The COVID-19 Challenge

April 5, 2020 By cathy zimmerman

In the midst of this COVID-19 crisis there is so much uncer­tainty, so much we do not know.  What comes with this uncer­tainty is a funda­mental question of our own survival, whether it be concerning our health, our family’s health, our liveli­hood and even our life alto­gether. How will we survive? We are faced with inse­cu­rity which can give rise to anxiety, fear and even panic. We are feeling the fragility of the human condition. And we are  sharing this inse­cu­rity with all of human kind across the planet. Simply put, we have never expe­ri­enced a crisis of such magnitude known to anyone who is alive today.
The question is, how can we navigate this challenge so that we are not making matters worse? What we don’t want to do is contribute to further panic and aggres­sion for ourselves as well as the planet. How can we work with our state of mind which can either fuel our anxiety and create further unnec­es­sary suffering or come into a place of strength and calm; expanding a place of confi­dence in our capacity to be with whatever shows up- no matter what!
Something is being asked of us of a higher order now. It is not about asking why this happening to us- it is more about why this is happening FOR us. In what ways can we actually use this challenge to cultivate our heart, our courage and our confi­dence? The Chinese symbol for “crisis” is trans­lated as “oppor­tu­nity”. I choose to view it as such.
The good news: We have been given the inherent qualities which can help us to navigate through these troubling times. It is our birthright. We all possess the confi­dence that is needed at this time. We all have what we need! We can get through this. This is a time for positive transformation.
When you read my website, you will see that this is how I have been working ther­a­peu­ti­cally all along. If you would like to join me in working in this way, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I welcome working with you in trans­forming these chal­lenging times into times of empowerment.
