Stay Home Activities (2020 Update)

Daily Exercising and Working Out 

Most gyms are currently closed, you can still work out and keep yourself healthy while you are in quarantine. You can start with daily exercising and working out at home. A yoga mat and weights are a start. You can also join in with free exercise classes online, too.

Whip Up Tasty and Healthy Meals

While grocery shopping, make sure to avoid busy hours and avoid getting close to others. Also, make sure to wipe down all your grocery store items once you return home to disinfect any surfaces that may have come in contact with the virus. After you have returned home from your grocery store safely, you can now whip up tasty and healthy meals that you and your family will love. You will be surprised what you can think of to make when you have a lot of time on your hands. While many people miss eating at their favorite diners and restaurants, that may not mean you can’t still enjoy their foods.  Many local restaurants are offering delivery and take out options to help keep their businesses afloat during this difficult time. You will be supporting them while giving yourself a break from cooking, too. 

Sunshine Daily Equals Vitamin D 

Research has proven that getting sunshine daily is good for your health. Daily sunshine will provide your body with a dose of Vitamin D, which helps keep you healthy. You can go outside daily for sunshine if you have a yard, but make sure to avoid the sun during 10:00am to 4:00pm due to the harsh sun rays. Early morning or late evening sun is best. If you happen to live in an apartment or have no yard, you can still get your daily sunshine and Vitamin D by just sitting by a sunny windowsill. 

Get Your Home Organized and Decluttered

Have you been wanting to organize and declutter your home, but you never had the time? You now have the time, so you can clean out those cluttered drawers and closets. There will be many people affected by the coronavirus crisis, so set aside old clothes or other household items you no longer want. That way, you can donate clothes, toys and other household items to people in need. Plus, as you organize your home, take the time to deep clean and sanitize, too. 

Precious Time with Family 

Nearly everyone will agree that this difficult time has added stress to their lives. However, don’t let it take over your life. You need to keep yourself busy, and it is healthy to use this precious time to spend quality moments with your family. You can watch movies that you haven’t had time for, or play cards or board games. This is a precious time that you and your family will treasure later.
