Sick? Stay Home!

[sickstayhome]

Pace yourself! Pause and reflect on what’s important! Be patient! I know people are tired of quarantine and want to get back to normalcy, but we’ve seen surges in 14 states since reopening. I’ve also seen family and friends meeting up with family and friends with no masks on. That’s very risky! We have to exercise some self-control. Let’s not learn the hard way! 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠 . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #coronavirus #coldandflu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #health #etiquette #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/CBWozn6jecm/?igshid=ib4918w8acmr

I’ve seen and have personally experienced the difficulty with homemade masks that use elastics. It slips off your ears! 👂🏼 Wear a bandana instead. Steps to fold it: 1.) Lay out a bandana in a diamond ♦️ shape 2.) Then fold it down to make an upside down triangle 🔽 3.) Then fold the top (the width of your nose and mouth) and 4.) Then use the tail to tuck it into your shirt. 5.) Finally, tie it in a knot behind/below your ears. It’s a safe easy way to cover your mouth and nose! Stay safe, STAY HOME (except for exercise and essentials) and stay well. For more information about how to stay well, get my book.

The next two weeks are extraordinarily important," Birx said. "This is the moment to not be going to the grocery store, not going to the pharmacy, but doing everything you can to keep your family and your friends safe, and that means everybody doing the six feet distancing, washing your hands. - STAY HOME! #stayhome . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #coronavirus #cold #flu #coldandflu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #bookstagram #book #readmybook #only99cents #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B-mhT12DRsj/?igshid=k7lohk8iraza

A friend posted an article about #coronavirus on Facebook. I clicked on the link and there were five absolutely terrifying articles/headlines. This is what the media does. They find the WORST possible scenarios. Not that it makes them less real, but it takes away from the SUCCESS stories. And it takes away our HOPE, our POWER to be POSITIVE and FAITHFUL in all this. I’ll say it again - Do whatever you can to keep your vibration up - praying, meditating, music, doing things that bring us joy, exercising, being out in nature, breathing exercises, acupressure points for immunity, relaxation, etc., laughter, art, gratitude, love yourself, rest, good nutrition, vitamins, staying hydrated, etc. and so much more. The information or reading more information will be detrimental to our entire health (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual). Because FEAR will raise our cortisol levels, which tanks our #immunesystem ,as will lack of sleep (make #sleep a priority). 90% of illness are caused by #stress because of the #cortisol connection. It tanks our immune system to give us more energy to run away from that proverbial saber-tooth tiger. The #fear of the virus is more deadly than the virus itself. Fear also makes us highly suggestible. . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #virus #cold #flu #coldandflu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B92TTUogLr3/?igshid=rl9tdfwv3u92

Another almost cruel and unique feature of #coronavirus is that young people and children #infect but do not present #symptoms . Believing healthy, they infect the rest of their family. Also, a 20-year-old woman from Wuhan, China, transmitted the coronavirus to her family members without ever showing symptoms. It can take 2-12 days before you show symptoms. By now you’ve gotten the food you need, so STAY HOME, EVEN IF YOU’RE HEALTHY!!!!! Unless you’re forced to work. And practice #socialdistancing 🖐🏼 . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #virus #cold #flu #coldandflu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #health #etiquette #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B9wlwECAj8j/?igshid=17jxy7e8zqwkx

#coronavirus doesn’t #scare me, but the following does: #panicbuying #toiletpaper #sanitizer #food #masks etc. I saw a post that said hoarding all the soap 🧼 prevents people who do have the virus from washing their hands. Didn’t think that through, did they?. #isolation - my heart goes out to #prayforitaly I live in an apartment with 80% Chinese. The #racism that I’ve seen scares me. And the #germ #phobia does too. The media is scaring people. Be practical but don’t panic. For example, 1 confirmed case in Massachusetts out over 6 million people living here. My book (link in profile) has everything you need to know about staying well. I’m glad people aren’t going out when they’re sick. That’s the whole point of my book. But no need to panic. 🛑 . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #germs #cold #flu #coldandflu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #health #etiquette #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B9kw0i9g5Te/?igshid=k46a090wrnsv

Absolutely! I write about the lack of sick days in my book. This is definitely one of the reasons why I don’t go out to eat during cold and flu season. And now because of the #coronavirus Not because I’m scared, but because I’m practical. The food industry, especially, is going to get hit if they don’t change their policies! . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #virus #cold #flu #coldandflu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #health #etiquette #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B9RkkZ3AKm_/?igshid=1oa9vy73xy55l

‘And because most masks do not fit closely around the face, tiny airborne particles could still get through to the mouth and nose. Viruses invade eyes, too, and masks don’t cover those. Some masks could be worse than useless. Cloth masks have no efficacy at all, and may even INCREASE your risk of infection – especially if they are not washed regularly,’ she says. Stop wearing masks and wash your hands! Taking masks away from sick people will spread the viruses. Don’t panic. Be prepared. #coronavirus 🦠 . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #virus #cold #flu #coldandflu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #health #etiquette #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B9PRxq-ANEb/?igshid=mr3wdstpcxb4

I have never seen such #fear since the whole #coronavírus came about. Fear of illness 🦠 can bring on illness. The author of this article mentions good points - That the people who are wearing it, unnecessarily aren’t washing their hands and/or lifting up the mask 😷 to touch their face. Defeating the purpose. Also people who are not sick and wearing masks 😷 are taking supplies away from people who need it. Masks are meant for people who are sick, unless you have a compromised immune system and those masks are specifically designed for them. If you want to protect yourself from any virus 🦠 you have to be practical, by washing your hands and covering your mouth. Along with the other suggestions that are in my book. I am hopeful that the Coronavirus will wake people up to practicing health etiquette! . . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #cold #flu #virus #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #health #etiquette #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B9DF0kkAmst/?igshid=tz0f5sc59nmc

#Repost @minnesotamrsmom with @get_repost @sickstayhome #sickstayhome This is why I wear my bandana. 😂 ・・・ Germs. Nasty germs are everywhere right now. . I carry wet wipes in my purse at all times and I always keep a spare pack in my vehicle. My family knows this too and they ask me to hand them a wet wipe after being in the public if a sink isn’t around. And I gladly hand it over. . Wash your hands people. Also have your kids wash their hands really good after they get home from school. It’s nasty out there in those schools. 😷. .

Today is #hugday Sending you all a great big #hug ! I’m so grateful for all my followers. #touch is so #important for your #immunesystem I can’t stress it enough. I’m working on a #researchpaper about it. Make sure you get a hug from someone or from yourself, every single day for at least 15-20 minutes! If you don’t have anyone to hold you, hold a pillow and think of someone when you close your eyes. Your brain doesn’t know the difference. 🤗 To find more ways to stay well and boost your immune system, get my book 📚 Link in profile. 📝 . . . . #sickstayhome #sick #illness #coldandflu #cold #flu #staywell #coveryourmouth #washyourhands #health #etiquette #bookstagram #book #readmybook #99centsonly #ebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B8euaQvhqd5/?igshid=zkb702wr3df7
