Dr. Bonnie, therapist and author of Make Up Don’t Break Up encourages us to be in the moment!
And focus on learning how to be joyful again after the unknown, endured in the pandemic.
1. Expect less from yourself and others as you make the bridge to some sense of normalcy.
2. Focus on having “safe”, PLANNED fun ( or it will not happen) and self-care and self-compassion rather then pushing yourself or doing too many “should’s” like chores, as you ease into life again! R and R (rest and relaxation) will help make the transition to recharging, feeling good, and hopeful again!
3. It’s perfectly fine to EASE into being with people, a certain amount of anxiety is normal re: feeling “safe” due to the change in masks, interactions with others.
4. Take a few moments DAILY to take inventory in the morning and before bed of what you are THANKFUL for.
This will give you hope, and keep you positive, to put one foot in front of the other as you transition from the pandemic to “living again”. Remember “act as if” until you get there!
