In today’s world, it seems as if it is becoming more and more common for people to struggle with their mental health. According to Arlin Cuncic, an author for the website Very Well Mind, 6.9 Americans struggle with chronic daily anxiety. With the busy lives that we all live, this is not very surprising. When faced with a problem, it is expected for people to experience stress and to worry about things. While these things are normal and something that everyone deals with sometimes, anxiety disorders are much more extreme, and can have a huge impact on someone’s life. There are many different types of anxiety disorders. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, a person with a generalized anxiety disorder experiences irritability, muscle tension, fatigue, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, and difficulty controlling feelings of worry. There are things that can be done to manage these symptoms such as getting medication, but sometimes medication can cause side effects which turns people away from the idea of taking it. Luckily, meditation can help produce a tranquil mind and a deep state of relaxation which make daily stressors easier to overcome.
