More DescriptionMaking the Most of Your Pandemic Emotions, written by a developmental psychologist and Board-certified counselor, is a self-help book offering insights and strategies for dealing with the common emotions experienced by most people, in any culture, during the Covid-19 pandemic.Topics range from "25+ ways to treat your own depression," to managing "grief and loss." "Panic attacks" offers specific ways to overcome these frightening and debilitating episodes. "Pain" attends to both soul wounds and moral injury, such as what medical frontline workers experience when they cannot save everyone. In addition to ways to deal with the difficult and painful emotions, the author encourages readers to make the most of their positive emotions, such as love and power. These may "get lost in the shuffle" of troublesome and hurtful emotions, but those who are suffering can mobilize them to be overcomers instead of victims. Targeted exercises include meditations on ancient literature, such as the Psalms and promises for strength and peace.
