Ep5 | Navigating Difficult Times- Resources, Tools and Reflections on a Hard Year
Laura and Courtney reflect on the difficult times in their lives and how they’ve navigated them. Since difficult times will always come and go, they figured it is better to be prepared for the hardships in advance and give some tools they have found effective in their lives.
In this episode we discuss:
-How a motivation for doing regular self-care is to help navigate difficult times.
-Reflections on staying aware and present during difficulties & how slowing down is hard but it often helps!
-The racing mind & anxiety during difficult times.
-Sometimes difficulties can be a breaking down of the old to move us into the new.
-Suggestions on changing perspective and looking at situations from different angles.
-How taking care of our own mental health is one of the kindest things we can do for our friends and family.
