Whatever you are feeling during this trying time, it’s important to acknowledge that this isn’t normal.  And it’s alright if you are not operating at your usual full speed. Give yourself and your family a break. Right now, it’s important to keep our mental state healthy and secure in this time of crisis.

In this post, we describe why “Self-care Is a MUST Today More Than Ever.” Remember. taking care of yourself is not an indulgence and it’s not selfish–especially now. It’s important to overcome stress and not let it take control.

Look to the future, as this too will end. Make plans to keep yourself and your family looking towards a time where you can treat yourselves to an outing you’ll all enjoy.
