During all this craziness, your mental health really matters. Small rituals of normality can really help. Every three weeks I catch up with a good friend for coffee. We sit outside, wrapped up, and just chat about life and suchlike. At first I felt guilty for taking a couple...
...of hours off work, but I realised that I’m working lots anyway, and I’m taking far less time off than normal. Plus, looking after ourselves makes us better at our work, our relationships, our friendships... and our own sanity. Watching out for yourself isn’t being...
...selfish, it’s actually being selfless, because it’s the first step to us looking after each other. Have that cuppa. Make that call. Do that zoom. Look after you. And this afternoon, for an hour or two, I’ll be drinking coffee with my mate.
