The answer is – not in 2020, haha. Maybe 2021 will be a much better year. Maybe 2020 lessons and movements will make the world a much better place in 2021, 2022…My point here is that changing your perspective to a positive one may be all you need to be in a better mood. Things, the world, will get better. Just remember the old psychology term – decatastrophizing.
In cognitive therapy, decatastrophizing or decatastrophization is a cognitive restructuring technique to treat cognitive distortions, such as magnification and catastrophizing, commonly seen in psychological disorders like anxiety and psychosis. Wikipedia.
In other words, 2020 may seem like a catastrophe, but things (the world) will get better, eventually. By decatastrophizing all that’s happening in our current world, we help ourselves get through each day. Also, some deep breathing, mindfulness, or yoga might help take the edge off. Communing with nature is a great diversion, so I plan to ride my mountain bike later close to sunset. Good luck with your own diversion.
