you can use to manage your stress during this time of COVID-19:
BREATHE: make time throughout
the day to do deep breathing exercises. Inhale through your nose and exhale
through your mouth several times in a day. This process will help you to
increase the oxygen in your blood. When oxygenated blood flows to your brain,
it helps to make you feel more peaceful and less stressed.

EXERCISE: get regular exercise
to boost your energy and overall sense of well-being. Whether you work out with
a Pilates video in your living room; lift weights in your basement; join an aerobics
class via Zoom; or take a walk around your neighborhood, a regular exercise
routine will help to make your mind and body feel better. Another good benefit
of a regular exercise routine is that it will also help to improve your self-esteem.
A high level of self-esteem makes you feel good about yourself. When you feel
good about yourself, you feel as if you can handle whatever comes your way. Make
it a habit during COVID-19 to engage in regular exercise.
ENJOY
SANCTUARY TIME:
carve out time in your day and designate a special place in your home for
sanctuary time. This will be time for you and you alone. Sanctuary time lets
you take moments for yourself. Spend your sanctuary time in a spot that gives
you a renewed sense of peace. Your sanctuary time can be first thing in the
morning as you wash up in the bathroom; during the middle of the day as you meditate
in your office; or later in the evening as you unwind in your living room. As
long as you have private time to meditate, plan, and find peace, your sanctuary
time can be whenever and wherever you decide. Commit to enjoying sanctuary time
on several occasions within your week.

VISIT
WITH LOVED ONES:
maintain your personal and professional relationships during this time. Even
though social distancing has become the norm, you can still connect with your
family, friends, and colleagues. Sure, you will be using technology a lot more
to connect with them now. The goal is to spend time engaged in conversation, laugher
and connections to keep your spirits lifted. Phone calls, text messages, face-time
sessions, Zoom meetings, and virtual parties are all ways you can visit with
loved ones right now. Make a commitment to yourself to visit with a loved one
each week until this pandemic is over.
