Coronavirus anxiety is real. I am not an anxious person at all. However, I must admit this is the first time I’m my lifetime that I’ve been a worried so much about the fate of our nation as a hold. Not only are we dealing with a virus that our government does not know how to contain, we have a real ignorant person in the White House.

While you are on the walk or run, pop in your AirPods and turn on some Yolanda Adams or Smokie Norful! Listening to worship music is a major way I lift my spirits in times of uncertainty. And I’m ALWAYS sure to sing along as loudly and proudly as possible. Praising God is always a good thing.

Calming sensory experiences can help you change your state of mind. Candles, incense, and various essential oils have proven to minimize stress by calming your overall mood. I encourage you all to experience the rewarding sensations of aromatherapy.
Please stay safe and as healthy as possible Freehive! This virus is very, very contagious and deadly.

Love this list!!
Great list! I’m doing all but 2 of them as well. Definitely will do the gratitude list. I have so much to be grateful for.
Wow! This is an amazing dress. You are looking so beautiful. Thanks for sharing such a unique collection of outfits with cool accessories. You look so beautiful and I would love to wear such dresses with Conch piercing jewelry. Because accessories give you a different style statement. Well, if I’d be asked to add accessories to my style, I would prefer piercing jewelry in the first place. in these days Conch Piercing is a huge trend. Thanks for the post.
Gratitude list and walks are super important to me. Definitely a great read, Nikki. Plus, you look amazing!
