Accepting anxiety as COVID-19 looms

Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 researcher Tom Hollenstein on ways of coping with stress as the world deals with the coronavirus.

With the threat of COVID-19 gripping the world, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 professor Tom Hollenstein uses his research into how we manage emotions to offer insight into how we are dealing with weeks of disruption, near isolation and the threat of getting sick.

카지노 게임 컬렉션Resisting anxiety is part of the anxiety,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션There are things we just don카지노 게임 컬렉션t know, and we need to accept that. We need to accept the uncertainty. We are all anxious and that카지노 게임 컬렉션s not bad or wrong. Things have changed in the world. We are getting more information faster and faster and things seem more imminent than ever before.

After Dr. Hollenstein카지노 게임 컬렉션s classes were cancelled due to the coronavirus outbreak, he decided to write something for his students to help them cope. Because that message for his students can be applied to everyone, he also published it on Medium.

카지노 게임 컬렉션카지노 게임 컬렉션The most prominent feature of the current situation is the difficulty to predict what will happen, a loss of control,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Dr. Hollenstein says in his research piece. 카지노 게임 컬렉션This is true on the best of days but may be more intense with uncertainty about the global situation we are in. The most successful approaches in these situations involve controlling what you can and trying to accept the rest.카지노 게임 컬렉션

Dr. Hollenstein also talks about trying to distract yourself to lower your anxiety which could include reading a novel, playing a game, watching a movie, doing some spring cleaning, baking or cooking 카지노 게임 컬렉션 things you카지노 게임 컬렉션ve always said you wished you카지노 게임 컬렉션d had time for. He also says people should reexamine the situation 카지노 게임 컬렉션 for example instead of asking 카지노 게임 컬렉션what does this mean for me?카지노 게임 컬렉션 you could say 카지노 게임 컬렉션what does it mean for others.카지노 게임 컬렉션

카지노 게임 컬렉션Reframing the situation also could work,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션The entire world is grappling with their uncertainties, responses, and self- or other-imposed social distancing, just like you. We are all in this together. There are very few moments in which we can perceive the entire planet sharing the same experience. Often this comes from common threat. This may not diminish your anxiety, but it might change your sense of feeling alone or lonely over the coming weeks.카지노 게임 컬렉션

He adds social support is also critical as the world waits for life to normalize. 카지노 게임 컬렉션We should think of this as distant socializing instead of social distancing. Providing support to others, even in a digital way, is just as effective if we are alone and anxious. New technology allows us to transcend time and space and engage each other just enough to get us through this.카지노 게임 컬렉션
