Somewhere between the third “urgent” Slack ping and the seventh missed lunch break, most of us have the same thought: something has to give.

There’s a particular kind of stress that comes from standing in a bookshop, overwhelmed, staring at an entire shelf of stress management books and not knowing where to start — which is, admittedly, a little ironic.
