ver since the beginning of the Covid quarantine era, it has become too easy to feel isolated and alone. This has no doubt had psychological effects on the world population. This situation has left many people with questions on how to integrate back into society. The “new normal” is anything but. For months on end, faceto-face classes were cancelled, masks were mandated, and vaccinations were debated. Now that these precautions are becoming less stringent, how do people adapt? The answer to this question is still not clear. However, quarantine has given everyone plenty of time for reflection. With this comes a greater understanding for ourselves and our abilities. Sense of self in today’s “new normal” is imperative. Nowadays, it’s easy to get into the routine of eat, sleep, work, and repeat. Covid reinforced the toxic “all work, no play” ideals and took away the enjoyable aspects of life, like hanging out with friends or going to a concert. To break out of that box, use this time of self-reflection to get motivated.
