Coping with a Covid Christmas - a podcast by Lucy Clyde + Becky Howard

'A Christmas like no other' doesn't even begin to cover what we're all dealing with right now. With the festive season upon us, it's hard to feel positive when so many of us can't see our families, are battered by the depressing news landscape, or are just burned out from nearly a year of dealing with toxic pandemic stress.

So how can we cope at this particularly tricky time of year and look after our mental health? Despite the fact we've been living with Covid since March, everything feels a bit sharper and more painful right now. In this special seasonal episode, we chat through how we can stop the slide into despair during this time, and find joy in some small rays of sunlight (the vaccine! No catering stress or family rows!).

We also look back at 2020, what, if anything we've learned about ourselves and what we can take into the New Year. Our collective mental health has been one of the focuses of this difficult year - let's keep the conversation going to help each other. 👊
