#quarantine day 12? or is it day 13? I’ve lost a

#quarantine day 12? or is it day 13? I’ve lost all track of time. kinda feeling nostalgic for the freedom to do basic things like go to work, hang with a friend, attend an event, go out to dinner.
——
but I’m also super appreciative for being forced to s l o w d o w n. when have I ever spent 12 straight days at home? with time to cook and try new recipes, read and do creative projects, spend even more time with my family, make lunch for my dad. facetime with friends who I hadn’t spoke to in weeks or had tried and failed so many times to make dinner plans with. yet here we are having a virtual catch up.
——
there’s a positive to every negative — strive to find your upside. ✨

b u r n t • what a year this week has been. I know I’m not the only one feeling burnt out. physically I’ve barely moved except to go from bed to kitchen to couch-turned-home-office, but mentally I’m exhausted.
_____
during a time of so much uncertainty and so much confusion, a time that none of us have ever lived through or experienced, it’s hard to have the answers let alone the RIGHT answers. we’re all just diving in head first hoping to learn how to swim on the way down. and right now it just feels like we’re treading water.
_____
my bit of unqualified and unrequested advice? get your mind off of it — the problems, the restrictions, the headaches, the requests to know everything, the virus, the emails (or lack of emails), the germs, the news, the anxieties... take a night off. or a weekend off. practice some self care. distract your mind. do something you enjoy. take care of yourself. get unburnt. do nothing because there’s nothing to do but also because what you really need is to just. chill.

conflicted: I’m so tired of hearing and reading

conflicted: I’m so tired of hearing and reading and seeing news about #coronavirus. taking breaks from the news has been something I look forward to. yet on the other hand, it hasn’t felt right to post about anything unrelated... how can I share travel and adventure and “life” during these extremely weird and uncertain times?
____
anxious: all of this conflicting, morally complicated, uncertainty has left me way more anxious than I’ve ever felt. normally I’m pretty chill. sure, I’m passionate about things (climate change, plastic, winning an argument) but anxiety has never been anything to get me twisted. normally I see the glass half full, but these aren’t “normal” times. and that’s been a truly uncomfortable battle to push myself through—to stay positive and not anxious.
____
strength: but despite ALL of this madness, it’s been interesting to see how we as a society are able to innovate, to think beyond limits, to rise above the situation. we’re #socialdistancing but still socializing. we’re able to ~digitally~ connect and be “together” despite being apart —virtual meetings, virtual birthday parties, facetime dinner dates, group video happy hours, live streaming yoga classes, live streaming church, virtual meditation sessions, virtual gatherings, etc etc etc. ✨ isn’t that amazing? that we can still do most of what we enjoy even from a distance. using the internet for what it was truly intended for. and I guarantee we’re way more PRESENT during these interactions, because our device is not the distraction but the only means by which we can connect with others.
___
so take a deep breath. order takeout from your local restaurant. facetime a friend. practice social distancing but get creative. and remember: we’ll get through this.

it’s a crazy time. things are scary and totally uncomfortable, but the hysteria is fueling a lot of our actions. rumors and misinformation are flying around faster than anything else.
——
so take a deep breath, maybe shut off the news for a while, talk about something else. take care of your mental health as diligently as you’re sanitizing your hands. use this extra time at home to your advantage— read a book, start your side project, organize your closet. don’t stop living your life and remember, this too shall pass. ✨
