The COVID-19 lockdown/quarantine has brought about higher than normal levels of suffering and anxiety.So it's only natural that emotions are running high. But how do we avoid swinging between the extremes of toxic positivity and toxic negativity?We discuss why so many environments, like social media, and especially corporate spaces are so 'overly' positive, to the extent that the truth is often swept under the carpet. There is a difference between optimism and toxic positivity. And then we discuss how the media - news channels and press are often negative out of all proportion.The answer is for each of us to find our own happy medium - what works for us. Allow ourselves the time and space to feel real feelings while keeping an optimistic sense of perspective.If you want to connect with us and find out more about our coaching and retreats, head over to https://www.reboot.global/
