Navigating Mental Health Amidst Election Stress: Practical Tools and Personal Insights
Podcast: Talkin‘ Politics & Religion Without Killin‘ Each OtherPublished On: Tue Sep 24 2024
Description: In this episode, we delve into the topic of mental health, especially during this stressful election season. This is a departure from our usual conversations on politics and religion to emphasize the importance of stepping back from political chaos for mental well-being. One of the tools that are discussed include how meditation has been a transformative practice for many people, alongside other valuable “arrows for our quiver” like writing / prayer, physical exercise, nourishing the mind with great literature (fiction and non-fiction), fostering human connections, getting a healthy amount of rest and establishing helpful boundaries and rules of engagement.
