PURPOSEFUL JOY
Living through a pandemic is going to have lasting effects on the collective mental health of the world’s population. It was a heavy year last year, and we still have a long way to go before getting to the other side of this. Sometimes it can be hard to remember times when we were not steeped in uncertainty. It can be hard to let go of our stress and we can often find ourselves drifting in our thoughts even when you are trying to relax. It can help to try and make space for both emotions.
COPING WITH THE WINTER BLUES
With the holiday season upon us, there is an emphasis on positive feelings of joys and happiness. Images of laughing faces, and pleasant get-togethers are posted on every street corner, and in every other television advertisement. Co-workers talk excitedly about the plans they have for the upcoming weeks, “This is the best time of the year”. And there you are, sullen, morose, and with barely enough energy to carry you through the day. Begrudgingly waking up every morning, trying to find new ways to convince yourself that you can make it through the day.
