Coronavirus Safe Space

 

At the start of the year, we asked the question, why are we here? It's crucial to know "why" we are doing things in order to accept them, understand them and hopefully abide by them. Above are the facts about the disease and the reasons why we are taking precautions.  Please read it and discuss the following. I want you to feel free to speak about your experience with what's happening today.

• How are you feeling? 
• How has your daily routine been disrupted? 
• How has your family been impacted? 
• How are you taking care of yourself? 

 Share with us a little about what this experience has been like for you.

Digital distraction lifehacks

You spent the month of February keeping track of your digital digestion and hopefully it's give you some insight into your habits around your personal device. Recent studies have shown that we're all spending a lot of time passively wasting our lives away on our devices. So for this post I want you to share a "hack" that you do, or want to try, to cut back on your screen time and reclaim more focus in your life. Here's some tips to get you started or give you some ideas:

• Listen to music without words while studying or reading. Check out Noisili. It's an app that operates like a noise box that improves your ability to work. Choose audio from rushing water, trees rustling, or a running fan to create that atmosphere of stress-free productivity.
• Getting sucked into a technology black hole is as simple as tapping open your phone. When you need to focus, and I mean really focus, it's all but impossible to pull yourself away from the distraction that is social media. Cold Turkey is an app designed to help you get on your grind.
