My lovely friend Dorota has spent the last year or so working in China and so has kindly asked friends to share their messages with us about covid:

Self-#quarantined at home for two months at home in Beijing already. So far, how has the “experiment” been?😏 There was certainly fear and anxiety at the beginning, but I learned to embrace my fear, knowing it was trying to tell me something deeper about myself. I choose to #trust life and allow life to work for me and through me. I’ve learned that the true power of “#Freedom” is inside of me, regardless of how the external appears. I’ve learned to live a more #conscious lifestyle, one that is more aligned with who I truly am, physically, spiritually, mentally. Thanks to the quarantine, I got time to take online courses and got the certificate as a “#Transformation Life Coach”. Coronavirus, this too shall pass. Let’s embrace the uncertainty ahead and support each other. 💖 Warmest🌞 thoughts to everyone.

Practical ways of dealing with the emotions we are experiencing

I’ve been doing some online learning to increase my knowledge of narrative therapy and found this amazing resource put together by Chinese narrative therapists which has some really wise insights and also some very practical tools about how to deal with covid.  Take a look here.
