She, however, shared a few pointers that could help in surviving the spiraling negative thoughts about this uncertain time:
*Avoid or limit social media intake unless it’s positive news.
*To have a sense of purpose during this covid-19 period.
*Pay attention to family and friends around us.
*Read your Bible and embracing positive energy.
