WE UNDERSTAND IT CAN DEAL
ANXIETY DURING THESE TIMES.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US, I
THINK THIS IS A TOPIC WE ARE
NOT TALKING ABOUT ENOUGH, HERE.
THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT
THERE WHO ARE ANXIOUS OR HAVING
ANXIETY, THERE IS A GROUP OUT
THERE THAT IS MOST AT RISK
YES, IN TERMS OF ANXIETY?
YES, ABSOLUTELY.
THIS IS REALLY HARD IF YOU ARE
SOMEONE WHO HAS STRUGGLED WITH
ANXIETY IN THE PAST THIS IS
GOING TO BRING BACK ALL SORTS
OF THINGS, ONE OF THE THINGS
PARTICULARLY IF YOU HAVE EVER
STRUGGLED WITH OBSESSIVE
COMPULSIVE DISORDER OR SOME OF
THE COMPULSIVE BEHAVIOR AROUND
CLEANLINESS, LIKE IF YOU HAVE
EVER SORT OF DECIDED YOU NEED
TO WIPE DOWN DOORKNOBS OR
TELEPHONES OR WASH YOUR HANDS
THREE TIMES, THIS KIND OF
SITUATION THAT WE ARE IN RIGHT
NOW WHERE WE REALLY DO NEED TO
DO ALL OF THOSE THINGS IS NOT
ONLY FOR INDIVIDUAL HEALTH IT
IS ALSO FOR PUBLIC HEALTH.
IT IS BEHAVIORS THAT BE FOR, IF
YOU TAKE THEM TO THE EXTREME
YOU WILL WOULD STRUGGLE TRY NOT
TO DO.
THOSE PEOPLE ARE REALLY AT RISK
FOR HAVING A MUCH HARDER TIME
RIGHT NOW.
I WILL SAY THE POPULATION AT
LARGE, GIVEN THE FACT THAT WE
ARE REALLY IN UNCHARTERED
TERRITORY FOR THE MODERN ERA,
IT CAN FEEL VERY ALARMING EVEN
TO PEOPLE --
WHAT RECOMMENDATIONS DO YOU
HAVE TWO DEAL WITH THIS NEW
NORMAL?
IT IS INTERESTING BECAUSE I
STARTED WRITING THIS OUTLINE
ABOUT A WEEK OR 10 DAYS AGO,
THINGS HAVE REALLY CHANGED NOW
SINCE THEN.
I HAVE HAD TO ADAPT WHICH IS
FINE.
WE UNDERSTAND OUR SIGNIFICANT
DISRUPTIONS TO OUR LIVES RIGHT
NOW AND THERE ARE SOME THINGS
WE CAN DO TO TRY TO KEEP AS
CALM A CENTER AS WE CAN.
THIS IS GOING FORWARD FOR
WHATEVER THE FUTURE BRINGS IN
ONE OF THE FIRST THING THAT IS
IMPORTANT IS TO TRY TO, EVEN
WITH SCHOOL OUT OR TELECOMMUTING
AND WORKING FROM HOME, WE WILL
HAVE PEOPLE SHELTERING IN
PLACE, YOU KNOW YOU WILL HAVE TO
STICK TO YOUR NORMAL ROUTINE
INSOFAR AS IT IS POSSIBLE, IN
OTHER WORDS TRY TO GET UP AT
THE SAME TIME YOU WERE GETTING
UP EVERY DAY, TRY TO EAT AT THE
SAME TIME YOU WERE EATING AT
EVERY DAY AND MAKE SURE YOU
SCHEDULE IN BREAKS IF YOU ARE
TELEWORKING.
THAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO
KEEP IN MIND.
THE OTHER THING THAT IS REALLY
IMPORTANT IS TO TRY AND GET OUT
INTO NATURE AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE.
SINCE WE NEED TO SOCIALLY
DISTANCE OURSELVES WE CAN STILL
EAT OUTSIDE, AND WE KNOW, THERE
IS SUCH GOOD RESEARCH ON HOW
NATURE MAKES US FEEL THAT HER.
WE ARE GETTING NOW INTO SPRING
AND IT WILL BE MORE AND MORE
LOVELY OUTSIDE.
EVEN IF IT IS NOT LOVELY,
EVERYONE GETTING OUT OF THE
HOUSE FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF
TIME EVERY DAY IS REALLY
IMPORTANT.
ADDING TO THAT, YOU COULD GO ON
A WALK AND IF YOU HAVE A DOG
TAKE THE DOG OUT HE WILL BE
SUPREMELY HAPPY AT GOING UP FOR
SO MANY WALKS.
THE MORE THAT YOU CAN DO THAT
THE BETTER OFF WHEN WILL BE.
ONE OF THE THINGS I THINK
THAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IS
PEOPLE ARE HAVING A LOT MORE
TIME THAN THEY EVER HAD BEFORE.
TIME WITH FAMILY, TIME TO DO
THINGS THAT THEY MAY NOT HAVE
ALWAYS WANTED TO DO, IS THAT
SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD BE
THING ABOUT NOW?
YES, THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO
SEE IF YOU CAN LEARN HOW TO
PLAY THE GUITAR.
I AM SURE THAT THERE ARE MANY
TUTORIALS ON YOUTUBE OR
MAYBE.'S SPEAKING FRENCH. ANY
OF THOSE THINGS, THIS IS TIME
TO FOCUS ON POSITIVES THAT WE
CAN POSSIBLY PULL OF --
IF WE ARE PRONE TO ANXIETY
AND YOU STILL NEED TO CONNECT
WITH FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES,
THIS IS STILL POSSIBLE RIGHT?
YES, I WAS HAPPY TO COME ON
SKYPE AND DO THIS FROM HOME.
IT FELT LIKE THIS WAS SOMETHING
IMPORTANT THAT I HAVE BEEN
DOING FOR A WHILE, AND THAT I
CARE ABOUT I ALSO FIND THAT I
CALL IN AND CHECK UP ON VARIOUS
FAMILY MEMBERS AND LOVED ONES
AROUND THE COUNTRY AND IN TOWN
AS WELL, I FIND THAT IF YOU ARE
ABLE TO USE FACETIME OR SKYPE
ON YOUR PHONE, THE REALITY OF
SEEING SOMEONE'S FACE POP UP ON
YOUR SCREEN IS REALLY LOVELY
AND IT IS WONDERFUL TO TALK TO
PEOPLE.
ALSO, IF YOU CAN AT ALL A
SCREENSHOT OF YOUR LEFT WHEN
YOU ARE TALKING TO.
THIS CAN GO A LONG WAY, WE ARE
SUCH VISUAL CREATURES, AS
HUMANS AND SO THAT IS WHAT I
RECOMMEND.
VERY CALMING.
I THINK THAT IS A VERY GOOD
THING.
