NOW more than ever - we need to be talking about mental health and reaching out to one another.
Even the strongest and most resilient of us are no doubt experiencing 'covid-fatigue'.
Maybe your 'capacity cup' is full to overflowing; and you wish you could just get off this 'anxiety roundabout'? It is therefore important to set 'realistic expectations' in these tough days.
There is no one correct way of getting through this time. Coping strategies will vary from person to person. But we owe it to ourselves to place our own physical, mental & emotional well-being as a very high priority in this time. So, how do you go about creating 'pockets of joy and relaxation' in your day? What is it that helps you depressurise?
I recently read this excellent free e-book by clinical psychologist, Dr Emma Hepburn and cannot recommend it highly enough ... what sensible, solid, practical, down-to-earth advice!!! Thank you, Dr Hepburn 😀😀👍
