According to data from the Spanish National Institute of Statistics, an estimated one out of every four workers are absent every day from <\/strong>in Spain. Although they\u2019re not the only reasons, a fast-paced lifestyle chock full of stimuli<\/strong>, endless working hours, multitasking<\/strong> and the challenges of balancing<\/strong> work and personal life are the main causes of a large part of society’s inability to disconnect from professional responsibilities.<\/strong> Added to the fact that new technologies<\/strong> make it possible to turn turn any place into a branch of the office, the growing trend of working from home<\/strong> is blurring the line that traditionally separated work and free time<\/strong>, serving up the perfect cocktail that keeps our minds on work all day long.<\/p>\n As Cinthya Molina, psychologist at SHA explains, \u201cthe human body ends up getting used to this frenetic pace<\/strong> and when the time comes to stop and rest, we can\u2019t do it because cortisol<\/strong> levels, which is the stress hormone, are still very high. This makes us feel upset and anxious<\/strong>. Even if the stressful stimulus disappears, the body needs three or four days to go back to its normal state. This translates into muscle overload<\/strong>, headaches, lack of concentration<\/strong>, apathy and problems in getting the necessary restorative rest, among many other symptoms\u201d.<\/p>\n
