#mindset is everything right now. Here’s some help: – Be positive. Recognize that being negative doesn’t serve you well. – Meditate. Even if it’s only five minutes, make time to shut the world out and clear your mind. – Create something. Confinement cultivates creativity. You need a creative release. Write, draw, cook, build, sing. Do something. Creating is a way to release psychological pressure. Hope this helps! What’s working for you??? . . . #onlineconversations #mentalhealthwarrior #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #socialdistancing #covid_19 #quarantinehelp
