How to stay sane?!? Like, what I mean is, how can you maintain a certain modicum of groundedness when literally inundated by an unprecedented assault of mania, left and right? Don't tell me to shut-off the news, or lay off social media, or take to the current hermit lifestyle till this pandemic settles; not happening.
Last night people up a floor were having a good time; waft of ciggie's, lots of laughs, some loud over excited convo about whatever, then more fake laughs. It almost felt like a normal Saturday evening if it weren't for the fact that our Covid numbers are insane, businesses are dying - stock market is dead, and the government is certifiably unhinged! --
Check out the numerous depression, anxiety and health groups online and you'd be shocked by the indescribable volume of people desperately seeking help. Only, there isn't any real - help.
It's like a bug in your brain, everything that's happening, crawling...clawing...hatching eggs of doom and desperation as we go on trying to keep a straight face to the world.
Advice on how to keep faith is everywhere, It might as well fall on deaf ears. Talk is cheap. What we need is to hack resilience...now. We need to muscle our brains so we don't do stupid out of anxiety, confusion, fear, and loneliness. Drugs and drama or drinks won't get you out of a pandemic funk.
This is why I do AFFIRMMATIONS. I'm not a pro, but it gets me somewhere above all the crap.
I'm not religious either - but I take spirituality seriously as tea. I believe that you can genuinely rebuild your mind, as well as, softly relax its sore spots by instructing those grey cells what it needs to concentrate on. You ought to juice up the brains with the truth that power is within to stay strong!
Today's affirmation prayer centers on how "The Power to Say the Right Word" can lift your mind and soothe your tired soul. Whisper it to yourself. Feel how the ripple of syllables works wonders to restore your senses. Let it clarify your mind like only a fresh sweet river of thought can do. Try it.
