Who would have thought that a year ago that the pandemic would wreck our lives so dramatically and that it would be still ongoing? Many of us have had significant amendments to their daily lives: home schooling, working from home and limited social activities which have each played their part in taking a toll on our wellbeing. A recent study has found that we experience a spectrum of emotions these days, with stress and anxiety topping the list.
The events of the past year have highlighted the importance of paying attention to the wellbeing of yourself and others. It is crucial to find a moment in your day to unwind, relax and recharge, even though it might sound impossible and all we want to do is to jet off on holiday. While holidays might be something that we don’t have access to right now, there are other relaxation activities that you can do to help you reduce your anxiety and stress. The key is to find at least two minutes in your day and dedicate them to relaxation, on your own or together with your family.
