Additional Information / Shotlist Doctors Without Borders knows that all around the world COVID is taking a huge toll on our mental health.

Here are a few tips that can help us all cope.

They focus on the mind, the body, and social connections.

Give your thoughts a rest. Breathe deeply into the abdomen.
Hold.
Then slowly breathe out.

Deep breathing calms the mind.

If you want to go further, try meditation, even if it’s just sitting quietly for 5 minutes.

Move your body! Dance around, ride a bike, go for a walk. When you use your body, you feel more in the moment.

Take care of your health and remember,

Everyone needs sleep, even superheroes.

Connect with other people virtually. Or meet outside where you can keep a safe distance. Talk about your day, laugh together.
Do something that brings you joy and be kind to each other
