Self-Love At Home
Since the COVID-19 pandemic started, we have all been advised to stay indoors. Many people are experiencing pandemic fatigue from the stress that comes with self-isolation. We may also feel a little bit cooped up because of the uncertainty that surrounds us.
If you’re feeling this way, please know that you’re not alone. One way to feel a bit of comfort is to take care of yourself. Just read on for self-love activities that will give you a boost of energy and wellness.
Maintain a healthy and balanced diet
According to research, happy people tend to eat healthier. If you’re feeling a bit down then it may be connected to your diet. Are you eating a lot of junk food or fast food lately? If you are, then we suggest you swap out fast food and processed snacks in favour of whole foods and fruits that are full of nutrition. This change will improve your mood right away.
Eating right is also one of the best healthy skin tips out there! Beverages such as the Beautéssence botanical drink is full of nutrients that will boost your immune system and also your skin health.
Organise your workspace for a clearer head
While we work from home, we may feel bombarded with the clutter at home and from work. From your morning routine of scrolling through social media to the clutter of your workspace, it may become overwhelming.
Try to take 10-20 minutes a day to declutter. Focus on tidying up your desk and then you can go on to cleaning your workspace and other corners of your home. The key is to start small to avoid feeling overwhelmed and you will feel so much more productive as time goes on.
Exercise to keep your heart healthy and happy
The pandemic has made it challenging to maintain a physically active lifestyle but that doesn’t mean that you should wait until after the pandemic to be active again. Regular exercise can help reduce feelings of stress and anxiety as you take care of yourself!
Follow an exercise video, use home cardio machines and dance to your favourite music a few times per week. You will feel so much better after each exercise session.
