Finally, I can get back into the swing of things…Now that the world is gradually opening back up… I wonder if anyone else is experiencing PTSD from COVID-19. Since last year health has been the major factor and still is. So many things have changed about healthy living from eating healthier foods, exercising regularly to wearing a mask and restricted to socializing six feet apart from each other to stay safe.

Since the distributions of the various vaccines has brought a relief to the world. However, there might be a laps in how we stay healthy. As we journey back to being “ Normal” whatever that looks like for you. I realize that many people are not viewing COVID-19 as much of a sensitive issue and no longer looking for another pandemic threat to our lives being snatched away like a cold winter night. I just want you to really handle your life with care and still take precautionary measures because I believe that we are not fully out the woods yet and we should still maintain a healthy strategy as we prepare to enter a summer without restrictions.
