5 easy ways to de-stress yourself and live a healthy lifestyle
While reasons of stress could be different, one thing is for sure that each of us is stressed being in our current state of mind. From an adolescent to an elderly, stress has sunk its teeth in our minds. Whether necessary or not, we are all giant victims of stress in this era.
With digital maelstrom comes new-age stress like FOMO (do we really need to mention what does it stand for?) for teenagers; young singles are tensed for achieving their goals successfully; parents might be stressed because of the environment at their workplace; senior citizens struggle for being an important member of the family; basically, every person has a justification for his/her worries.
