Smart Living with Grit and Grace

How to Get Over the Pandemic That’s Not Over – 139


Listen Later

2020 has not gone as hoped. We anticipated “clear vision” and big revelations…not fear, isolation, and a complete disruption of life as we know it.

Even though we have to stay stuck in this rut a little longer, there is a way to let this modern-day plague propel us forward. Taking with us the lessons we can learn and blessings to gleaned from this unprecedented time in history. If we look to the bright side, the quarantine did give us all a forced fresh-start. Perhaps through deepened relationships, or finally having time to recognize what part of life was draining. You’ve come to realize the importance of what you miss the most, as well as recognize those things that this season freed you from. It’s time to reset, deciding how to fill our lives and schedules going forward. We can even say “no” to what wasn’t serving our family or us well. But to do that, resist the temptation to feel guilty for not going back to everything you did before.

Darlene and Julie offer simple tools to help adjust to the new “almost post-pandemic” normal, even if it’s not over yet. Let’s take this slow ramp-up to feel the losses we’ve experienced while embracing our new balanced grit and grace life when we reach the other side of Covid19. Listen in, get ready to release some of the stress, and find joy again.
