Living Between Two Worlds: Coping Strategies for Our New Reality

As our nation opens up back to its previous normal, we can now eat outside some places, even inside. Some houses of worship are opening. Haircutting, tattooing, massaging are now opening. Our new planet is opening before our eyes.
Ever feel like you're living on two different planets these days? In this episode of 'Brandler Bits', therapist Jeffrey Brandler dives into the stark contrast between our old lives and the new reality we've all had to adapt to. He starts by painting a picture of how life used to be, before everything got turned upside down by the pandemic. Then, he doesn't just leave you hanging—Jeffrey offers five practical strategies to help you cope with these changes.
Expect a mix of good days and bad days, focus on what you can control, and pay attention to your own 'risk barometer'. He also talks about assessing who your 'safe people' are to gradually expand your social circles, and reminds us to stick to the safety precautions we've been using. Jeffrey's advice is all about listening to your heart and gut when deciding what's too risky for you personally.
By the end of the episode, you'll feel more equipped to handle this new world, knowing that change is inevitable but manageable. If you're looking for some solid advice on navigating these challenging times, this episode is definitely worth a listen.
