Over the past couple of weeks I've experienced our new "normal" and I feel this is going to be the way it is for some time. I've been locked down to my home office since early March. It's been a struggle for me as I love traveling and being with my clients. Some people who've been working steadily and haven't seen a disruption in their work schedule have thought that I've been on a paid three month holiday. This couldn't have been further from my truth. You see there is a definite impact on mental health that I feel has impacted me to a certain degree. I feel that humans are inheritantly sociable and they we need the company of other people. We need the interaction and touch to stimulate our brains and activate all sorts of chemical reactions in our brain. When your unable to have these interactions there is a change in your body and mind.
I've also seen the impact of not being able to train like we used to. Master Brinker did an amazing job adapting and providing us with the platform to train during this time. I feel that if it wasn't for this virtual connection I would have retreated further into myself.
No one can predict what the future is going to hold. For now I'm going to embrace this new "normal" and keep moving forward.
Mr. Repay
