Some tips for anyone who is stuck at home due to Covid - 19
As many of use are stuck in self-isolation as work and school moves into an online format, I was wanted to share some of my best tips for remaining productive, and not going crazy, when you can’t leave the house.
1. Keep your space clean.
A simple concept but good to keep in mind, give your space a really good deep clean right now, and then keep things keeps by wiping down counters, doing your dishes, making your bed, and putting away clothes daily.
2. Keep yourself clean
When you are not seeing anyone it can be easy to fall into a rut of wearing the same sweatshirt every day and not washing your hair, but it is so important to stay feeling clean and fresh when you cant leave the house. Feeling good about yourself will help you stay more productive, and the acts of showing, doing your hair, and changing your clothes are little self-care things that are easily overlooked when you are not leaving.
3. Build new routines
Now that you don’t have to leave the house this is a great time to introduce new habits into your life. Always wanted to wake up at 5:00am? Give it a try! Want to do a meditation every evening? Go for it!
4. Connect with friends
Don’t sacrifice your group meetings, Skype them in. Study with friends over FaceTime, or just call a loved one to chat for a little. Self isolation doesn’t need to feel lonely.
5. Freshen the air
Try to open the windows at least one a day to clean out your space. Have a nice candle going at night, or put your diffuser on during the day. Keeping you space smelling fresh is essential to not feeling like you are trapped.
6. Make a plan
Know what you have to do and schedule it. Try to schedule blocks of work and rest for yourself. And ensure you are accomplishing a few things on your to-do list every day so that you don’t feel like you are falling into a slump! (Note: this can be something as simple as make the bed, take a shower, or eat a nice meal.)
Move every day (some yoga, a dance party by yourself, anything)
Make sure you practice self-care: this is a stressful time!
Do a face mask, or paint your nails
Don’t wear pajamas all day, but you can stay comfy!
Watch new movies or start a new tv show
Treat yourself kindly in this hard time.
