We have been living through the COVID-19 pandemic for well over a year now. Everyone has had different experiences through this pandemic dependent upon your positionality and identities. As the country eases restrictions and tries to return to pre-pandemic life, how do you feel about engaging with people again? A lot of us are experiencing anxiety about a 2019 type of life. Today, Dr. Dom and Terri share their feelings and offer us tips on managing post-pandemic anxiety.




Quote of the Day:


“Worrying is carrying tomorrow’s load with today’s strength—carrying two days at once. It is moving into tomorrow ahead of time. Worrying doesn’t empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.”


– Corrie Ten Boom

  1. Acknowledge your feelings.
