The 20th Century was known as an "Age of Anxiety." While the 21st Century is known as an "Age of Frustration." Man has put his foot on Moon but he has to face anxiety, frustration etc. constantly on Earth. Today man has forgotten the art of peaceful living. The present age is known as age of cut throat competition. Everyone is in a rat-race to go ahead. In the race of power and wealth, only some get the garland of victory. The rest of the people get disappointment and frustration. Such disappointed and frustrated people feel a sort of tremendous mental stress and strain. Man can only withhold this stress and strain up to a certain extent. Like a camel on which we load more and more weight, a stage will come when it will not even be able to bear the weight of a piece of grass. The camel will fall down. Similarly this happens with man also. Man faces life's intolerable anxieties, frustrations, stresses and strains to a certain extent. But if the load of anxieties, frustrations, stresses and strains exceeds the limit of his tolerance he gets highly disturbed. He may become the patient of Diabetes, Ulcer, Blood Pressure, Heart Disease, Headache, Sleeplessness and Depression. He also may undergo a "Nervous breakdown." He may start thinking about suicide. He may be neurotic also. "Life is not worth living, there is no hope in life, and no one will be able to free me from such severe pain of stress, strain etc. "such feelings may overcome his mental stability.

Now-a-days man has become physically healthy. His life span has also increased. But mental health has deteriorated. He is like a passenger who has lost the direction of his destination. More than 50% of patients visiting doctors have psychological problems rather than physical problems. 3 out of every 4 beds in hospitals are occupied by patients who have experienced emotional pain. They need a friend to assist them with sympathy. Along with Allopathy, Homeopathy, Naturopathy and all other 'Pathies' they need counseling, psychotherapy, yogic guidance, advice, sympathy and mind relaxing technique like "Anand Meditation" which can be life enhancing for such people. Man really needs guidance to lead his life to the path of happiness, prosperity, peace, good health and bliss. A life full of happiness, prosperity, peace, health and bliss is more essential to mankind than an atom bomb. A Licensed Professional Counselor/Certified-qualified Yoga Instructor/ Hypnotherapist/Life Coach is the right person who can provide happiness, prosperity, peace, good health and bliss in this age of anxiety, frustration and depression.
