SO WHAT HELPS?
MENTAL WELLBEING REFLECTION DURING TIMES OF CHANGE
A PERSONAL REFLECTION
This week was pretty good. As we move past the shock and awe phase, I have found
these 8 things to be helpful to me:
1. Keep the peace at home. Do nice things for each other like bringing a cup of coffee or
a special snack.
7. 7
2. My mom and I have been living Facebook Portal plus. It looks like a huge iPad and I
can see her as big as real life. The camera follows you around and Zooms in and out
(about 180-degree wide shot). Works with Facebook messenger and Whatโs App. Has
Alexa built-in. We plan to put it on the dining room table and invite friends for virtual
meals. We donโt want our parents to feel isolated - I cannot stress how much these
visual calls help. My mom (who hasnโt left her apartment in weeks) did a group for
several of her friends yesterday
3. Checking in with a small group of closest friends if they are available at a certain time
and then hosting a Zoom call. The best hour and 15 minutes of my week for sure! Deep
conversation, learning from each other, and a lot of fun - Outlander on Netflix and Starz
and Big Little Lies on Amazon were most binge-worthy recommendations.
4. My friend Holly challenged me and her mom challenged her to find a new craft. My
daughter and I have been making resin (hard plastic) designs with molds we bought at
Amazon and Michaels. Easy and fun. Iโll post some images later.
5. Speaking of Amazon- just bought a lot of toilet paper ๐งป- will come in a week or so
which is fine. Itโs been 3 weeks since I have seen TP in the stores
6. Finding purpose. Through my company, we have been doing Speed Mentoring
sessions weekly for free for professionals called โRemote, Not Isolatedโ. The sessions
are enlightening and I am personally connecting at more meaningful levels to people.
Several companies have reached out to see if we could offer them in-house for their
employees! The next session will be โMentoring@Seaโ a nautical voyage around
LeaderSHIP in times of change. More details HERE
7. Being part of group meetings. College, Chamber, Coffee Chats, Meditation, Exercise,
Charities we support. Finding a few and then attending weekly. I so appreciate people
who are the connectors of others. I tried out a few this week and especially love the eye
to eye contact through Zoom, Adobe Connects. We are all in the same boat.
8. Getting out. Social distancing walks. Marc and I ride down AIA in Boca Raton to
Pompano or Delray on our bikes or electric scooters. We have been fortunate with good
weather. Every day at 5:30 or 6 pm we do this.
8. 8
My friend Verne Harnish suggested the Fโs! I have a white board where I now make
sure I am taking some action on all 7.
