Conclusion
Hard economic times, political unrest, social injustices, and daily stresses have increased anger and stress levels.
Now, more than ever, we need to blow off steam. Otherwise, we risk letting that frustration out on the people and things around us or even impacting our overall well-being.
Some people enjoy calming practices like meditation to release stress, but you may prefer breaking stuff.
Rage rooms come in to provide a safe and non-judgmental space to release rage through destruction therapy.
