We hope that you are doing well. Despite all this negativity, fear and anxiety that is circulating the world right now, we hope that in this moment you are finding peace.
At times of crisis it can be so hard to stick our heads out of the swarm, to find that island in the torrent of fear. But it is also a beautiful time to find a moment to generate love and care for our community. At the moment we have people in dire need, people who cannot face the crowds for whatever reason and those who right now feel lost and left behind.
Remember those people, when you are rushing in the supermarket, chasing up that toilet roll or fretting over the daily management of your life. This is not to diminish the panic you may be feeling, you are completely entitled to feel whatever you are feeling, but more to raise the opportunity to help (in a safe way) those who most need it.
Not everyone has a support network to fall back on at times like this, they may be away from their families, may be emotionally or mentally distancing themselves or even could just be too scared to ask for help. There is a wonderful initiative that is starting up all around the world, little calling cards that can be filled out and delivered to your neighbours or people you know may need a hand. But if this is not something you feel comfortable doing please just take the time to check in, ask your loved ones if they are ok, smile and check that the old person stumbling around the supermarket is ok, ask your colleagues and boss if they are ok. We are all processing this in our own ways and the main thing is not to loose our connection.
Remember to take care of yourself, drink lots of water, eat lots of vegetables, reduce time online and do things that relax and nourish you. We can all do our part to stay healthy.
Sending you all our love,
