Safe Harbour

The pandemic was an unprecedented time of stress for Islanders. The Island was locked down at the border, and Islanders were cut off from family and friends everywhere. Normally a very social and welcoming people had their worlds turned upside down.  Adrian McNally Smith was not immune to the effects of these lockdowns. Through thoughtful and inspiring social media posts he reflected on his own experiences, focusing on what he was learning about himself and those around him. These posts became a lifeline for many of his followers and he realized that the things he was feeling were universal.

This collection of mediations comes out of his work to maintain his own mental health with the hope that he can help others through difficult times.
