Welcome to How to Cope! A new podcast exploring just how we can best manage our mental health, when the global coronavirus crisis is doing its very best to pummel our sanity into a pulp.
Each episode, writer Becky Howard and psychotherapist Lucy Clyde will explore one element of the overwhelming amount of changes we're all having to deal with - and help us all find our way through this the best way we can.
From relationship challenges to mood swings, loneliness to parenting crises, Covid-19 is having all sorts of unprecedented impacts on our lives. So we're going to talk, share advice, and laugh our way through this, from a socially-responsible distance of at least 2 metres, of course.

Rob da Bank has been getting the party started for decades, ever since he first started DJing in the 1990s. But one of the biggest casualties of the Covid-19 crisis has been live music and festivals, and with the 2021 summer festival season now in doubt, we caught up with Rob to found how he has coped with this radical change in his life.
We chat to Rob about how he’s managing with homeschooling his four sons at home in the Isle of Wight, and why being able to spend time outdoors and in nature is keeping him going. As the co-founder, along with his wife Josie, of legendary festivals Bestival and Camp Bestival, we also talk about the sense of connection and belonging that people get from festivals, how they’re nourishing for our souls and how we’re all missing those release valves in our lives because of the lockdowns.
Rob has moved into meditation teaching in the past few years, and so we also talk to him about how he’s shifted his focus from making people happy through DJing, to helping them discover their true self through meditation. Rob and Josie now run Sleep Retreat, an ‘antidote to 21st century living’ where yoga and meditation provide a calm respite from our over-screened worlds.
Thanks so much to Rob for talking to us – we hope you enjoy it.
