Dr. Mary Alvord: ...the importance of pacing yourself during the pandemic

Nobody is immune to the stress that has come with the COVID-19 pandemic and the restrictions it's placed on our lives. As far as children are concerned, coronavirus may be less harmful to their bodies than it is to those of older people. But, it may be more difficult for kids to deal with emotionally than it is for other age groups.

On this episode, we'll take a look at the mental health impact of the pandemic on children and teenagers with our guest, Dr. Mary Alvord, who's a children's psychologist in Maryland and co-author of Resilience Builder Program for Children and Adolescents, which focuses on enhancing the ability to adapt well to life and its challenges.
