The Corona Virus is challenging mankind and the structures that appear to hold this world together more than any other event since WWII. The effects are bing felt not just in terms of numbers of deaths but the possibility of a global recession that is predicted to follow. Many countries have instigated some form of lockdown with no end-date forcing us to exist in close proximity where previously we coped with rigid work routines that provide structure and boundaries.
These now have to be redefined in an environment of huge uncertainty where nothing is clear or certain, where we are bombarded with information and statistics about rising death rates the need to #stayhome. How can we make sense of this overload, establish new ways of operating both within our working days and our relationships.
