• Reaffirm your commitment to healthy habits: During this time of uncertainty, it can be tempting to reach for foods that are convenient but not healthy. However, it’s crucial to both your mental and physical well-being to nourish your body with food that will sustain you. Make sure to keep hydrated, limit sugar and fat, and eat well-balanced meals during the day.
• Extend kindness: Being nice makes you feel good! While you’re spending time alone, take the opportunity to think about those you care about. Decorate cards or make a video for your loved ones. Now is a great time to let your loved ones know how you feel.
• Ask for support: If you start to feel lonely or isolated, do not hesitate to reach out. Call your counselor or a family member and ask for help.
• Stay connected: Many facilities have closed to visitors for an indefinite time period. But this doesn’t mean you can’t visit with your family virtually! Apps like Skype, FaceTime, and WhatsApp will allow you to see your family members without putting yourself at risk of contracting the virus or other illnesses.
