The past two years have wrought an unprecedented traumatic experience on the entire world. People have faced social isolation and threat to life from a virus that lurks at every turn. Because humans have the same survival instincts as any other mammal, our automatic responses have been to fight, flee from potential risk, collapse into hopelessness, remain frozen in fear inside our homes, or to cry for help. The challenge we face as the pandemic nears its end is learning how to live again in a world without threat, how to ‘turn off’ the survival responses that have become increasingly automatic, and how to recover from the ordeal with which we have been living.
