Modern Day Maladies ?????

HOW DID I GET SO BUSY? - By Valorie Burton

DO you feel that lately life has become the proverbial rat race — where you are constantly moving forward at an ever-more-frantic pace, yet experiencing very little of the joys and rewards life has to offer? I believe that you can take control of your schedule, create room to breathe, and make time for the people and activities that matter most. As life moves faster, we are compelled to do more. As a result, our lives aren’t just overloaded, but lived in overdrive. It is an epidemic that, for many of us, is spiralling out of control. There’s little time to live in the present because we’re always focused on what needs to be done next. So we’re here physically, but mentally we’re ten minutes or even ten days into the future. The root of the busyness epidemic lies partly in the fact that many of us — whether we admit it or not — view our busyness as a badge of honour. “How are you doing?”, we are asked, and we instinctively reply, “Oh, I’m so busy.” If we are busy, we feel that we are accomplishing things, we are making an impact, we are living life to the hilt. But the truth is that busyness itself does not guarantee results. In fact, existing in perpetual overdrive often makes it harder to do anything well at all. When you are overrun with activity, it usually means you are ready to overhaul some major areas of your life. You are ready for a life makeover because the life you are living is not a full expression of your values and who you are.

What do you think? What is the impact on our Health? What should be done? Does Homoeopathy has answers to the Modern Day Maladies like Mood Changes, Irritability, Sleep Disorders, Hypertention etc.etc.?
