How to keep in touch during a lockdown: 3 low tech ways
I keep in touch best with face-to-face contact and physical touch. I’m missing both during this pandemic.
Phone calls carry conversation and laughter, tears and long moments of silence. Each relationship plays out in its own way during a call. The subject matter, words, tone and cadence bring a sense of familiarity to the interaction.I used to find silence during a phone call worrisome and unsettling. I’ve since learned that it’s part of the conversation. Folding my laundry while talking to my mom there are times of quiet and times of conversation.
To ensure that you connect well on a phone call think about the reason for your call and what you want to say. You may want to:Think about what the person you are calling needs . Be yourself and meet that need as possible. If conversation is limited, discuss things of mutual interest or something easily understood.
I heard of a woman who would stand on the sidewalk and do her exercises. Her father, looking through the fourth floor of his retirement home would follow along. Soon other residents followed suit. Write your own words in a way that reflects your feelings and relationship. Draw from things you have in common, such as-people you both know, or the changing season including the view from your window and theirs.
