The pandemic is having a huge toll on all of us - you might find you're stuck in a state of feeling 'meh', uninspired and stagnant.

We don't have the ability to influence the Covid situation - circumstances are beyond our control, which is a recipe for this state of being 'meh'.

However, research shows that "acceptance coping" results in significantly less distress during such times.

Importantly, acceptance isn't a passive process. It's not giving up. Rather, it's reminding ourselves "this is how things are right now". Psychologists call this helpful, active acceptance, as opposed to resigning acceptance.

Active acceptance is a key quality in mindfulness. Click Read More to find out more, I am a local registered mindfulness teacher.

Hi everyone,
I'm Brigitte, community activator for the Auckland Red Cross. Last week was Good and Ready Week and New Zealand Red Cross is encouraging everyone to get involved and be prepared in case a disaster strikes 💪

Download the FREE New Zealand Red Cross Hazard app to help you and your family prepare for and help you get through emergencies in New Zealand.

Preloaded content provides instant access to all preparedness information, even without cell phone reception or an internet connection

Being prepared for a disaster reduces our vulnerability and helps save lives. Get to know your neighbours and your community. Remember your neighbour could be your first responder in an emergency.
