Quote by Andrew Bernstein
The number of stressors has multiplied exponentially: traffic, money, success, work/life balance, the economy, the environment, parenting, family conflict, relationships, disease. As the nature of human life has become far more complicated, our ancient stress response hasn't been able to keep up.
Summary
This quote highlights how the modern world has introduced numerous stressors that our ancestors didn't have to deal with. In today's society, factors such as traffic, financial pressures, career expectations, managing personal and professional lives, economic fluctuations, environmental concerns, parenting responsibilities, family conflicts, relationship challenges, and health issues all contribute to mounting stress levels. However, despite these new stressors, our biological stress response, which evolved in simpler times, hasn't adapted adequately to cope with these complex challenges.
