What can parents and children do to survive self-isolation, and each other?

Thoughts from Daleen Lamprecht (Biokineticist)

COVID-19 is causing widespread disruption to daily life for people across the world. While supporting social distancing recommendations and movement restrictions to keep our communities safe from the virus, we also need to be mindful of how disruption can affect our mental health, fitness and occupational health.

Wellness is about being able to live a life where you want to take responsibility and where you have control over the choices you make. Wellness will give you the opportunity to not merely survive every day but to thrive despite your circumstances.

It would be wrong to say there is good news coming out of COVID-19, but there are causes for optimism; reasons to think there may be ways to contain and defeat the virus. And lessons to learn for the future.
