Episode Synopsis "How to Manage Anxiety in a Crisis, According to a Pyschologist "

In this episode, host Sarah Macken is joined by psychologist Allison Keating to discuss coping mechanisms for times of stress. From accepting that you can’t fix everything, or feel better with the wave of a wand, to learning how to sit with your emotions and breathing techniques to employ when you need to quell those anxious feelings. The most salient point that Keating touches upon is learning to readjust our expectations to this new reality. The yardstick with which we measure ourselves and our reality needs to change. It’s not about perfection - in fact, 'it is as it is' and ‘it’s good enough’ should be our new mantras for these coming weeks.
