Stop Doing This In Lockdown! Our Emotional Health Depends on It!

<p>Greetings everyone .</p> <p>I hope you are coping as best you can, now that we are into the first full week of lockdown.</p> <p>Now, much has been said about lockdown and the fact that it can go one of two ways, if we don't have our eye on how we cope for these next four weeks. I've spoken in several podcasts about the impact of this supposed ‘new normal’, with one of the biggest impacts being the extent to which people are affected by low mood as a consequence of having their lives and their movements impacted by the lockdown. And this thing is no joke. The NHS is seeing record increases in people requesting some form of therapeutic help to get them through a day - much less getting them through the impact of this pandemic on the rest of their lives.</p> <p>But what I want to talk about in this week’s episode is what research shows that the rest of us may be doing at home as we wait for the lockdown to pass. And, in particular, how some of the habits we are developing  may not be beneficial to us when we try to pick up our lives in the new normal world that will surely follow this pandemic.</p> <p>You’re going to find this interesting so get ready to measure yourself against what research says we’re all doing, whilst we sit at home waiting for this pandemic and lockdown to pass.</p> <p>If this podcast lights a spark in you to aim for something different, then I invite you to purchase a copy of the Start Your Business Workbook and Planner and to hold onto your copy of the book, because you will need the book to get into my free business coaching course, where I will support you to start your own side hustle or small business by the end of March 2021.   You will find the links you need to purchase a copy of the book, at the bottom of the show notes where you are listening to this podcast.
