Dealing with Pandemia Are you struggling to deal with all of the constant change and chaos in the world right now? Yes, lots of people are. In the mental health field, we are starting to see an increase in anxiety and depression. Uh-oh! Let’s not go down that rabbit hole…In this episode, I am dishing out some tactics to survive “Pandemia” without losing your mind. First, if you are suffering, I encourage you go and get some help! Even a few sessions could do wonders for your overall ability to deal with this situation. As I see it, there are a couple of major things happening right now with this pandemic and people’s overall mental health. One major theme I see is that people are feeling overstimulated. And then some are under-stimulated. Neither one of these things is good for our bodies and our brains. It’s emotional overload in every direction for a lot of people at one time. We don’t have any control over a lot of things that are happening except for how we deal with each day. So what can we do to take care of our mental health during this pandemic? · Mindfulness. Mindfulness teaches us about being in the moment. Being willing to just be in your life where you are right now. · Have a mantra. Something you say to yourself when you need a little pep talk. Like, it’s ok, I’m ok. That is literally my mantra. I will say it over and over again until I remember that it’s true. · Pay attention to your morning routine. The way we start the day matters and can be a setup for the way the whole thing goes. The way I see it, we are going to go through hard things and how we deal with it is everything. It matters. Even in times of struggle, there’s an opportunity for you to learn about your own capacity for coping, healing, and dealing with hard stuff. So, in the spirit of personal growth, continue to play around in your own life and see where you can effect some change. I’ll be here with you! ********* **Links and Resources** FREE DOWNLOAD- Break free from the grips of overthinking, manage stress effectively, and create a more fulfilling life for yourself.
