A little self-care goes a long way. Today I adorned my office desk with beautiful flowers. How do you show yourself you care?

Even though I normally wear glasses for work, these blue blocking glasses are a new part of my online gear. It's debatable whether or not these babies work according to some studies, but I give them 2 thumbs up! What's your new normal working from home?

Stop feeling guilty for not "taking advantage" of this time in isolation by not re-organizing your closets, taking on a new language or learning a musical instrument. Some of us are lucky if we get out of our pjs.

The impact of this pandemic on the mental health of health care workers, patients, and the families of both may not be the focus of our concerns in the present moment, but it should be.

Encourage your loved ones and friends to talk it out and if need be, to get professional help. Now is the time to remind them that they are not alone.

While the toll on our health care system and economy are widely discussed, we have been far too quiet about another, more insidious, problem, writes Shahdabul Faraz

One of the hardest things to do as we socially isolate and many of us work from home, is getting enough sleep. Usually, this can be a result of poor sleep hygiene such as not following a sleep and wake-up schedule, using electronic devises before bed, or not avoiding stimulants before sleep.

But despite our greatest efforts, our mind sometimes refuses to "shut off" and keeps us from getting the hours of sleep we so desperately need.

This technique is one thing that can help. Don't believe me? Give it an honest try. If it doesn't work, I have more skills up my sleeve.

Contact me today to see how I can help you with sleep or anything else that may be keeping you up past your bedtime.
