Rebooting During The Pandemic Downtime - Award Winning Selfie Filmmaker Barbara Becker Holstein Shows Us How To Come Out On The Other Side Better, Stronger, More Resilient
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Holstein is an award winning Selfie Filmmaker, Positive Psychologist and podcaster who helps us overcome anxiety and alienation through multiple media channels.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>[Long Branch, NJ, June 9, 2020] <\/span>There are generally two ways to view the situation the pandemic lockdown has created. We can see it as a problem, a nuisance, a troublesome event. Or we can see it as an opportunity to reboot and prepare to come out the other side better, stronger and more resilient. Award winning Selfie filmmaker and Positive Psychologist Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein strongly believes the pandemic offers us an opportunity to dramatically improve our lives by using the time to reboot, paying attention to six key ideas:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Sleep<\/span>
\n2. Exercise<\/span>
\n3. Nutrition<\/span>
\n4. Socializing<\/span>
\n5. Using Your Past to Enhance Your Future<\/span>
\n6. Creating an historical record<\/span><\/p>\n

In a new video, https:\/\/vimeo.com\/426513471<\/a>, Dr. Holstein offers some sage advice regarding how to take the first steps. But, being an award winning filmmaker, she wants us to focus on number 6 - creating a record for future generations. She intends to create an historical record of selfie films from pandemic survivors and is now actively seeking selfie videos for the collection. Those who wish to submit their own selfie films can do so at http:\/\/www.SelfieFilmmakers.com<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"You are part of an historical \u2018moment\u2019, Dr Holstein stated. \u201cIt may feel like forever now, but the day will come when the pandemic is over. Historians will look back in 1000 years and wonder how we handled this pandemic. Hopefully, they will live in a world that no longer has viruses. So, help them out. Take advantage of your cell phones and record a record of your life during the pandemic. Video your family or housemates, show the future what you cooked, the puzzles you made, the homework setup at the kitchen table. Interview each other about how the pandemic is affecting you. What you hope the future will be like. What you are worried most about. What you may do differently in the future. I am sure you will come up with lots of interesting things to talk about and show. After all, you are a survivor. So let the rebooting start!\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Holstein's talk about Rebooting During The Pandemic can be found on both Vimeo and on the Roku channel, titled as 'The Enchanted Self Presents'.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Holstein recently created The Selfie Showcase, a new project emerging from The Selfie Project, that allows young people to voice their opinions on subjects that matter to young people. She is now accepting submissions from the public for the \"Selfie Showcase\" and is actively seeking change-makers and mental health professionals to appear on her monthly video podcasts.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Selfie Showcase allows kids, teens, and young adults ages 13 to 18 to candidly express their concerns, worries, observations and possible solutions by creating selfies or selfie films around important subjects, using a smartphone. Dr. Holstein's mission is to help rectify, in a number of ways, some of the issues young people face by giving them a chance to engage with others in meaningful ways about the anxiety and stress they must grapple with constantly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Selected participants may appear on the Selfie Project Channel, available on Youtube at https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC3uaOTcYF70z5CpBh11VoUQ<\/a>. They will also appear in the Selfie Showcase on SelfieFilmmakers.com. They will receive a certificate of merit and may be invited to be on Holstein's monthly podcast or perhaps be a part of her next film. Full details, rules for submission and helpful hints can be accessed at the Selfie Filmmakers site at http:\/\/www.selfiefilmmakers.com\/instructions<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
