Staying Sane in Lockdown 3


Listen Later

Lockdown 3.0 has brought with it many challenges. The restrictions on our freedom can and have caused many people mental health problems. Join Neil today as he gives his top tips on staying sane during Lockdown 3.0. Neil discusses the value of recognising things you are grateful for, the fearful affect the mainstream media has on us and why daily reflections can help boost your morale.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Due to the Lockdown enforcements, many people are struggling with their mental health. People are feeling like they no longer have control of their lives. The very best way to look after your mental health in Lockdown 3.0 is to look after yourself and save your sanity.

 

  • Be grateful. If you wake up every day, you’re ahead of the curve. Waking up every day means you can still be useful and be of service to your tribe. You get to be a positive force if you decide to take that option. Write down things that you can be grateful for.

 

  • Get away from the news. If all the news is telling you is the same, scripted disastrous news, then get away from it. The mainstream media preys upon you by making you fearful and keeping you glued in front of the television. It will not serve you.

 

  • The battle for your health is not going to be won in the gym. It is going to be won and lost in the supermarket. Don’t buy junk food and make yourself a list of things that are good for your body. Ensure you only buy the groceries on the list.

 

  • When you review and reflect on the day and the choices you made, do you think that that reflection will affect your future choices and allow you to make better choices as you move forward?

 

  • Reflect on what you learned during the day. Write your learning down in a journal and close the day off with that. Be grateful because you had a chance to have a positive impact on the day, and tomorrow when you wake up you get to do that all over again.

 

BEST MOMENTS

“It is up to us because it is blatantly obvious there doesn’t seem to be any consideration given to the mental health outpour of this pandemic from the government.”

 

“If you wake up and decide to play the victim. Tough. Nobody cares, you are just taking up space if that’s the role you want to adopt.”

 

“I believe it is the main reason I am so positive.”

 

“If I dress for work I will have my work head-on.”

 

“Guys, look after your mental health.”
