Coronavirus Courage and Calm

Recorded on May 28, 2020.  Having concluded the eight-part series called Coronavirus: Courage and Calm channel, Catherine is returning to her usual channel of In the Deep with Catherine Ingram and will be posting twice monthly podcasts on that channel once again.  There we will continue to discuss news and reflections on our historical moment.  We are also starting up twice monthly online zoom sessions with Catherine.  See the website for details: www.CatherineIngram.com/schedule/.

As more places in the world plan to “open up,” Catherine discusses some of the new evidence indicating longterm effects of COVID-19 on the human body and encourages us to stay vigilant until more is known and there are treatments.  She also looks at the habit of living in a slower way and proposes that we can choose to live more at that pace even if the world goes back to a speedier mode.  The weekly version of this channel will change to a more occasional schedule as information or thoughts about our predicament emerge.  Catherine plans to begin online live interactive sessions later in May 2020.  Please subscribe to this channel to be notified or join our mailing list at: www.catherineingram.com
