Are you struggling with an anxious knot in your stomach? Are you feeling overwhelmed and exhausted? Finding that COVID is taking over your life and your mood? Pam can help
COVID has taken away much of the control we have over our lives. The one thing we do have is the ability to create calm and resilience in our inner world. Pam has worked with the BBC, Huffi ngton Post, Grazia and The Telegraph and has some great tips for our Darling readers.
Relationships under threat
Our relationships have been stripped back. The scaffolding that we rely on has been taken away. The support that we would have gained from family friends and gym buddies, to name a few, are not available. Apart from not having the support structures we are now battling with uncertainty, anxiety and the stress that we are all living under. Couple this with home schooling and the impact of the prolonged time spent in each other’s company and we are facing the perfect storm.
Managing anxiety
We have to add another component which is our own personal style of managing stress and anxiety: our attachment styles. Are you the one reminding everyone to socially distance before you walk out the door? Or perhaps you may be the one that would really like your partner to stop nagging as you are abiding by the rules? Our attachment style is nature’s way for us to keep safe in times when we may be triggered by anxiety and stress. There is a way to fi nd our own internal equanimity by mastering our response to stress and using techniques that work in a matter of minutes.
