S9Ep8 - The Mental Health Series: Dealing with the Covid Chaos

<p><span style="font-weight: 300;">COVID has disrupted our lives and led to isolation and fear for many people.  There are the twin fears of getting sick and losing loved ones, and then the fear of losing one’s job and other economic consequences.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">In difficult times, it often helps to read or observe the writings and experiences of those who have experienced harder times than you.  Dr. Puder and Matt cover some of Victor Frankl’s</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 300;">Man’s Search for Meaning</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 300;">and how Victor Frankl, a psychiatrist and Jewish person, survived the holocaust and ultimately worked to find meaning in the worst of times.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Ultimately, the best way is to find ways to build order amidst the chaos--whether it be making your bed, doing your dishes, getting dressed despite staying home, and building habits and routines whether you’re working or suddenly find yourself working from home.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">This podcast originally aired soon after many things shut down due to COVID, but it applies today as much as then.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Check out Dr. David Puder’s podcast here: </span> <a href= "https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/</span></a><span style="font-weight: 300;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">GET STARTED with one-on-one online coaching FOR FREE!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Get your FIRST MONTH FREE on all strength and nutrition coaching plans.  No discount code needed and includes a 10-day, no obligation trial. </span> <a href="https://bit.ly/2MKeOoh"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://bit.ly/2MKeOoh</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Special offers from BLOC and our partners: </span> <a href= "https://barbell-logic.com/offers/"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://barbell-log
