?One of the text's authors describes two personal experiences that caused her to reflect upon the idea of a "culture of stress." What did she mean by a "culture of stress."

What will be an ideal response?


The author reflected on how her personal background -- growing up in the Midwest with a Norwegian, Protestant work-ethic paradigm -- shaped her values, beliefs, and goals related to work and leisure, emphasizing work over leisure. Her experiences in Australia and Amsterdam, where she saw people prioritizing relaxation and socializing, caused her to ask:?"Have we become a society of isolated workers who have lost sight of the importance of relaxing, socializing, and just having fun? Should we reexamine our culturally induced priorities?"?
