While the fear of loss of control and uncertainty is understandable during the COVID-19 pandemic, excessive worry and can cause anxiety and other problems. Why not shift all the energy we spend worrying, in to something we control: self-care And focussing on sleep is of course a key to genuine self-care, because we know the benefits of good sleep for our immune system.
