Email of the Day: Strategies For Keeping My Mental Health

By Dr. Laura on April 13, 2020
Email of the Day: Strategies For Keeping My Mental Health

As with all of us, major life changes have accompanied COVID-19.  Our 17-month-old grandson moved to South Carolina with his parents in order to protect us (we are in our 70s).  
For over a year, we babysat him daily.  Our family has respected our need to quarantine, however.  My strategies for keeping mentally healthy currently are: 
 
1.) I thank God daily for our continued good health, and our caring family and friends.

2.) Each day, I call and text or email others to check on their well-being.

3.) I've learned how to use Skype and Zoom to "see" my family and friends.

4.) My line dance teachers are teaching live on Facebook, so I dance three times a week and take daily walks while listening to your podcasts.
 
5.) My husband and I have great sex frequently, and I cook marvelous meals for us.
 
In essence, I've established a new routine which gives me purpose and I remain positive by noting the good things happening around me. 

Stay well!
