Navigating the Echoes of the Pandemic: A Mother's Guide to Managing Post-COVID Stress - by Kareen Kolster




Hello, beautiful souls of our Little Zen Garden,

Dear moms, as we stand in the aftermath of a world that once was, the echoes of the pandemic still reverberate through our daily lives. The lockdown might be over, but its imprints on our souls, routines, and families persist. And yet, we rise, we adapt, and we find pockets of peace amidst the lingering chaos.

Over the last few years, as we've rebuilt our lives bit by bit, I've discovered some treasures that have brought calm to my stormy days. Let’s imagine we're sitting on a sunny porch, sipping on lemonade, sharing our little secrets to finding peace in these post-pandemic times.


1. The Meditation Moments

Amidst the noise of readjustment, Hemi-Sync has been my sanctuary. Think of it as a library of tranquility, offering sounds and meditations that anchor me, even on the busiest days.


2. Comfort Hugs from OneQuietMind

Who doesn't crave a comforting embrace? The huggable weighted pillows from OneQuietMind have been my tactile therapy on overwhelming evenings.


3. Finding Balance with Sunday Citizen

Wrapping myself in a blanket, with a good book, feels like therapy. The crystal-infused range from Sunday Citizen just magnifies those serene moments.
