... two women were picked at random on the streets of downtown Toronto. They told the CBC horrendous stories about how difficult their lives are from being unable to meet the needs of their children, to too much stress at work, not enough money for childcare, and having no time to themselves.
But, if like the two women, youre under too much pressure in your life and you dont have any free time, keep in mind its happening to just about everyone, and its not your fault. It has to do with the way the economic system we live under us putting the squeeze on most of us.
How serious is the problem? A poll conducted for the Heart and Stroke Foundation revealed that half those interviewed were unhealthy because of their lifestyle:
44% of respondents said they had no time for regular physical activity.
41% said healthy meals take too long to prepare.
More than half (51%) said fast food outlets don't have enough healthy choices.
And almost a third (31%) said the time they would like to spend being active they instead spend commuting.
These findings are of interest to the folks at Heart and Stroke because heart disease and stroke kills one in three Canadians and is the leading killer of women.
