The Power of the Unplug

“We live in a world of virtual distraction, constantly surrounded by ‘how to videos,’ current events, politics, and impressive TikTok dances. Social media can be wonderful for our curious minds, hungry for information, justice, inspiration, understanding, connection and laughter. It can serve as an outlet to keep our wandering imaginations satiated from a safe distance avoiding looking within and acknowledging that which we’re not ready to face.”

Reflections

Sarah reflects from the start of COVID to now; the grief, the unknowns, the loneliness, the inequalities and hardships. Sarah reminds us that we're all human and we've all been living through COVID and surrounding events, just in our own ways.

Is This Intended for Me?

“…Sometimes what activates us is not actually about that person, and what they did or did not clean up. Especially during this intense period of time, many of us are collectively carrying so much compounded tension, grief, and fear in our bodies that it takes a drop of a hat for the nervous system to become activated and seek immediate release.”
