"Tenemos una epidemia de estrés en el mundo que impide a las personas ser quienes realmente son"
— Gabor Mate
Simplified Meaning:
Many people feel overwhelmed and stressed because of work, family, and other daily pressures. This constant stress makes it hard for them to be their true selves. For example, someone might be excited about painting or love playing music. But if they are too stressed from their job or other responsibilities, they may not have the time or energy to follow their passion. This stress masks their real interests and talents. To live more authentically, it’s important to manage stress by setting aside time for what you love, asking for help when needed, and finding ways to relax. Balancing your responsibilities and passions can help you become more of your true self.
