Life in New COVID World

We discuss Life in this New COVID World on Realityradio101.com.
How are you managing in this new COVID world?
"the hope that something good can come out of this collective state of "together, apart."– Elena Nicolaou, Mar 19, 2020
Things have changed so rapidly that everyday life seems like "a surreal life".
Dealing with COVID Stress
There are so many people out there trying hard to make a difference and share resources that can help us all. No country or citizen is immune to the potential impact of this disease. Yet, from what we are seeing there are places in the world like South Korea and China where rapid actions have led to a quick handling of this pandemic. We need to stay open to learning from those who can help.

There are many ways to manage the stress of this new COVID world. Join us as we discuss this.
- Take a Media Diet (seriously limit the amount of time you read, or watch COVID related content).
- Exercise more (even if this means chair exercise, walking about your. apartment/room/house/neighbourhood) – always keeping in mind social distancing
- Take a class online (right now there are so many programs and online classes that are launching to address the needs of millions of people experiencing quarantine or social isolation) – I took a live yoga class through Instagram Live (but you can meditate, learn to knit, join a book club, etc.).
- Use this time to do the projects you have wanted to catch up on.
- Reach out to a friend or family member who you have not had time for.
- We'll review a letter from Dr. Hollenstein to his students after classes are closed due to COVID.
- We'll look at what CAMH has to say about COVID.
- We'll provide free irest meditations to help right now.
