Good morning! π§ββοΈπππ€
A political mess is before us. It can be very stressful.
My advice is to focus on what's good and beautiful.
This means moving your attention away from the stress to things you love to do. ( home, family, nature, sports, music, etc)
Like observing each petal on a flower, it's shape, color and connections to the plant, earth, sun, universe
Look with fresh eyes, be curious and grateful for (example) the earth and this precious biosphere which sustains us.

^^^ that is a way to find calm &peace in the midst of a storm.
mindfulness practice is NOT about ignoring issues.
I've navigated many crises in the past year. (Except for the really bad freak out shit that happened), I have found solutions through MFP.
The more you practice, the better you get at being non judgemental. This is key to emotional regulation.
This enables you to see the issue almost as a third person << this is where solutions are.
