Holding The Tension and When is This S... Going To End
Episode description
The effects and implications of lockdown are widespread, and are taking a serious toll on not just the economy, but our mental health. Human beings are social animals, and to be quarantined away from each other is not a natural state to find ourselves in.
This week, Rob candidly examines the effects of the lockdown on his own wellbeing, and discusses how we can use our strength of will to see ourselves safely through to the other side.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The principles that guide us into being the best that we can be, are transcendent of any niche or interest. They are the founding values of humanity itself.
- The denial of physical contact, and the proximity of those we love the most, is an act of rebellion against our very physiology. The effects of lockdown are far more damaging to our psyche than we may realise.
- There has been a large chasm in the understanding of how this will affect those who are more vulnerable than others. This has led to anger and frustration in the lack of leadership on show.
- Holding the tension allows us to fully consider how we deal with situations in life. It is far too easy to give up. Pulling back gives us the perspective need in order to deal with things.
