We have always been told to be future oriented and plan. However, in today's climate we can't really do that, can we? So we are trying to find ways to be present focused and put structure in our day. While we wait on COVID-19 to create a new "norm", we have to look at our current challenges and rebuild our lives around what's happening now. We can no longer just wait and blame the pandemic. For most this includes parenting with added roles of teacher; creating a home environment that is also work, school and play, and trying to keep boundaries between all involved. It isn't always easy but we have to take it one moment at a time. It's okay, to not be okay. Use your support system and whatever skills you have to maintain your self care. We would love to hear about how you have pushed through the challenges of the pandemic, school closings/reopening and other changes. Email us at overpsyched@gmail.com or send us a message on Anchor. We would love to hear from our warriors. Until next time, seek grounding and remain present focused.
