What are you doing to stay positive and sane during COVID?
I would love to hear. I am meditating every day and today I started a gratitude journal. I am also collecting positive stories as well as keeping in touch with my loved ones and friends via texting, emailing, calling, etc.
Someone told me about this in Italy.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNxhSe4TiOQ So beautiful. Made me get all teary. Singing with other people is so fun! |

DH and I started watching episodes of Mr. Bean on Amazon Prime last night. It was just what we needed! I also check in regularly with my loved ones. My mom is 101 and in a nursing home, so I'm particularly worried about her. The staff is doing regular temp checks and completely isolating residents from community dining and activities.
Lately I've started doing Jane Adams' Lying Practice (from Gentle Yoga) after I'm done working for the day. Fortunately, I was already self-employed when the you-know-what hit the fan, and I'm so grateful for the distraction.

Going outside as much as possible. It seems that's the one time I'm not inundated by the world's anxiety, fear, frustration, etc.

Since I have to be out anyway, I reached out to a couple of even older neighbors and let them know I would try to get whatever they needed from WalMart if they were nervous about shopping.
I want to restart meditating every day. I'm trying to hope and believe this crisis will remind us as individuals, communities, and countries what is really important vs. what is just fluff. _____ YADeb |
