Stresszilla, the Monster of Stress & Anxiety

The Threat

Stresszilla is a spiky kaiju crackling with frazzled, tangled energy and a hundred worried thoughts at once. He grows bigger every time someone bottles it all up and tries to do everything alone. Deep breaths, a calm walk with friends, a little meditation, and a strong community shrink him right back down to size.

How To Defeat Stresszilla

  • Walking Groups
  • Meditation
  • Deep Breathing
  • Friendship

Each of these is a real, everyday habit. Stack a few together and this villain doesn't stand a chance — that's the whole idea behind the Strong Striders.
