- Despair to Awakening (Essay on Evolve)
— A clinical psychologist who specializes in treating trauma, Dr. Ameet Ravital offers three suggestions about how to approach our despair about the state of the world.
— COVID-19, the corona-virus, now being called a global "pandemic", is here and we have to cope with it. Measures to contain its spread may feel extreme and challenging (school and work closures, social distancing, isolation and quarantining of any persons suspected of being infected, and incessant sanitizing of all surfaces).
Here are some suggestions for keeping our immune systems strong, and taking care of ourselves emotionally in the face of uncertainty, as we gradually reduce the scope of our lives to staying at home for an indefinite period of time.
