Here we have 9 tips plus a bonus one for you at the end, for staying healthy during isolation

1. Routine and Goals Your brain loves patterns and routines, and

様態の副詞

maybe your normal routine is out the window right now (literally). Spending the day aimlessly

wondering around without a plan will leave your brain wondering what on earth is going

on, so lets set up some patterns for your day, your brain will thank you for it!

Let's go old school, grab one of these ancient tools (a pen), now some repurposed flattened

white tree sheets. Not talking about your secret back up toilet roll stash, just regular

paper will do. Write down what you want to do tomorrow. Now put it into rough time slots.

Maybe it looks something like this. Get up, workout, shower, breakfast, check emails,

do work, lunch, call a friend, hobby hour, more work, FaceTime Dave, we all have a friend

called Dave who needs some love right? Dinner, hobby break 2, Rick and Morty o Netflix journaling,

reading, then bed. Sound a pretty nice day actually right? Of course you don't have

to stick to it religiously but a general outline of your day will be your guidance and grounding

for where you should be. Do make sure to mix it up a little though on some days, but keep

a general consistency to your plans And while you are at it, do you have any goals

you want to aim for this week or month? Set some realistic dates to finish that new project

you have started and mark it on your calendar, then when that is done set some more goals.

For example, Learn that new song on the guitar next week and schedule in 30mins in the evening

and put everything else aside to do this.

2.Jouranaling We just mentioned journaling, but what's

the deal with it? If you are having feelings of anxiety, boredom or frustration accumulating

in your head they are serving no positive purpose in there, and can eventually lead

to deeper negative feelings and moods. Journaling can be done in many ways, But the

aim is to clarify your thoughts and feelings, put a bit more order into the jumble of your

brain and get closer to the core of your problems. Just the act of getting out frustrations in

this manner can lower stress and make you more present. I advise grabbing that pen and

paper again just before bed and writing about the positives and negatives of your day. Your

brain will be less active for addressing any issues you have and it can help settle you

down for sleep without having that argument you had or that issue with work bouncing around

your brain when you switch the lights off. Unless you sleep with the lights on, then

3.reflection/purpose And along with journaling, you might start

using this time to do some bigger reflection on yourself. Maybe you have been too busy

for a long long time to really sit with yourself and think about your purpose in life, where

you are, how you got here, what do you want going forward and what do you need? Now you

have the time to tackle some bigger questions you might have been putting off or not had

time to digest in a busy day to day life, you can really utilise this time to reflect

on bigger issues and come out of this feeling ready for a new chapter, where you can regain

One big question is how we spend most of our days, in our jobs. Is the job or study you

have making you happy? A lot of people are now out of work or working from home, but

do you love you job? Do you want to be doing this for the rest of your working life just

to make ends meet or is it something you really enjoy and want to be doing?

Think about tackling these four points when thinking about your current job or speculating

on a career you are passionate about. • Are you good at it?

• Do you love it? • Is it something the world needs?

• And can you earn enough from it? If you answered yes to all of these then you

are probably in the right job, but if not, is there something else you would love to

do? Of course money is a factor here but times like these can really put money into perspective,

life can be fragile and fleeting, so lets do something we can look back on and say we

4. Relationships and connections (and help others)

Humans are innately social creatures, and without regular, fulfilling and varied social

interactions a feeling of loneliness can creep in, and chronic loneliness is shown to shorten

life expectancy and can be as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.

Make sure to set some time aside to be connecting with family and friends also isolating from

their homes. You will show you are looking out for them and both reap the benefits of

a dopamine rush on a video call or voice call to each other. Ask how they are really feeling

and have a listen. Maybe that friend or relative you have not

spoken to for a while, could you ring them and see how they are and get an update on

their life, all little actions that go a long way in strengthening bonds with each other

and fending off loneliness that may creep in if you decide to keep yourself to yourself.

If you are isolating with others you will be relying on them a lot and them on you.

You will need to make sure you are having time to connect together and also times apart

when you need a breather or some space. Being confined together can cause friction in any

relationship, so kindness and allocating areas for quiet time will go a long way.

Oh and don't forget your penpal from France you had growing up, write them a letter too….

5.Social media addiction Even though we want to stay connected with

people we do need to keep our social media use in check right now more than ever. Without

much incentive in the day it can be easy to just scroll your way through a whole hour

of the day, be honest have you been doing that? After 3 days of isolation I caught myself

doing this and decided to take some action. Studies on social media use show that over

usage actually increases feelings of social isolation and in turn increases loneliness.

So I deleted the social media apps off of my phone but kept my chat apps like Messenger

and WhatsApp so I could keep the connections with people I wanted to chat and speak to,

the real quality connections you have. Give it a go, or at least allocate time to check

social media if you feel you are over using it. I actually recommend only using the internet

at this time if it has a purpose or reward for you. Like….watching this amazing video….but

6. hobbies / time to learn something new Maybe after dropping social media you find

you have an extra hour of your day back, so you can pick up that hobby you had. Get your

camera out and start experimenting with some super arty shots, learn chords on that dusty

guitar, get creative in the kitchen and cook up a storm and throw over cooked brownies

at any youths loitering on the streets still or start looking for online classes and YouTube

tutorials for your hobby of choice. Crochet is prettttty hot right now.

If you want to learn how to animate like us we will leave a few links to good tutorials

7. Body health As well as your brain, your body might also

be growing cobwebs, how much do we miss a stroll through the park or a hike for the

gram right now? We need to keep our bodies moving, fitness lowers stress hormones, releasing

the feel good hormone dopamine. It can be a key part to our daily routines in combating

isolation. You may be allowed to go out for a daily run still but if not all you need

is a bit of space to move and jump about, 20minutes and someone to tell you what to

do. Well I need someone to tell me what to do or I just eat chips instead… Check out

Joe Wicks on YouTube, he has Home friendly HIIT videos that you can do that work up a

sweat, catering for all levels, from beginner to Olympian. I recommend his 500 rep challenge,

it's a tough start to the day but such a rewarding challenge and leaves you feeling

energised to tackle another day. If HIIT is not your thing, check out Zumba class videos,

start a 30 day yoga challenge series, or how about learning how to do a headstand in the

two weeks even, go on we dare you, the crew will be amazed.
