Meditation Websites

• Ten Percent Happier has a “Coronavirus Sanity Guide” with many meditation recordings.
• Mindful magazine also has made many resources available for free, including its course, “Find Calm and Nourish Resilience.”
• Many folks love Calm, a meditation app with a companion website.  It’s offering a variety of meditations and exercises to help us all calm down. 

Therapy-Related Help

The app, The ACT Companion: The Happiness Trap, is available for free for the next few months. Use the code “TOGETHER” on the subscription page.

Other Options

• crowd-sourced list of activities and resources.  It’s hosted by the folks at the Death, Sex, and Money podcast.  
• complimentary, at-home fitness Includes dance stuff.

 Spotify Playlist

In hard times, I find great solace in listening to music.  On Spotify, I made a Social Distancing & Coronavirus Playlist that’s filled with lots of nostalgic hits from the 80’s.  If you’re needing a throwback fix of a Phil Collins duet, then this will be your jam.
