At the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, my daughter and I took a few minutes each day to learn how to shoot a basketball. I watched a YouTube video that taught us how to stand, hold our arms, and then shoot for the net. I can’t remember if my daughter said it first, or I did, but we started saying “picture the arc” to the other person when it was their turn to shoot.
Day 149: Build Ourselves Up
I lost track of how many days my family and I have been sheltering in my house due to the Coronavirus pandemic. I know it’s over 30 days, but life has been a blur with work, stress, more work, more stress, and trying to navigate dealing with anxiety and raising children in an uncertain world.
To keep my spirits up, I’ve added certain rituals to my normal routine. I write or exercise but I’ve added in daily meditation and then listening to self-help podcasts.
