The Help They Need

During the early days of the Covid 19 pandemic, many of us were held up in our homes. Everything changed in an instant; our work, our home life, our routines. I  missed going to the gym, because exercise helps with my physical and mental health. The pandemic affected all of us in different ways. It even affected our children.

According to information published on the website of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Beyond getting sick, many young people's social, emotional and mental well being has been impacted by the pandemic. 

1 Peter 5:7 says, Casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you.

Let's realize adults and children struggle with the challenges that have been caused by the Covid 19 pandemic. Find more resources to help the children in your home, school and community at CDC.gov/Coronavirus.

Decide to Destress

Stress: It’s something most Moms can’t avoid.  But, too much stress can cause migraine headaches, insomnia, heart disease or other forms of mental and physical illnesses.

The Ohio Department of Mental Health suggestions these ways to reduce stress:

Work Off Stress: Physical activity from sports to gardening.  Develop an exercise plan that fits your lifestyle.

Talk out your worries:  Confide in a trusted friend or trained professional. You don’t have to go it alone.

Accept what you cannot change:  Recognize your limitations and the limitations of others. Develop a realistic, yet positive attitude.

How will you distress this week?
