We are still experiencing a global pandemic event caused by COVID-19. This virus has already demonstrated its effects on our daily lives, our routines, and even our mental health. One of the best coping tools for anxiety is information discernment, gathering information, verifying the accuracy of the information, and then specific planning to manage the information. Information discernment is an effective anxiety reduction strategy. We have invited Sun Valley Research Center Director, Dr. Bernardo Ng to discuss all things COVID-19, including the adaptations and adjustments from pandemic life to post-pandemic life. What have we learned from the past year? How can we bring that knowledge to bear for a better post-pandemic life and community. |
