Absorbing ourselves in learning something new can be a wonderful way to tune down our distress and promote calm. Now is a wonderful time to dust off a book you've meant to read, or begin on a craft or home project you've always had in mind but never found time for. Or try listening to a recorded class or lecture, such as those available now for free from the New York Historical Society. Whatever you choose to learn, it is sure to stretch your mind!
