Grounding yourself in the period of COVID-19
Posted on March 21, 2020 at 2:39 PM |
Anxiety and worry are understandable reactions to what we are collectively going through. They can relate to feelings of lack of control and the unknown. Be gentle with yourself. Look for things that are in your control on a daily basis. Make choices for yourself to keep your body and mind active and healthy. Move your body, take regular breaks from media, engage in something creative and nourish your body with healthy food and water. Social connection through technology is also important to lessen feelings of isolation. If you feel anxiety coming up, here is a great grounding exercise that is accessible at anytime. |
