Stress, Uncertainty, and the Coronavirus Podcast

There is a reason you feel unsettled by the uncertainty around COVID19

Our brains like a predictable environment and right about now things seem very unpredictable.  As we all adapt to working from home and navigating close quarters, it is important to remember that uncertainty is inherently stressful.  We are built to view uncertainty as something we need to fear.  Understanding the reaction, and taking steps to reduce stress, does more than make you feel better.  When we shut down the stress reaction we allow our brains to think more critically and creatively — and not from a place of fear.

So, wash your hands, don’t hoard toilet paper, stay home — and give this Food Bullying Podcast episode a listen.

Michele and I have a wide-ranging conversation – and some laughs too.
