4 Coping Skills for This Trying Time Easy tips to help keep sane during the coronavirus pandemic. Posted Mar 17, 2020 Rose Sword... Isolation can renew connections. Based on what’s happening in other countries, right now we’re only seeing the tip of the iceberg of the effects that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our nation. We’ve searched our collective memories as well as researched U.S. history, and the time we find ourselves in is truly unique. Yes, we united during World War II and eventually emerged as a compassionate world leader. And after 9-11, we once again pulled together and adapted our ways of life to a strange world filled with terrorism. Yet those experiences were, for good or bad, us against them; the them being other human beings with a different world view than ours. But now, our nation of 330 million citizens and the world is fighting a viral enemy that can only survive and do damage inside a host body. Inside of each of us me, you, everyone. As counties, states, and businesses make painful but necessary decisions to close schools and businesses, or work from home when feasible, and we are told to social distance or self-isolate for our own good as well as the good of others, how can we keep from going stir-crazy for weeks, and possibly months, at a time? And if you’re at a higher risk for serious illness from coronavirus because of your senior age status or a long-term health problem, it’s extra important for you to take action to reduce your risk of getting sick with the disease. Four Coping Skills Of the myriad of coping skills we reviewed for this article, these four are the simplest and perhaps most important for each of us to practice to stay as healthy as possible during this unprecedented time of social distancing: 1. Sleeping. For adults, the importance of getting seven to eight hours of sleep is essential for good health and well being throughout life. Getting enough sleep helps protect our mental and physical health as well as quality of life and safety. While we sleep, our body is working to support healthy brain function and maintain our physical health. For children and teens, sleep also helps support growth and development. Our immune system relies on sleep to stay healthy. It defends our body against foreign or harmful substances and can help us fight infections. When we don’t get enough sleep, we may have trouble making decisions, solving problems, controlling emotions and behavior, and coping with change. Here are the National Institute of Health recommended amounts of sleep per age group: Infants aged 4-12 months: 12-16 hours a day (including naps) Children aged 1-2 years: 11-14 hours a day (including naps) Children aged 3-5 years: 10-13 hours a day (including naps) Children aged 6-12 years: 9-12 hours a day Teens 13-18 years: 8-10 hours a day Adults aged 18 or older: 7-8 hours a day 2. Relaxing. As our stress level increasesand there’s every reason to believe it willit’s more important than ever to take time throughout the day to take a break, rest, and when necessary, calm ourselves. If we’re anxious, an easy exercise is taking a moment to slow down our breathing. One way to do this is to inhale slowly to a count of four, hold it for a moment, and then exhale slowly to a count of four. If we do this a few times, we’ll notice our heart rate will slow down too. We can practice this at home orwhen it is possible to be outdoors againalso practice this when at a stoplight, in line at the store; you get the idea. Another way to relax is by watching short, mood-lifting videos (i.e., nature), or listening to enjoyable sounds (i.e., waves, rain, birdsong) or music. Remember, the second enemy to cope with in addition to the coronavirus is our anxiety and fears about the new pandemic. Stay calm, win the war! Here are a few calming videos: The Great Bell Chant Forest Bird Songs Rain and Ocean Sounds The River of Time 3. Moving your body. During isolation, it’s easy to overlook the fact that we probably aren’t as active as we were just the other day. Getting up and walking around, stretching, and continuing our regular exercise regimes as best we can is of greater value now than ever before. It is vital to have preset exercise times at home for you and all family members and to do them as if you were in a gym class. If possible, when not quarantined, taking a walk or jog in nature is greatly beneficial for our physical and mental well being. But as municipal facilities, gyms, and other places temporarily close, it’s up to each of us to keep our bodies in shape in the coming weeks and months so we’re better prepared to cope with whatever lies ahead. 4. Connecting socially. This strange time of social distancing presents us with a unique opportunity that, although we’ve had it forever, we may have taken for granted: connecting with each other. It’s of paramount importance that we communicate with family members, friends, workmates and especially people we know that are at a higher risk of contracting the coronavirus. For those we’re close to, it's a chance to convey not only concern but also the love and gratitude we may express only on special occasions. This is no time to hold back! When appropriate, end conversations or text messages with I love you, bring up a fond memory you share with that person, or make plans to do something together when the threat is over. Then make sure you follow through. Isolation can cause anxiety and depression and add to the stress we’re already experiencing. Sharing the positive ways we feel about others helps tremendously. And perhaps more importantly, helping alleviate someone else’s anxiety, depression, and stress is a beautiful, selfless act. Also send notes to all of your online contacts about your health status, as well as updating them on your projects of mutual interest, and asking what they are doing to enjoy their enforced solitude. Keep calm, stay positive. Rather than being citizens of individual nations, the coronavirus presents us with the chance to unite in a way we haven’t really experienced: as global citizens. Unlike science fiction in days of yore, it isn’t Earth being invaded by beings from another world that can or will bring us together. It’s a microscopic, devastating virus, passed from person to person, that promises to bring out the bestor worstin each of us. So while we practice the tips above and hold on to the thought that this is temporary, let’s also own that the only person we can control is ourselves. Let’s be conscious that the way we act and react has, for good or ill, ripple effects. During this unprecedented time of stress and illness, let’s choose kindness, empathy, and compassion. Let’s choose wisely, and spread our positive ripple effect widely.

