Introduction
The global lockdown, ushered by the COVID 19 pandemic, caught most of us by surprise, however, since we have to keep our lives going even in this worldwide quarantine it’s of paramount importance to make an effort to preserve our mental and physical wellbeing.
Here are seven simple tips that will help you stay safe and healthy during the quarantine.
Tweak your diet
Improve your eating habits, insert a lot of fruits and vegetables in your system to build up vitamin and fibers concentration. Vitamin C is very helpful with strengthening your immune response, and garlic is an amazing nutrient to increase your white cell count. Keep sugar and fat away from your plate as much as possible to prevent cardiovascular system issues.
Vent your rooms
Both body and mind need to maintain an interrupted flow of oxygen to keep our metabolism and brain functions nominal and thus help our immune system fight any micro-intruders. Air-condition systems can’t filter out the microbes from our room, therefore, it’s best to open up your windows and let the fresh air enter the room.
Avoid physical interaction with humans
People carry infection, so keep your quarantine measures as strict as possible. See only those people you need to see and try to avoid physical contact when there’s an alternative. Order food and clothes online, preferably include a contactless delivery option, if there’s any available. If you need help with studies or a tutor, there are online academic and essay writing help agencies that you can contact.
Set up a training routine
Sitting in a chair, watching Netflix all day could be fun for a while, but our muscles, lungs, and bones suffer from lack of strain. Keep your body in shape and avoid muscle atrophy by establishing an evening or morning exercise schedule. This will put your whole body into motion and keep you strong in case you need to fight the bug.
Keep your house clean
If you occasionally get visitors, make sure there are enough hand sanitizers or wet wipes to clean up the table, doorknobs, and your hands. Don’t obsess over keeping your living space sterile, just make sure to sanitize surfaces and items you’re in touch the most. Vent your home when the visitors leave.
Keep yourself busy
A monotonous lifestyle hurts the human mindset, it can lead to depression, anxiety, loss of self-confidence. Try and keep a productive daily routine or start a hobby that will keep your mind away from dark thoughts and news of death. Plan a vacation for the future to build up your spirits.house cleaning
Capture sunlight
Stay on the sun as much as possible. If you have a balcony or a porch, get out and let the sun fill you up with vitamin D, which is important for our immune system. If you feel like going out to enjoy the sun, make sure to keep your distance.
Conclusion
These pointers are easy to follow and they all have a considerable influence on our health. Keep your mind positive, take care of your body, and stay safe. The times might be challenging but there’s always beauty to be found.
