As the coronavirus travels to every corner of the globe and forces millions of us to stay home, researchers are scrambling to launch studies in order to assess the psychological impacts of this historic moment in time.

While it’s still too soon to see published results of these studies, if I asked you to take a wild guess about how people are doing while sheltering in place, you might say… not great?

You’d be partially correct, based on conclusions released by a recent report that speculates how happy (or unhappy) people are during the lockdown currently mandated by most states in the U.S.

The Most Important Advice for Parents to Encourage Math in Children Amid Lockdown
Not every child is born with skills to solve math equations and divide and multiply swiftly. Most of them struggle with calculations, algebra, and graphs. And the approach most parents take in pushing them toward the ability is through destructive and degrading feedback. Yes, math is an essential part of the world, and without this basic skill, no person can succeed in life. But there are better ways of infusing this mindset in children than by force.

How to Keep Your Kids Entertained During School Closures
This year has started with an unexpected twist. Typically for this time of year, the weather is getting warmer and the nights are lasting longer, but our doors and plans are remaining firmly shut and sealed. With the outbreak of Covid-19, the government has enforced social isolation to minimise the risk of spreading the virus. Some of us are working from home, schools have been shut, and we only leave the house for exercise or to shop for necessities. This is leading to a lot of free time for some of us!

Coping with lockdown and bipolar disorder
Governments around the world have instituted social distancing and social isolation measures to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus. This has led many people to experience changes in their normal daily routines of work, study and other lifestyle activities.  Spending more time at home can generate many challenges -  increased tension with housemates, loneliness, less distraction and maybe more rumination -  but one challenge is particularly relevant to people with bipolar disorders.   Here are some expert tips from the International Society for Bipolar Disorders Chronobiology Task Force.

To Pay or Not to Pay for Yoga During the Coronavirus Shutdown
You roll out your yoga mat in your living room, open your laptop, and Zoom into a yoga class with 20 unfamiliar faces sitting in Easy Pose. At the start of the session, the teacher asks the students in the Zoom room to share their intentions and hopes for the future, which are uncertain for many. At the end of class, the teacher humbly asks for donations via Venmo. You shrink inside, knowing your level of gratitude for the day’s practice won’t quite match your monetary offering.

5 Calming Activities to Help Kids Relieve Stress During COVID-19 Lockdown
Finding a sense of calm is likely difficult for kids right now, no matter their age. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our world as we know it has halted.

How to ACE Your Days during Social Distancing
Many of us have been practice social distancing for well over a month at this point. We are spending long days in our homes and might be stuck in a rut by this point. The same routines could be getting boring, or we might be feeling increasingly burned out or even a little depressed. Whatever unique stressors we each face, there is a simple tool that can help us get more out of our days. The acronym is A.C.E., and each letter stands for Achievement, Closeness, and Enjoyment. These are three primary needs we each have, and they are useful to keep in mind when planning activities and for reflection at the end of each day or week. A simple goal would be to have at least one activity for each letter completed each day.

When I Feel Awkward Wearing a Mask During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Today I went to the store for the first time in a few weeks. I sat in my car for a while as I tried to find enough confidence to put on my face mask and walk in. I watched the shoppers entering and exiting the store. Once I saw others go in with their mask on, I felt a little bit better. I am protecting others by wearing one, so why does it feel so uncomfortable?

How I’m managing my anxiety and depression during lockdown
It's hard to stay focused on anything that isn't your own anxiety at a time like this. Every attempt to disengage or take a break from the all-consuming panic and anxiety of not knowing feels like a leap, but one that drops me even further. Some days are manageable. I fill my day by watching a film I've always wanted to watch, or reading a new book, or even just listening to music. Those are okay days – it's safe to say a good day isn't really a possibility at the moment. Living with depression and anxiety will, on the best of days, leave me with pains in my chest as I worry about what will happen if I go outside. So now? It feels like a minefield.

Like many other people, since COVID-19 began, you might have suddenly found yourself with infinitely more time on your hands than you ever had before.1 The factors leading to this situation are myriad: You may have been unexpectedly let go and spend the 8 to 12 hours a day you would have kept yourself distracted from being upset by working now thinking about the time you were unexpectedly let go. Also, you get to try to pay your bills without a stable source of income. Maybe, rather, you have a job you can luckily do from home and have actually been relieved not to commute to work each day. But you are reconsidering that position after your partner and kids have slowly driven you mad by Day 32 of being with them all... the... time.

Why Liberals Should Oppose the Lockdown
The problem with authoritarian governments, even ones you like, is that they don’t restrict their exercise of power to ends of which you approve. A government that forces you to stay inside your home, deprives you of your living, and forbids you to visit your loved ones – all in the name of “saving lives” – can make use of the same rationale to restrict a woman’s right to choose.
