Let’s cover the basics:

• FEELINGS/EMOTIONS Lean into whatever emotions and moods you are experiencing: the good, bad, ugly, funny, ironic- it all matters. Explore it if you can but always acknowledge whatever comes up. No need to shame it- just acknowledge the presence.

• MINDSET Channel anxiety or looped thinking into useful therapeutic activity: journal, EFT or tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique), exercise, painting or other forms of artistry, dance (also totally art!), breath work, connect with nature outdoors, or allow yourself to unwind in a peaceful, accessible space of your choosing.  Please limit your use of alcohol or drugs, if you choose to imbibe at all. This is a time when clarity of mind is so helpful.

• MEANING Consistently connect with what is soulfully meaningful to you. This could mean God, Goddess, Jesus, Kuan Yin, nature, the soul, the great unknown, the idea of peace and connection- whatever it is it is meaningful to you and that is all that matters. This could look like attending a place of worship in person or online, listening to healing music, meditation, prayer, pulling cards, gardening, cooking- whatever it is that lightens up your heart, mind and body: do it and do it regularly. Daily practices for the win! If you don’t have a practice in place, start researching ways people connect to the deeper aspects of life and see what speaks to you. If it sparks your curiosity or feels uplifting or exciting to you- you’re headed in the right direction.

• CONNECTION Have people to openly, truly connect and share with. If you don’t have that at home, find it through friends or turn to connection spots online. The internet can be a great place of solace and connection for good hearted people looking for other good hearted people.

• LIGHTEN THE LOAD Don’t forget to make humor, smiling, and laughter a priority as often as you can.

• PHYSICAL Get focused on your physical wellness- a gentle goal of at least 30 minutes of movement in every day. Yoga, walking, Tai Chi, active cleaning, dancing or an online/in-person exercise class all are perfect ways to get your body going.

• IMMUNE SUPPORT Practice your ABCDE’s daily.  I mean take your vitamins, sweet ones!  Get your vitamin A, B’s, C, D and D3, and E. Building up your immune system in stressful times is incredibly beneficial.  You can further bolster your immunity with things like colostrum, olive leaf extract, and oil of oregano. Health is one of the manifested aspects of our wealth/prosperity.

• VITALITY LEVEL Eat fresh veggies and fruit daily, and get at least a few minutes of safe sunlight every day if you can. Living foods bring life/vitality to the body. Sunlight brings warmth, vigor, and focus.
   

Your feeling well can make such a brilliant impact in the world around you, especially when so many are focused fully on dysfunction and strife. It’s a lovingly rebellious act to care about oneself in times of intensity and change. Drop me a note in the comments to let me know all the ways you are keeping your vitality and wellness at optimal levels. Take care of you, and I’m sending you my best + lots of love and prayer for your highest wellness- it is your divine right to be well and live well.
