@amandapalmer I think we are having an acknowledged mental health crisis. People are still feeling isolated and uncertain about the future. More of my (vax’d) friends got COVID over the last 6 months than the entire duration of the pandemic.

@SharonSalzberg I try to let go of "shoulds" and instead ask myself, "What do I need right now?". If I realize I'm exhausted, I take a nap. If I realize I'm hungry, I eat. If I need to get motivated, I exercise. This is the foundation of my self-care.
