During the #COVID19 pandemic when out and about, make hand sanitizer part of your mask wearing routine. #WearAMask #CleanYourHands

As strange a habit as it may seem, talking to yourself out loud is *totally* normal. Not only is it normal, but it can be a big help in a number of different scenarios. Think of self-directed speech (aka talking to yourself) as lending yourself a helping hand in tricky situations 🤝. Take misplacing your keys, for example. Research finds that saying the name of whatever you’re looking for out loud can help you locate it more easily than simply thinking about the item. This is because hearing the name of the item reminds your brain what you’re looking for, which helps you visualize it and notice it more easily.
