Today's session uses the B.I.G. structure for the podcast. Our idea of the day will be Mindfulness, accompanied with some basic instructions and how it affects neuropathways in the brain. Join us on Facebook in the Last 8% Project, a community offering resources and support in this challenging time, linked here https://www.facebook.com/groups/thelast8project. Music by @nop on CC Mixter, http://beta.ccmixter.org/people/Lancefield. In a very short time, we are working from home, or we have lost our job, or are home schooling our kids, feeling the effects of isolating alone or possibly being with others in cramped quarters.If this isn’t bad enough on its own, we are also facing the virus of fear that comes with uncertainty. Are things going to get worse? Are our loved ones going to be OK? Is it OK to end social distancing now? How long can we keep this up? These strong emotions make it difficult to form an effective response when we face the difficult decisions and conversations in front of us.# Emotional Intelligence # Strategies # Get Disciplined # Get Motivated # Mindfulness # Self-Help
