• Maintain friendships.
• Look up Radio Taiso: Keep Moving.
• Try Morita’s four stages in the next few weeks:

  • Start with activities like wood cutting, painting or anything of your interest that produces new set of emotions, joy and engagement. 
  • Re-enter the world with a newfound sense of calm and purpose.
