Noticing, Naming, and Compassionately Responding to Our Pandemic-Influenced Experiences

With Katie Kearns, Assistant Vice Provost for Student Development, Indiana University Bloomington

Our current pandemic-influenced language incorporates many phrases referring to the past (“The Before Times”) and the future (“when things go back to normal”). What do we need to learn to talk about in our present experiences? We will talk about why it’s hard neurobiologically and emotionally to be in the present right now. Additionally, we will share mindfulness strategies for accepting what is right now and strategies for staying in alignment with our goals.
