HOW TO BUILD YOUR PSYCHOLOGICAL IMMUNITY
This new normal of distanced, isolated and cautious living is filled with unknowns, but it is also seeping with opportunity. As we all tiptoe around one another, mindful of our physical immunity, it's important that we talk about our psychological immunity.

We are all going through this together, and so instead of focusing on all that could happen, why don't we focus on what we can control - and on what we can get from this that is positive? 

Here are five simple things you can do right now to improve your psychological immunity:

Pay attention to your media input - don't get pulled into the fear-spiral of the news cycle.
Put your heart at ease- fill it with peace with prayer, time with God, or uplifting music.
Pursue thoughts that serve you- train your thoughts and use this time to mature mentally.
Prioritize self-care at home - create a routine that promotes your mental wellbeing.
Participate in a structured coaching program, like the College of Confidence, to keep your mindsethealthy and strong so you can be a pillar of hope for the long-haul of this new normal.

We can all mature in our psychological immunity. There is no better time than now to train your thoughts and master your mind. You don't have to do this on your own. Come alongside me and become a student at the College of Confidence. (www.collegeofconfidence.com)

I am so blessed that I serve my students virtually, and you can rest assured that I will continue to do so and to show up more than I ever have, in this time of global need. What a gift that we have a digital community that's permitted to meet socially online to connect and spread positivity and love.

Please enroll here (www.collegeofconfidence.com) and then check our virtual campus for the many added classes and coaching opportunities. Together we will get through this and come out stronger.
