Stress and anxiety don’t usually knock politely—they creep in quietly until it feels like they’re running your life. That’s because we live in a fast-paced society that encourages us to do more, be more, make more, and have more. We try to hold it all together and appear capable and confident. But inside, we feel overworked and overwhelmed. So we look for a quick fix, vitamins, supplements, energy drinks, or medication. We try anything to help us keep going, striving, and achieving. But what our souls really crave is to slow down so we can find peace and build resilience.
