The World Health Organization (WHO) has labeled stress the “health epidemic of the 21st century” exerting significant burdens at all levels of society.¹ In fact, the WHO has concluded that problems and disorders related to stress are common and may contribute to over 50% of physician visits around the world with both internal and external stressors contributing to those increasing rates. The WHO has also explored the association of stress to increasing prevalence of depression, stating that it affects more than 300 million people globally, and is the leading cause of disability worldwide.
