The stress epidemic
In the hustle and bustle of today's fast-paced world, the prevalence of anxiety and constant stress has become a common thread that binds us all. The demands of modern life leave us constantly on the run and feeling drained at the end of the day. Certainly modern life has provided us with remarkable conveniences and opportunities, but it has also brought with it stress which undoubtedly affects people from all walks of life. The incessant connectivity of the digital age and the uncertainties of a rapidly changing world have combined to create a breeding ground for stress.
