Try the calm app. Micro breaks also help, they’re when you take 30-60 seconds to consciously slowly breathe in/out every hour or two (or however often you need) to recenter yourself.

You are not alone. This has been an incredibly challenging time as we navigate watching history repeat itself, as non of this is a new playbook. It’s just playing out in our lifetime. We have to do our best being present in the moment, focus on our self care in order to our mental health. Love and appreciate our family and friends because “we all we got”. I would offer 15 minute mediation during your day. Box breathing. Counting your fingers by touch and periodic walks to recenter.

I am glad you posted this because I have been feeling the same way. The news is so depressing every day and there is just so much going on that its stressing me out. I have defintiely been trying to prioritize self-care during this time but you are right, it has been especially hard to stay motivated at work.

Lot of fear in the market right now (understandably so). The situation in Ukraine is awful and the potential consequences are scary to think about.

There are some who want to sell in fear of their investments falling further. Do not do this. Hold and continue to buy more. Continue your 401k contributions, and add whatever you can afford after every paycheck into your brokerage. Those who sold the covid crash were often late buying back in.

This is the dip you're worried about.

After 2 weeks they said Role no longer available. It was L5 supply chain role. This happened in April. Can I apply again in Amazon? I joined a company 3 months ago, does it look bad in CV to leave again in 3 months? I hv a 6 month gap in career in 2019 due to lay off (covid). total exp 9 yrs. SCM exp 6 yrs.
