What You've Been Looking For

Lockdown Living

Welcome back to Series two! 

We've kicked off this season - of course - with the topic of the moment - coronavirus and isolation, as we share our various experiences of the last 4 or 5 weeks. 

We begin with our experiences of the early weeks where we all had experiences of turmoil, confusion, frustration and grumpiness. Being dropped in at the deep end of a whole new experience of life that was confronting our various tightly-held beliefs was inevitably gonna feel like that.

For Helen, it was a belief of "I can't homeschool my kids" - in the presence of that homeschooling was bound to look impossible!

For Gary, it was "I'm an introvert, I need my own space" - in the presence of that, inevitable grumpiness with these people who are apparently in MY space.

And for Natalie - the big one - an experience of Coronavirus accompanied with "I'm not OK if I'm ill" was perfectly designed to bring extreme symptoms, extreme experiences and the opportunity to explore what was really true about those, what is this experience really?

We also talk about what would be seen as the "good" things from this situation like more community, greater connection, more humanity and of course the benefit to the environment.

If you've been finding yourself in the rollercoaster of the ups and downs since we all retreated to our homes, have a listen and see what occurs to you about your experience.

Is it really coming from those people you share a house with, or is there something else going on?

Thanks for listening and please share if you like it so others can find us too.
