, professionals in the sector must take these financial constraints into account and provide solutions to make their products and services more accessible.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\r\n
