Cut Social Media Time Out

Go Outside Atleast Once a day.
According to research done by Harvard, going out for a walk and seeing nature has tangible mental health benefits. For us on lockdown, that means going out into the garden or on the balcony for some fresh air and some sunshine.

Read.
Reading can have benefits similar to meditation. It’s another way of escaping your mind. Stories with a structure of a beginning, middle, and end can sometimes be a powerful form of therapy for someone stuck in a psychological moment.
