Find Your Reason to Stay Socially Distant Amid "Caution Fatigue"

Find Your Reason to Stay Socially Distant Amid "Caution Fatigue"

Maybe you’re tired of wearing a mask or just refusing to put one on.

Or you don’t want to offend your friends by asking them to sit 6 feet away when you social distance.

Some are calling this quarantine fatigue or caution fatigue.

Many people are tired of the precautions we need to take to avoid Covid-19.

A recent article in Fast Company magazine says - a sense of helplessness, an ongoing dread, a desire to simply give up—is not uncommon.”

But cases of Covid-19 are on the rise and so are deaths from the virus.

So if you want to stay healthy - being cautious is still required.

Ojibwe artist and elder Robert Desjarlait has survived a heart attack and two bouts with cancer. Chemo made him sick, cold, bald and tired. But he says, it was worth it.

DESJARLAIT: I felt I was being given a second change at life you know. The chemo was part of the price I had to pay for it. To me it has been worth it because it brought me back to my art. (:15)

He’s currently preparing an art show at AICHO gallery in Duluth featuring 29 of his paintings.

When Ojibwe elder Sharon Day decided to finally - really - quit smoking, she says she had to find a good reason.

DAY: In 2000 the health department gave me a grant to work with youth to do smoking prevention so the day I signed the contract was the day I quit smoking because how could I work with kids ands tell them not to smoke if I was still smoking. [laughter]

So now as caution fatigue sets in - it might be the time to ask - What’s your reason to stay healthy?
