Description

In this episode, we discuss the relationship between stress and modernity, touching on history, technology and overstimulation. We also cover the negative effects of stress on our health and well-being, and different strategies to manage it. We suggest that there is a correlation between stress and our disconnection with nature, arguing that the latter is a powerful antidote to the former.
