Fighting Lock down Boredom
Hi everyone out there !! Hope all are doing well in these tough times. I never thought my first post would come out in such a time. Feeling awfully bored due to the lock down. First of all I am new to Australia and I know very few people here and on top of that this situation. OMG!! Have never been inside for so many days. First day was all good, second was ok and from the third it was like frustrating. But from frustrating thoughts came some useful thoughts. I thought i would do something useful with this time rather than wasting it away. So, I started doing things which I kept away for a very long time now. I started revisiting my hobbies like reading, singing, dancing and cooking. It has actually helped me deal with everything. I know everyone is really worried about the present global condition and all the chaos it has created. But, we need to understand one thing that from panic comes no gain. Please take precautions and do all you can to stay safe. Everyone is equally responsible for not spreading the virus. So, please follow all the safety measures. Save yourselves, your family, your nation and the world. Hope everything comes back to normal soon. Just a few tips to stay calm and relaxed which i have tried and thought someone might need it.
📚 Read a book which you wanted to read since a long time and couldn’t
👨👩👦👦 Do DIY’s with your family. You tube has many videos which can help.
💃 Dance for a few minutes 1 or 2 times a day. Or try learning watching videos.
🧘♂️ Start practicing Yoga. There are many apps or videos which can help.
🎶Have music running all day and sing along. Try karaoke websites if you are interested.
💻 Research on something you have interest on. Like e commerce or building up side hustles for extra money.
🎥 Watch evergreen movies or the ones you have missed.
⚽ Teach your kids new games which you used to play when you where a kid
🥘 Experiment with Cooking. Create and post your new recipes.
🏡 De clutter and clean your house. Will definitely make you feel relaxed after you have done it.
✨ Personalize your special corner in the house. You will feel happy spending your time there.
☕ Take your time to enjoy a cup of Coffee as i am sure most of us have it running every day.
💅 Please don’t forget to pamper yourself. Try doing it from natural ingredients from your kitchen and you will thank yourself for doing it.
These are the few things which i can think off to do in our free time now. Please let me what you are doing. Thank you so much for reading. Have a safe and great time.
PS - Today I started experimenting with my cooking. Tried something different with carrots (Carrot Chutney) and it came out well. At least one good thing for a day.
