Title: The Anxious Generation: Islamic Insights for Inner Calm

Synopsis: In a recently published book titled, ‘The Anxious Generation’, the authors set out the premise that society has effectively rewired childhood and created an epidemic of mental illness. In a world in which we are always ‘on’ and exposed to ever more social media channels and feeds, is there any truth to this argument? What are the root causes of anxiety? These are just some of the questions that will be tackled in this week’s episode of Pathway To Peace; as well as taking a look at how Islam provides a profound and holistic framework to navigate these challenges and attain a sense of inner calm.
