Yesterday, I did a Hypno Hangout session “Using Hypnosis To Feel The Hugs From Our Loved Ones While Quarantined.” To prepare, I did some research on just how important “touch” is to human beings. And you know what? It’s pretty important! One of the articles I read was called “Why Physical Touch Matters for Your Well Being,” written by Jonathan Jones in November 2018.

I was thinking about a childhood memory today, that of a sign posted in my Grandma Kanaan's kitchen. It read:

God grant me the serenity o accept the things I cannot change;

Courage to change the things I can;

and the wisdom to know the difference.

30 more days of social distancing...ugh!

We are watching history unfold in front of our eyes. Never in our lifetimes have we seen such an unprecented event such as COVID-19. As I watch my friends post the good, the bad, and the ugly on Facebook, I see a larger trend emerging...GRIEF. Everyone is morning the loss of "the way things were."
