Answer:

Today, we are living in an age when people are more stressed than relaxed. Due to extreme competitiveness in every aspect of life, there is always a lack of time. This then leads to high level of anxiety, mental tension and of course, the feeling of dissatisfaction.

A cut-throat competition starts at school level with parents pressurising children to work extra hard and score high marks in all subjects. Students too feel the pressure of performing better than the rest. Therefore, they get stressed when they are unable to perform according to expectation. The stress builds on until it turns into health hazards, which stays on forever.

Then there is stress at work front, which is worse than scoring high. Students might acquire highest marks, but this does not guarantee that it would land their desired jobs. Even if they do, there are other reasons for one to feel the stress. Desired salary, timely promotion, material growth, such as own house and car, marriage, etc. often come along with anxiety, stress and lifestyle diseases.

Therefore, it is suffice to say that the present day youth are greatly stressed and to some extent, the consumerist culture is to be blamed for this.

Fortunately, there is a solution to avoid stress at all times. Regular exercise and yoga improves concentration and keeps the mind healthy. It decreases physical ailments, reduces behavioural problems, reduces depression, stress, thus calming one’s mind.

One should also spend some quality time with one’s family, friends and loved ones, do charity/ community service, adopt pets, go for walks or pursue a hobby in order to de-stress.

Answer:

Causes Of Stress On The Modern Generation

By ABC

The main cause of stress on the modern generation is the cut-throat competition and

consumerist culture prevalent in our society. This always puts them under pressure of

efficiency and productivity. The modern environment is highly competitive and calls for

relentless effort on the part of each youngster. To achieve the goals they have to devote

all their time and capacity, without rest. So they have no time to care even for their own

selves. They have no time for relaxing or to pursue something of their own interest sounds

like a luxury to them. The effects of this stress on the youth also visible in their physical

being whereby they have increased pulses and a lot of tension in their muscles.

With increased professionalism and specialization there seems no practical and suitable solution for this stress due to the competition. In this age of consumerism, it is not  surprising that the youth of today are also constantly vying to outdo each other in acquiring  material things. But now it is high time each one of us sat back in quiet introspection to  

 

contemplate where we are actually heading in this high-speed pace. Our health and well-

being will have to be our primary concern for, as they say, “a healthy mind lies in a healthy

body”. Let us stop living like robots. We are humans and have to behave likewise and not

like machines which are our own creation.
