hi guys welcome back to my channel a lot
of week we had didn't we
it's been a serious roller coaster of
emotions and just digesting everything
that's happening around the world
obviously we are in kind of a emergency
state around the world and I was feeling
it everywhere so I really wanted to make
this video just to kind of check in with
you and let you guys know what I'm doing
these days and what's happening in
general I feel like the last four days
been probably just like a wave of
emotions it's really sad to hear about
all the cases the mortality cases that
happen and just hearing about how fast
the corona bys virus is spreading but I
am also in a place I just made a post
actually on Instagram and I kind of feel
like today I really feel very connected
to everyone around the world
I just am super thankful more than ever
for technology and for having all these
virtual friends and community that I
just feel supported I just love seeing
the gestures and the positivity that's
happening online
amid of all this craziness we are self
isolating as a family obviously there
are people that are more in danger of
contracting the virus but I just feel
like it really is every human's job to
try and do their best and I feel like
self isolating is the best thing that we
can do right now in Canada we don't have
a lockdown yet but things are shutting
down slowly so today actually they came
out saying how our province the
restaurants and fitness gyms again all
of that is getting closed I hoped for it
to be a lockdown because I think it's
just necessary but I think that we're
just doing it slowly so that's kind of
like a positive thing in my opinion
we've been at home for about five days
now and I'm still working full effect
like because for some reason I'm just
like so much more inspired to create
content to share things with you to you
know obviously talk about the situation
and being there to support you through
my content but also you know creating
content that can just maybe alleviate
some of the stress and anxiety that I'm
sure people are feeling it's a lot of
they're just right now my team is
working from home we all decided it's
gonna be for the best I want to make
sure they're safe we're all trying to
figure out the kids have been home for a
long time now mm-hmm and it's been
something but I'm I wanted to share with
you just kind of like how I deal with
kind of distress and chaos I'm sure that
everyone is experiencing different
things if you are alone without your
family I'm sure it's very it's very sad
and scary probably to be alone so I just
want to let you know that if you need
anything please reach out to me if you
are a mom with kids at home I feel for
you it's actually insane to see how much
energy they consume which made me more
than ever being grateful for all the
teachers and the school systems and
everything you guys are angels but yeah
so just figure out their schedule but I
have to say that the last few days have
also been a little bit of like a
revelation to me I think that we always
talk about the fact that the world is
moving so fast and we're doing
everything and there's no time to
breathe and we all have this anxiety and
but I haven't realized how fast I've
been moving until a couple of days ago
when I I was forced to stop moving and
stop doing and just being here I think
I've realized how many basic things I
haven't been enjoying for so long now
just enjoying my coffee or having a
conversation with my kids
even spending time alone with Gary and
we did a workout today just him and I it
was actually so fun who never worked out
together so it's this little things
we've been going through like a list of
movies we wanted to watch with the kids
reading different books and just really
being together without it being so
planned and structured and it's been
it's been beautiful and I think that
with Maxie it's the most impactful for
me because I feel like since I gave
birth it's been gogogo for me and I feel
like he grew overnight and I just missed
all of it so even seeing him figure
things out and walking aimlessly around
the house it's just such a joy like I
really get lost in his little world so I
do see you know the silver lining of the
situation and I'm extremely grateful
that my family is safe and I'm really
trying to focus on that as much as I can
it just really made me to slow down and
even enjoy like brushing teeth in the
morning like it's been crazy it's been
very much of like a consciousness
situation you know these are the times
where it's like the universe is giving
us the opportunity to reconnect to our
own bodies to our own souls their own
spirit to our own mind and just really
feeling grateful and present which I
feel like we definitely don't feel that
way on a daily basis with our crazy life
these days so I feel like I've been
really focusing on that I think that
helped me the most when it came to
moments of panic or anxiety or
uncertainty about the future just really
like okay I have now and this is what I
have and what can I do with it and just
looking around aimlessly and seeing the
beauty and the calmness around so I'm
very grateful for that so hopefully this
will inspire you to slow down and to
just kind of look around also a great
time to dive into the books you haven't
had time to read too
you get a course online to do different
things like today I decided I'm gonna
launch this like virtual retreat where
I'm gonna create on Instagram an IG live
with different experts that I'll bring
in to teach me different things and I
want to give you you know that value and
that benefit so I'm gonna have like
breathwork workshop and meditation and
mental health
you know hacks diet nutrition fitness so
I'm really excited for that and
hopefully it will benefit people but
also I really want to I can't stress
this enough I hope that all of you are
taking this very seriously we're all in
this together and we have to act
together in order to stop this and to
find a resolution for me I just AM
applauding the help system the nurses
the doctors everyone that's working
crazy I was trying to take care of
everybody so please please please do
your part stay at home if you can't stay
at home which I understand that all of
us are that privileged please take the
right precautions and just make sure
you're taking care of yourself and your
family and those around you I think that
there was there was an article I was
reading on CNN that's saying that there
are people that carrying the virus
without even any symptoms so that's why
self isolation is probably the best
solution at this point until we'll find
a better solution which hopefully will
come soon in a form of a vaccine or
something something will come I'm sure
of it so just do that take it seriously
you know advocate for self-oscillation
and advocate to take care of yourselves
of people of people around you if you
see anyone needs support needs help
especially the elderly with groceries or
any like good deeds just this is the
time for us to show our the goodness in
humanity so hopefully you guys feel as
strongly about this as I do thank you
guys so much for watching and
stay safe I love you and I hope you're
all taking care of yourselves
you
