The Pandemic Check-in team is joined this week by Paul Vincent, a celebrity trainer and founder of Altus Sports Institute that specializes in health and well-being. Paul shares some breathing/body techniques that he has learned through years of training with various indigenous cultures that reduce anxiety and help get you ready for a restful sleep. Paul's biggest tip to stay healthy during this time— a strong morning and bedtime routine that shifts your energy between resting and becoming active and vice versa! Also if you have kids, Paul's advice is to make stretching fun by acting like different animals and then shake it all off with a big dance party to expend some energy! As always, we want to hear from you. Was this advice helpful? What happened when you tried it out? Is there a way that you are coping that we have not discussed that you think would help others or are you struggling with something and want to discuss it with us?
