Anxiety during Lockdown. - AKA

[@malcolmanderson7923]

Hi Ayla. Great video. A lot of people, (including myself), have found it difficult at times during the lockdown. I find it helpful to exercise, (as you say), or really focus on simple things at times. (Today, during my walk, I just stopped and stared at a Blackbird on a fence. What an amazing thing!) Sometimes I will just stop and notice the beautiful colours of the leaves in Autumn. "For what is life, if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare?". Nature is amazing. Also - I literally just think about all the things I am grateful for. It's a long list and I'm sure yours is too. Lastly - do something for others. It can be something as simple as a phone call, but helping others lifts your thoughts away from yourself, and can definitely give you a lift. I do hope the Coronavirus is properly under control in the UK soon, so you and Will can start ENJOYING yourselves the way you should have been able to. Hang in there - this too shall pass. Kia Kaha (stay strong) PS. I just noticed that your initials are A K A. Is your middle name Katherine or something similar? Is "A.K.A" going to be your fashion label name? Cheers! Uncle Malc

Thank you!! There's definitely a lot of people struggling right now. Stopping and taking in surroundings or just taking a moment is super super important and definitely something I need to do more. Definitely trying to enjoy ourselves as much as possible despite the circumstances. Kia Kaha straight back at you
