Daily Coronavirus Check-in: Stress-free Friday with Luke McLeod

Over the past couple of months on this daily Corona pod, I’ve spoken about feeling like I’m having panic attacks that I’ve never experienced before, and generally heightened levels of stress and anxiety. I know it’s something a lot of working parents have been feeling and are still feeling to varying degrees. So I’m officially declaring today ‘stress-free Friday’. Yup, today, you are not allowed to stress. Stress be gone. You have my permission to tell stress to eff right off. No space for you in our lives today. To help you do that, I put in a call to meditation and mindfulness teacher Luke Mcleod and asked him to share some calming practices and some quick things to do to help recognise that you’re starting to feel stress and how to bring those stress levels down. If you feel like your muscles are tight, your breathing is shallow and your forehead is scrunched up, then pop yourself down somewhere quiet and comfortable, and take these next few minutes for yourself.
