We continue to fight the Good Fight! Whether calls to politicians or using various platforms to offer up hopeful messages, both faithful and enciteful!
Thank you for telling us about the 5 calls app. I know to call and have made a few, but this makes it so much easier. I feel I have done Jesus’ triumphal entry on this Palm Sunday, justice by making my calls to empire to overturn the evil that threatens life daily by making calls this morning.
Self care has not been one of my strengths. It has been a fascinating personal process to curtail social media and news feeds. On one hand, social media gave me a sense belonging as I watched how other people lived. And the other hand threw a curve ball right at my face and said "you are watching other peoples lives and what are you doing with your own?" I am sitting here reading the real fear of people in these unstable times and acknowledging how this instability evolved. I am writing to protest, to comfort, to inspire, to nurture, to connect with real people.
I needed this reminder so badly!! When spinning in a storm of anxiety it’s often difficult to remember to do these things that will ground me. I’ve screenshotted the most important things I need to remember. Keep up the good work!!!
I've noticed how increasingly hard it has become to regulate my nervous system. Self-isolation is my usual go-to, but it is self-defeating in the end. Thank you for the insights and practices!
That may be a sign that you need co-regulation and engagement. Being around organizers is helpful because they know how to channel sympathetic activation strategically.
Thank you for this wise look at how to cope with unprecedented chaos. I, too, have spent much of my life feeling exposed and unsafe rather than seen and protected. The balance of practices you suggest here seems as though it will be very helpful. Blessings!
This is so important. Thank you so much!
I struggle in many of the ways you do, and it really helps to know I'm not alone in this. Thanks for writing.

That’s a great Palm Sunday practice

Definitely. And so easy to be deluded into thinking and feeling that is real.
ASocial media is helpful for connection, but it can also become a distraction from our own lives and relationships.

Thank you! I’m so glad it’s helpful. And yes, that anxiety storm can carry us away easily.
