Clean your home, cook healthy meals, draw something, write a story, make a call to your parents and spend time with your children. Basically just make a list of activities for every day.

Diet

Eating a healthy, balanced and vitamins enriched diet will not just boost your immunity but will also keep you from gaining all those extra pounds while you are quarantined. So make sure you include all those fruits, vegetables, fiber-enriched in your diet.

Choose exercises that don’t involve rigorous motions. It is important to understand that exercise boost your immune system but not at the cost of damaging your organs. If a workout is too strenuous for you, it’s better to not go with it.

Sleep

As a general rule, 8 hours sleep is the adequate amount of sleep adults should take every day. However, there are people who need more sleep depending on different factors. Also, sleeping time for children could be more, so make sure to let them sleep more while they can.

No Smoking

And last but not the least, stay home, stay safe. We encourage you to keep your distance from your loved ones for the sake of their health. We hope that we’ll soon come out of this with better health and high spirits, till then, take very good care of yourself.
