026: Staying Mentally Grounded & Refreshed During Covid19

Lately I’ve been taking some steps back, reorienting myself to adjust to new changes, finding solitude and grounding within my own internal life, putting necessary online boundaries in place, looking at credible research and thinking critically about how to approach the many conversations taking place right now.

It’s reasonable if you’re having a hard time mentally finding your grounding right now. We’ve been put in a position our generation has never been in before where we have to find adaptable ways to cope on a mass scale.
