Q-Tips from Daniel Francis, life coach
These are strange times. QUARANTINEBe kind to yourself- it will make you more patient. Watch the stories you tell yourself. Sometimes we don't have all the details. Our narratives can become self-fabricated prisons Ask: Is what I'm thinking true? Is what I'm feeling based on facts? What are some other possibilities?
Take a breath- it's free. Amazingly, we do this 12-15 times a minute. This unconscious act is full of in-spire-ation. Strange times, yes, but occasions for awareness.
