This is where change begins.
Rest and Recharge: Calming your Eco-Anxiety
Three-quarters of young people said they thought the future was frightening, over half say they think humanity is doomed and four out of 10 are hesitant to have children because of climate change.
- Nearly 60% of young people feel very worried or extremely worried about climate change
- 45% of those questioned said feelings about the climate affected their daily lives
Solid mental health is foundational to the sustainability of the soul. The world we live in makes it difficult to not feel anxious or depressed. The eco-anxiety caused by climate change can be alleviated through meditation and restorative practices.
