Thoughts on Re-emerging Post Pandemic

Athena Wellness Podcast - Reclaiming Our Warrior Spirit

#038 Today is Wednesday, time for a little wellness boost - a shortened episode to keep your Warrior Vibe high. I bet many of you, like me, are sensing a bit of a shift. Last year at this time, the pandemic was taking hold and the future felt fearful and uncertain. Today, there’s hope of a return to some sense of normalcy.

Today I wanted to share some thoughts on post-pandemic life. A recent American Psychological Association survey found that 49 percent of adults feel uncomfortable about returning to in-person interaction when the pandemic ends. And 46% don’t feel comfortable returning to pre-pandemic life.

Many of us have experienced some sense of trauma – losing someone we love, being on the front lines as an essential worker or being separated and isolated, to name a few. As a result, our next steps can feel tentative.

I’ll be sharing three themes and three suggestions to make your journey back into the world a little easier. If you’re looking for community as you find your way in the post-pandemic world and journaling about these topics is of interest to you, consider joining the Deepening the Conversation Writing Practice.
