Studies by the Society for Human Resource Management show that 41% of employees feel burnt out and 45% feel emotionally drained from work. These studies show that the risk for depression among U.S. workers has risen to 102% and, more specifically, to 305% for those between the ages of 20 and 39 as a result of the pandemic.
A bad situation is an excellent time to be good and kind and gentle with ourselves and one another. During times of crisis, it is extremely important to work on our mental health.
With the chaos, uncertainty, and speed of life these days, it’s easy to feel stressed, anxious, and burnt out. The good news is there are numerous strategies you can use to help manage these feelings. When things get stressful, we tend to live more in our minds than in the present moment—but finding your “anchor” can help you get grounded again.
