As a culture, death is something that isn’t talked about openly, so we tend to shove down or push away the truth of our progression from birth to death, and the fact that our deaths are inevitable. It’s the one thing that we are guaranteed, and yet, we operate under this illusion that we have full control over our bodies and how long we live. With the existence of a new threat to our physical health, this reality is forcing us to see that we don’t have full control, and my goal today is to help you find the peace and calm that is available to you right now in this pandemic.

We always get to look for opportunities in any circumstance, and the same is true of money. Whatever your thoughts were about money and your ability to make it before the virus hit are still the same thought patterns today. Just because the headlines and social media might be mirroring your beliefs about money doesn’t mean they’re objective or true, and taking control of your thinking is going to help you create results you actually want during this time.

I’ve discussed here in previous episodes about how our brains love being efficient and so the thoughts that you think repeatedly start happening constantly and unconsciously. The same is true in our bodies, which can be proven by muscle memory. These ingrained thoughts become a mental habit, and so no matter the circumstance, virus or no virus, they’re running the same way.

Many people have no idea what they truly want because there’s an added element of considering what they “should” do or what is expected of them to do. Once thought work is added into the mix, it can add another layer of confusion because the understanding that thoughts are optional makes it even more difficult to identify what you really want.

In the midst of what feels like chaos and frenzy, most of us are seeking some stability and familiarity. Staying focused and productive in some area of your life and feeling connected to other people are two ways of doing this, and I’m offering my recommendations of how you can create productivity and connection reasonably and realistically.

reading the news constantly and scrolling through social media isn’t doing you any good. While your primitive brain sees it as a way to protect you from danger by identifying what could be a threat, your mental health is deteriorating in the process. Continuing to fixate on your physical health is not going to serve you, and on this episode, I’m outlining why it’s so important to prioritize your mental and emotional health instead.
