Emotional & Mental Coping During Covid-19 Delta Variant Outbreak

7/30/2021

Overcoming these waves of the pandemic due to surges of new strains of the variant has caused an emotional and mental dilemma.
Each of us reacts differently under stress. Here are some of the tips to protect your mental health during the continued pandemic.
  • Assess your mental health. Focus on your thoughts or changes with your behavioral pattern. Have a short self-evaluation of your mind and body to make sure that you are still mentally fit.
  • Get in touch with your loved ones, even just through phone calls and social media. Do not completely isolate yourself from the people you love and the outside world.
  • Try to avoid “fake news” by reading only from reputable sources of information such as newspapers and official health websites.
  • Wake up and sleep at the same time every day, eat healthy foods, exercise, don’t watch too much TV and take breaks from your cell phone.
  • Have your own financial plan. Having a budget could help you stretch your savings for the rainy days.
