Why listen to this podcast: • Mental health and wellness is not a new challenge for the technology industry, and it is more openly discussed today that is has been previously • The COVID-19 pandemic has put many people into a collective state of shock. • Acknowledging the emotional reactions and their impact is an important part of being able to cope with what is happening. It's really important to give them time and know that they will pass, come back again and pass, and that’s OK. • It’s important to identify what you can control and acknowledge what you cannot control, accept that the feelings of being out of control are real and they are stressful, and that you always have control over how we respond to a situation, even if you can’t control the circumstances • Empathic responding, finding ways to care for and help others, is one of the best ways to respond to a crisis and contributes to our own wellbeing More on this: Quick scan our curated show notes on InfoQ https://bit.ly/2Ri0283 You can also subscribe to the InfoQ newsletter to receive weekly updates on the hottest topics from professional software development. bit.ly/24x3IVq Subscribe: www.youtube.com/infoq Like InfoQ on Facebook: bit.ly/2jmlyG8 Follow on Twitter: twitter.com/InfoQ Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/infoq Check the landing page on InfoQ: https://bit.ly/2Ri0283
