029 HOW TO COPE WITH ANXIETY DURING COVID-19 LOCKDOWN
It sounds ridiculous and I’m almost embarrassed to admit that travel at the moment is something that I think about at least ten times per day.
Racing the Engadin Ski Marathon in March specifically (now cancelled for the second year due to covid-19).
With the World on its knees, people struggling to feed their children, immigrants attempting to cross the channel to find a better life and all I can think about is travel and the lack of extreme adventure in my life right now - how dissociated / disconnected have I become!
We all face different struggles, relative to where we are in our life and journey. Avoid the judgement; people are not their behaviours but a by-product of their internal dialog and their journey so far.
It wasn’t that long ago that I was supporting five jobs, my young family were dependant on food parcels and I was struggling physically to cope with the pressures to better myself. I remember thinking a World beyond my struggles, at the time was unachievable based on the current circumstance – the quality of my life was shockingly poor and a challenge despite the attempt to do the best with what I had and held close.
I think if we dig deep enough within most of our journeys we can relate to parts. There are few where financial struggles, health, career or relationships will not be a consideration for deep and questioned thought and sleepless nights.
I mention this today because there is little doubt, that shifts have happened between, what we thought to be known and certain about our future, and the ‘unknowns’ and lack of certainty which we are now faced. The stark reality is that the World will not be the same, as you once knew to be true, you cannot live therefore within the space that offers the same outcome you once held to be certain.
As I’ve said in a recent article, we need to own up to the issues and ‘real’ilty’ facing us at present and start to take the action required to limit and minimise the long-term negative consequences of ‘certain’ choices we have opted for in the past.
YOU NEED TO TAKE POSITIVE ACTION TODAY.
The more you take the action to adapt your plan, for your shifting lifestyle (encompassing all things within) the greater the reduction in the levels of anxiety that you will face.
Avoid the temptation to think that you’ll manage it when it arrives or you will cope, because you wont. Anxiety can make everyday activities the hardest to complete. From getting out of bed in the morning being a struggle to complete failure and paralysis…take the action now, you’ll thank me later.
Here are several things that you can implement right now, that will reduce anxiety levels and highlight elements that you should consider for change.
