Have you ever been on a treadmill wearing one of those safety devices when by accident you hit the magnet and all of your momentum comes to a screeching halt. You of course first look around to see if any of the other gym members saw you and then attempt to recover by replacing the magnet in the safety slot and resume your run\/walk. If you have experienced this embarrassing and jolting scenario, you know that getting back in to the stride of the run\/walk can be difficult.<\/p>\n

For many, the changes over this past month feels a bit like the safety magnet has come out of the treadmill.\u00a0 The abrupt change in living situation, loss of a job, requirement to quarantine, transition to virtual classrooms has caused a loss of momentum.\u00a0 This loss can be expected given the circumstances.
