Episode 115: WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM COVID-19?

The Survivor's Guide to Life

The Covid19 crisis is easing. Variants are still with us, Long Covid with its spectrum of lingering physical symptoms is affecting up to a quarter of the population, and residual emotional symptoms of distrust, negativity and fear are widespread. What should we do? This is a good time to take a deep, honest look at ourselves. Who are you now? What have you learned? Don't use this inner look as fuel for either self-pity or self-condemnation. Start to answer the questions, What matters most to me? Are my priorities where they should be? Could I handle aspects of my life better or make different choices? As you take a look inside, have compassion and acceptance for the parts of yourself that need work. Don't let negative emotionality run your show. The hard times we're going through can become an opportunity for change and a chance to develop resilience for the challenges to come.
