Schedules and routines are paramount to proper mental wellbeing. And thanks to COVID-19, our schedules and routines just got royally wrecked.
Cancellations, closures, and constraints abound – and while we all know the preventive importance of this isolation period, it in no way lessens the stress and anxiety caused by our disrupted realities.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has created an accompanying mental-health crisis,” says Bill Belanger, Co-Founder and CEO of Healbright. “The resources we’re providing in partnership with Sonic Boom are designed to help individuals manage their stress and build resilience from home. By making these resources widely available, we hope to play our part in lessening the widespread hardship from this outbreak.”
Just as important as mental wellbeing at a time like this? You guessed it – exercise and proper nutrition. “We’ve seen people stocking up on canned goods and other processed foods,” says Van Noy, “and as important as it is to be prepared, nothing boosts your immune system better than fresh veggies and exercise. Oh, and bonus – both help boost your mental wellbeing too.”
