We think we are struggling with stress and anxiety today, despite seemingly having the best of the best that technology can offer.
Was this always the case?
Our existence is a tapestry rich with ancestral threads, spanning not just the last 400 years but reaching far deeper into the annals of human civilization.
Within just say the last 400 years alone, our lineage would include an astonishing 4,094 ancestors over 12 generations.
It begins with a vast network of 2,048 ninth great-grandparents and intricately narrows down through the generations, converging at our 2 parents. However, this is just a glimpse of our heritage, as human history extends much further back.
Every generation, from those 400 years ago to the dawn of civilization, faced its own set of trials, triumphs, and life stories.
These countless generations, their struggles, joys, and hopes, have interwoven to create our present.
So what are we anxious about really?
