Nerd Church - The Anxious Girl's Guide To Pandem-onium
(Warning: this post discusses Coronavirus/Covid-19 (but hopefully in a non-stressy way!) and Anxiety/mental health problems)
Wherever you are in the world, your life is probably being affected by the Covid-19 pandemic right now - if you're in Europe, then it definitely is.
I'm Anxious af right now - and I know other people are too.
So, I think we could all do with some practical self-care advice.
(Even if you don't have mental health problems, you still need to take care of your mental health!)

Nerd Church - The Benefits Of (Sometimes) Switching Off
(Warning: this post discusses Coronavirus/Covid-19, although it's v. brief, I promise!)
Turn off the apps and tabs you aren't using, log out of social media, and let the noise just... stop for a while.

I'm not saying 'turn off the evils of technology and become one with the universe' or whatever the latest anti-tech line is.
(Side note: these lines always seem to be spouted online. #JustSaying.)

But you don't hammer nails all day, every day, do you? (Wait... do you?)
Even the most fervent lumberjack has to put down the axe every now and then. (Axe... chainsaw... I don't know wtf they're using - ask them!)
