Experts Explain Why Relaxing Is Difficult and How to Manage StressPreviousNext

Many people find it difficult to relax even during free time due to persistent worries about unfinished tasks and responsibilities. Therapist Jeffrey Meltzer suggests consciously giving the brain permission to relax by setting time limits for rest, which can ease anxiety. Similarly, counsellor Kartik R. recommends prioritizing essential tasks to reduce stress. Research indicates that increased screen time and longer work hours contribute to burnout and poor sleep, blurring the line between work and recovery.
