Terrible news: how to protect yourself from the horrors of war?

4 pillars that are important to rely on in the current situation

1. Read only verified news
2. Make yourself a conditional “fast” from the news: set aside time when I watch or do not watch the news. We need to trust God, trust our Armed Forces
3. To have someone close to us with whom we can share. The psyche can react in different ways: both violently and without emotion – and this is normal in this abnormal situation. It is important to have someone with whom we can talk about it, or in prayer with God.
4. It is important to use your body, to find a place where I can help here and now – whether it is volunteering or immersing myself in household duties. Take care of your body: sports, dancing, walking – so that adrenaline goes out through the body.

Take care of yourself at all levels!
