NO MORE BAD NEWS, PLEASE: MY STRATEGIES FOR STAYING AWARE YET IN TUNE WITH YOUR OWN INNER VOICE DURING THESE WEIRD TIMES…

WRITTEN BY SHARRA GREENE

It has been A LOT going on. I’m sure by now y’all have enough tutorials on how to wash your hands, social distancing, etc. etc… so instead of lecturing you on that, I’m here with a few tips on how to tend to your mind and spirit during this chaotic and confusing time. These are a few things that have been helping me…

1) LESS CONSUMPTION, MORE CREATION & CHECKING ON MY PEOPLE

This morning I took a break from my phone because I’m tired of the Corona Virus square at the top of my Twitter and I know I’m not the only one… it’s a difference between staying informed and being harrassed with fear so I’ve limited my time looking at news to once every two days… that’s enough to know what’s going on and still spend the rest of my day on working on things that I actually can control. Then, I’ll take an occasional break from content or business admin and send a quick text or call a loved one, just to make sure they’re okay. For people who struggle with anxiety, actually speaking with your loved ones during a time of social isolation can be very grounding and comforting.

2) JOURNALING & PRAYER

Anyone who knows me knows these two things keep me sane on a regular basis anyway. But with everything going on, I been heavy on the journaling and taking all my concerns to God and leaving it there. For many, this time in society is bringing up feelings of fear, uncertainty, sadness, and stress for a lot of us. Writing my feelings down helps me release it so I’m not walking around in that same negative state because if you didn’t know, being in a low vibrational state actually makes you more physically susceptible to sickness. Again, focusing on the things we actually can control. 

3) LISTENING TO UPLIFTING MUSIC

Music is also healing. These are a few songs with a positive message that’s been in heavy rotation over here.

Just a collection of songs to renew strength, hope, and joy during rough times!

I’m sending well wishes and positivity your way and I pray you and your loved ones are all safe and healthy during this time! Thank you so much for being on my list! Your support means a lot and I can’t wait to see what 2020 has in store for us all when all this craziness is over!

Love,

Sharra
