Here are the habits Poumpouras says she has learned and developed over the years that can help anyone become mentally resilient."Adaptability is key" in times like these, Poumpouras tells CNBC Make It. It's especially important with the current pandemic, because things will likely not go back to the way they used to be and people need to stop living in the past and instead focus on the present moment, Poumpouras says.
To stay present in reality and erase past and future thoughts, Poumpouras suggests meditation and practices it herself every evening. She also advises people not the watch too much news as reports about death and things like protests can affect your psyche.
