Managing Stress and Anxiety During Covid-19

It's human to feel stress, especially when our day-to-day lives don't look of feel the same as they used to.  Sometimes stress can lead us to respond in unhelpful ways - like turning to food or alcohol for comfort.  And with Covid-19, stress and anxiety go hand-in-hand.  So how do we manage it all?  For starters, everyone needs to look after one's own basic needs to stay mentally healthy in a stressful time. To help us explore ways to manage stress and practice self-care we turned to Licensed Professional Counselor Katherine Jansen-Byrkit, author of the book River to Ocean: Living in the Flow of Wakefulness. Her book reflects the human voyage of finding your way to an awakened self.
