[0:01][Music] foreign [Music] pandemic burnout is a state of emotional and physical

[0:31]exhaustion caused by prolonged stress and isolation as a result of the

[0:37]covet 19 virus here are three ways that you can help prevent

[0:43]pandemic burnout in your kids first step is to be patient and

[0:47]understanding children's lives have completely changed since 2020 many transitioned to remote

[0:55]learning and were completely cut off from their friends and activities that

[0:59]they used to enjoy worries about getting sick and people dying also

[1:04]contribute to feeling unsafe and anxious about the future for adults we

[1:08]can access the outside world anytime we wish through our cell phones

[1:13]social media or even online events young children don't have the same

[1:18]luxury to interact with others as they wish unless parents make arrangements

[1:23]and integrate socialization in other ways as a parent you may have

[1:27]become frustrated when you see your child feeling unmotivated or hopeless as

[1:32]they try to figure out virtual learning methods or even complain about

[1:36]feeling tired all the time but it's really important to normalize these

[1:42]feelings when the world is in a state of dysfunction when your

[1:45]child feels like they've hit it dead and encouraged them to take

[1:48]a break and come back to their tasks when they feel that

[1:54]they have more energy and they're able to sit down and focus

[1:58]other physical symptoms of pandemic burnout in your child could be physical

[2:03]symptoms such as headaches stomachaches dizziness or prolonged fatigue the second way

[2:12]that you can help your child prevent pandemic burnout is to teach

[2:15]them to manage their anxiety when going through any difficult transition in

[2:20]life i highly recommend utilizing illustrated books especially for elementary age children

[2:26]as a means to normalize and create open dialogue regarding a subject

[2:31]matter and there are a plethora of illustrated books out there on

[2:36]different ways to cope with the pandemic and manage stress in general

[2:40]you can also help your older children understand that you know we

[2:45]may not be in control of this pandemic but we can control

[2:49]our thoughts and we can either feed their that anxiety and make

[2:52]it even bigger or we can channel that energy into focusing on

[2:57]what we can control instead encourage them to use this time wisely

[3:01]by spending more quality time with family learning new things and doing

[3:06]extra acts of worship for the sake of allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

[3:12]third teach your children how to have a growth mindset those who

[3:16]possess a growth mindset embrace challenges and obstacles knowing that they can

[3:22]grow in difficulty through hard work and feedback from others on the

[3:29]other hand there are those with fixed mindsets who believe they're either

[3:31]good or bad at something based on their inherent nature and nothing

[3:36]is going to change that the problem is having a fixed mindset

[3:41]really prevents children from becoming resilient and being able to adapt to

[3:46]difficult situations such as the pandemic so utilize this opportunity to discuss

[3:52]challenges face violence chosen prophets imams righteous companions and how they were

[3:59]able to overcome obstacles it's also useful to discuss with your child

[4:03]ways in your own life that you were able to address challenges

[4:07]and adapt to difficult situations help your child to understand that if

[4:13]they can get through this pandemic they can get through anything inshallah

[4:17]tell them that you're proud of them for doing something that no

[4:21]kid in history has ever had to do before assalamu alaikum is
