Connecting with an Older, Wiser, Healthy You Take twenty minutes to grab a cup of tea and your journal and connect with your inner wisdom to help yourself get through this. Back to blog posts Posted by Eve Menezes Cunningham on April 7th 2020 Covid-19 Resources Share Tweet LinkedIn Pin I know you’re busy but can you take even twenty minutes to grab a cup of tea and your journal and connect with your inner wisdom to help yourself get through this? Make yourself comfortable. Ask your imaginary Future You for some advice to help you today. Tomorrow. Next week. Write down everything that occurs to you. Connect with this inner resource you always have access to. Think about your day to day life. How everything changed SO abruptly in March 2020 (for Ireland and the UK). Maybe how everything felt so uncertain, scary and how you found your resilience and adapted. What messages does Future You have about how you were able to do this? What about your priorities? What worried you most? What quickly lost its importance? What became most important to you? What advice does Future You have for Current You about keeping that clarity? What about loved ones? How did you connect more deeply in spite of the physical distance in so many cases? What did you learn about love? What lessons does Future You have for you? What about health and fitness? What was most challenging? How did you overcome these challenges? How did you manage to turn it into a positive and actually improve your health and fitness? How did you stay healthy and positive and as you continued working? I’m fully aware that we have no idea how this will pan out but whether we survive it or not, right now, we’re better off imagining having come through it than giving into anxiety. What answers surprised you?