Retirement, Real Estate & COVID-19: Will Downsizing-To-The-City Reverse Course? Joseph CoughlinApr 16, 2020, Mature couple relaxing after moving into their new ...house Downsizing to the city has been the dream of many empty-nesters and retirees. That was 'BC,' before ... [+] Getty Anna’s bright blue eyes light up as she explains her reasons for moving to the city in retirement. A little more than a year ago she sold her four-bedroom suburban home and moved into a two-bedroom apartment downtown. When asked why she downsized to less than half of the space she enjoyed for decades, the excited 70-year-old retiree exclaimed, Everything is right there. Anything I wantfood, fun, it’s all right outside my door! Boomers across North America have begun eschewing larger living spaces in favor of smaller, big-city digsand not just for the improved access to restaurants and excitement, but as Jila, a 68-year old retired piano teacher, noted when moving from the outskirts to downtown Toronto, priorities change such as having ready access healthcare. Add in the convenience of not having to drive much (or at all) and the ease of maintaining a smaller space (often without a yard), and, for many new suburban and rural retirees, the decision to downsize to the city has been a no-brainer. In fact, AARP reports that data from TenantCloud, a residential property management software service, show that nearly one-third of all urban applications are for renters over age 60. But that was B.C.: before COVID-19. Events as significant as COVID-19 do not simply affect us in the moment then disappear. They reframe future values, priorities, perceptions of risk, choices, and, ultimately, behaviors. (Think, for instance, about how often people reference the ‘great recession,’ now over ten years distant, when discussing nearly any economic issue today.) Any number of social trends that were pointing in one direction at the start of 2020 may reverse course by the end of the crisis. Will the urban retirement wave be one of them? It’s still too early to look for meaning in real-estate numbers, but it’s not too soon to start thinking about shifts in imagery. Consider the associations now developing around the very ideas of urban space and distance. While COVID-19 is affecting everyone, older adults, especially those with underlying conditions, appear to be particularly vulnerable to its worst effects. Meanwhile, cities, as a result of their high population inflows, outflows, and density, are being hit hardest. (For now, anywayrural regions remain at real risk.) Moreover, space to provide safe physical distance is at a premium in cities. Then there are the images of exodus. Droves of wealthier New Yorkersthose most likely to occupy the city’s most spacious and comfortable homeshave been seen fleeing to their summer houses: from the outer reaches of Long Island to the Green Mountains of Vermont, the lakes of upstate New York down to the Jersey shore. So many people have been escaping the nation’s epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, in fact, that Rhode Island installed police and National Guard checkpoints at the border, with orders to stop cars carrying New York license plates. The governors of Maryland, South Carolina, and Texas, too, have ordered their police to stop and warn drivers with New York tags. Most retirees cannot afford second homes; when they downsize, there’s no extra cottage or condo to escape to. But, as MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski noted in an interview with Boston’s Massachusetts General Hospital Partners Healthcare President Peter Slavin, physical distancing in New York City, Boston, in other major congested areasit’s, it’s impossible. You are asking people to stay in their apartments, and in their small apartments, for long periods. For a few weeks, with most of the third spaces that make city life so enviablebars, restaurants, coffee shopsshuttered, Boston residents rediscovered the city’s parks. But, they visited green spaces and sports facilities in such numbers that physical distancing practices became nearly impossible, compelling Boston’s Mayor Marty Walsh to close public spaces, forcing people back inside. All told, COVID-19 has potentially reframed what people might view as desirable in terms of living space and neighborhood density. When the veil eventually lifts, what percentage of cities’ attractive pull will remain? Will stories of hipster Millennials and affluent retirees enjoying big lifestyles in small places be replaced by something far less pleasant? Memories do eventually fade, but the influence of the COVID-19 experience is likely to linger throughout the retirement years of the Baby Boomers. If so, a few possible scenarios might develop. Personal As Premium In one possibility, retirees will continue hoping to move to the city, but only if they can find more space than is currently on offer in typical urban, multifamily housing. This mismatch will certainly affect the number of people who can afford such a move, and those who do manage to downsize to cities may arrive with a new set of consumer preferencesto the surprise of developers. The current preference for housing complexes that err on the side of smaller quarters in favor of larger common areas may dissipate. In the wake of COVID-19, a ‘spacious studio’ or a one bedroom with a spare room may simply feel too small, and common amenity space too risky. Vast investments in common rooms and fitness centers may give way to ensuring adequate personal living space to save your relationship with your partner during quarantine and to fit your exercise bike that doubles as a clothes hanger. Urban Light Other empty nesters and retirees may seek urban-light living: housing in less dense areas of the city, or even suburbs. Communities that offer walkable, mini town centers with green space and a diversity of retail and restaurant activities, while still situated within ride-hailing distance of the big city, may find themselves attracting Millennials, Gen X’ers, and Baby Boomers alike. Suburban Sanctuary Finally, most people approaching retirementan estimated 87%report that they want to age-in-place. That is, they would prefer to stay in the home they live in today. For most Baby Boomers, that home is in the suburbs. The COVID-19 experience may have them doubling down on their current situation by remodeling or otherwise altering their current home: one that offers a sanctuary and space both inside and out.

From Your San Jose Real Estate Expert You may be wondering if there is value in buying or selling your home. With the current median price for single family homes at $1,200,000 in San Jose, and $720,000 for condos and townhomes, I will utilize my experience to help you determine if now is a good time to make a move.

"My husband and I were first-time home buyers, and were nervous about buying a home in this competitive market. We found Dare through Redfin, and we're so glad that we used him as our agent. Dare is very knowledgeable about the area, professional, friendly and informative. During our first meet we talked about what we were looking for and our budget. He patiently walked us through the process, and made everything very easy for us. Most importantly, we valued his integrity.... We saw around 25 houses that looking back, it wasn't worth the price we would have paid for many of them. Dare could have pushed us like many other real estate's agents and sold us any of the house we were looking into, but he encouraged us to hold out for the right house. He never rushed us on anything and was very patient throughout the process. Getting us into the right house at a good value was more important to him than making a quick commission. We would highly recommend Dare for anyone buying or selling their home." https://www.yelp.com/biz/sanctum-realty-services-san-jose
