Coronavirus is not to be taken lightly, which is why it is suggested to follow the authorities' recommendations of staying at home and washing the hands to stop the spread of COVID-19. These measures have caused a large part of the population to remain in quarantine, which for many has been very difficult due to the accelerated lifestyle to which they are accustomed.

To help time to pass faster while the entire world recovers from this infection that caused a pandemic, we are sharing some recommendations. Perhaps doing one of these activities per day will save you from boredom and avoid generating stress or anxiety caused by the constant news related to the disease.

It’s planting time

Have you ever thought about growing your own plants at home? Take advantage of these days and start growing some fruits, vegetables or beautiful flowers that will give a fresh and natural touch to your home. Little by little you will see the results and you will be amazed.

Hidden memories

Use one of these days to check those drawers where you keep everything and nothing. Perhaps you will find pleasant memories or something that is not worth keeping.

A clean home

Perhaps the most common thing to do these days is cleaning. And yes, it serves to distract you and not think about the number of cases of people effected with coronavirus. Move all the furniture and clean thoroughly. You will see that later you will feel calm and proud to see everything without dust.

Accumulated clothing

It is a good time to take your clothes out of your closet and see what pieces no longer fit your style. Ask yourself these simple questions to help you decide what to keep. Does it match what you have? Is it broken or does it look very old? Have you used it in the last year? Does fits you? Depending on the answers, you will know what to keep and what to throw away.

Handy repairs

At home there are usually many repairs that we leave for another day. But since now what is left is time, you can take advantage of it to fix everything that is broken or decomposed and that you do not want to throw away. Of course, what requires a professional, such as plumbing, better leave it in the hands of experts for another occasion.

Gym at home

Being quarantined is no reason to cancel the bikini operation. You can exercise at home and stay fit. On the internet, there are many expert videos that will help you lose a few kilos. Yoga, Pilates, cardio, dance ... You decide!

Online classes

Sometimes daily routines leave little time to continue learning. And that is precisely why online courses exist. You can learn a new language, study a master's degree or even learn to cook with simple tutorials. The possibilities are endless!

Beauty tricks

If you have several masks for the skin or hair, do not miss the opportunity to give yourself some TLC. Facial cleansing and proper treatment will make you look great when you return to your normal life.

Board games and TV shows

If you are quarantined with your familia, have some fun. Take out those board games that you haven't played in a while and have fun in a big way. If you are tired, put on a series or several movies that will keep you interested in fictional stories.

Stay in touch with your loved ones

Search your friends and send them messages to find out how they are. If quarantine does not allow you to meet, do so via video call. Everyone can prepare dinner at home and eat together thanks to technology. They can even watch series at the same time thanks to the Netflix Party extension.

Pamper yourself and relx

Remember all those times you have been on the bus or at work thinking about how much you would like to be home to sleep until your body says enough. You can take a relaxing bath and then sleep soundly without worrying about being late to an appointment.
