We are fighting the battles of our ancestors. We are still in survival mode. Today we stress about the pace and demands of modern life but it is the wars of our past that we continue to fight.

We live as though the food will all run out and our shelter will come crashing down around us if we don’t work hard enough. With the stress levels we experience, from a physiological perspective, you would think we were living in constant peril and strife.

The truth is, there is so much abundance and today’s standard of living is so high that even if we completely crumble under the pressures of modern life, odds are, our needs will still be met. We will be taken care of. Our predecessors have made sure of that.
