“If you had an old routine, try to stick to that. This has helped me keep my head on straight massively. But also be kind to yourself. If I have a day where I’m really not feeling writing, I take the day to read or bake or catch up on a marketing course–anything that feels inspiring!”

“If you’re feeling down, reach out, don’t think you’re alone, because you aren’t. We’re all feeling trapped, in one way or another. Reaching out eases that claustrophobic feeling.”

“I would like to tell people to try and stay sane in these crazy times, if they feel a dose of anxiety, that’s natural, they should embrace it and try to find a way to feel better, different people have different strategies for it…”

“Try to focus on the good in your life right now. There’s an end to all of this, you might not be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel right now, but it’s coming. Things won’t be like this forever.”

“I believe this is a special time and we each are being asked to do whatever it is we are best at. You are part of a whole, and by keeping your own vibe high, you are doing your part to heal the world right now. Don’t be afraid to be a little self-indulgent, either. Smile even when you don’t feel like smiling, even if you have nobody to smile at – it’ll trick your brain into feeling good!”

“I hope and pray that everyone is staying safe and sane during this crazy time in our world. If I had any tips or advice to share, I’d say to be kind to yourself. Create obtainable goals.”

“Focus on your hobbies, on what you’re passionate about. If you’ve lost touch with them over the years, pick them back up again. Or find a new hobby, something you’ve always wanted to do but never had the time. Because you got the time now!”

“We’ve found time to do all the things we’ve been putting off for ages – decorating and getting the vegetable garden into shape for planting. The house will come out of this looking smart for the first time since we moved in.”

“I find time spent in the garden relaxing and inspiring, all the tiny creatures are still going about their lives oblivious of the trauma. No lockdown for them!”
