Sanctuary Spa’s short YouTube film features several elderly women speaking about their regrets and, given the chance, what they would have done differently in their lives.
“Earlier this year, we asked women about their lifestyle — nearly half said they were feeling moderately or extremely stressed & shockingly 40% feel like they’re about to burn out. We weren’t surprised, we feel it too (sic),” Sanctuary Spa said of the video.
“From our everyday never-ending ‘to do’ lists to the pressure the media puts on us to be the ‘perfect woman,’ we rush around trying to do more, be more, give more. But we don’t need to be like this 24/7, it’s not healthy. We need to #LetGo of all this pressure every now & again (sic).”
The quotes that came out of the video are thought-provoking.
