Mr. Rawat further added that the rising cost of funds and the increased government spending result in higher fiscal deficit, falling level of corporate governance resulting in delayed policy execution and project approvals has made the life CEOs stressful as they are unable to push forward the corporate goals and fight competition.

The survey also revealed that younger CEOs having age group of 30-45 are getting very health conscious compared to those that are in the age-group of 50-65.

Interestingly the survey, said Mr. Rawat revealed that younger generation CEOs avoid seeking consultations from physicians and doctors, describing this exercise of no use as such consultation subject them to intake of antibiotics and other medicines having bad after effects.  This lot resorts to doctors and physicians consultation when they develop symptoms of high blood pressure/hypertension, diabetes, indigestion and insomnia and life style disorders.

However, young entrepreneurs are choosing a new way to overcome the stress, i.e. by watching movies with families and friends during weekends, listening music and driving himself whenever they go for a vacation in the weekends.

Nearly 15% of CEOs take the stress a positive instrument to work harder even under stress as their experience suggest that the more one slogs, the results are delivered with higher productivity generation.

Over 40% CEOs are now moving towards new emerging ayurvedic treatments like naturopathy, massage, acupuncture, acupressure etc. and are becoming popular.  According to ASSOCHAM, large metros and towns in the coming 5-6 years will have huge ayurvedic centers to suggest treatment for stress overcoming.

Most of the CEOs are opting for a proper balanced diet with the combination of fruit, cereal, eggs and brown bread in breakfast and lunch and dinner with little quantities of rice, vegetable curries, lentils, yogurt and fruit.
