We need to be patient and wait till it&#8217;s safe to go outside.\u00a0 However,\u00a0 it can be daunting trying to stay active inside our home since we have always thought of our home as a relaxing and comforting place to return after\u00a0 colleges or work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">I used to be fascinated by the idea of working from home. In fact, I thought that is what my ideal job would look like. COVID-19 made my dream come true but then I realized that working from home is not as easy as I thought. It is difficult to stay focused in the comfort our own house. Hence, these tips might help you if you are trying to stay active and focused at home:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">1. Have a schedule:<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Always plan your day ahead and make a routine so that you don&#8217;t wander around without direction. When you don&#8217;t have anything to do, you&#8217;ll feel bored and seek social medias to get out of the boredom. As a result,\u00a0 you are likely to spend your most of the day scrolling the feed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">2. Exercise daily:<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Since we are staying at home, it&#8217;s\u00a0 obvious we are not\u00a0 getting much exercise, leading us to lethargy. Body movements are necessary to wake up our body and mind. So, make time for daily exercise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">3. Dress up:<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">If you are working or studying from home but you&#8217;re not as productive then you should try dressing up. Most of the times,\u00a0 it&#8217;s the environment that triggers our motivation. Do not attend classes or meeting in your pajamas. Get ready as you used to before COVID-19.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">4. Sneak peek your hobbies and tend to them:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">There must be things that you enjoy doing. It\u00a0 could\u00a0 be painting, singing, writing poetry, cooking, gardening,\u00a0 etc. You don&#8217;t have to be good at your hobbies, you just have to enjoy them. Spend time tending to these hobbies that makes you feel good.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">5. Catch up with good people:<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Good people are the ones that motivate you and help you grow. They always give positive vibes and you like to be around them. Though we may not be able to meet them in person, you can catch up with them online.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It is important for our well being to stay focused and motivated. It&#8217;s not that it is difficult to stay active at home. Besides, in the future we may not get plenty of free time as right now. So let us make use of this time in a positive way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Staying active at home can be tough but here are some tips to help you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":2949,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[651,650,659],"class_list":["post-2950","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-opinion","tag-covid-19","tag-productivity","tag-staying-home"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1602600021_tmp_writing-828911_640-bf952152.jpg?fit=640%2C426&ssl=1","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pd0y3h-LA","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2950"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2950"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2950\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3008,"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2950\/revisions\/3008"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2950"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mindbody.com.np\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
