Tips for Looking after yourself During this time
-
Keep an eye on the news enough to stay informed but don't look at it too much, remember as long as you are following the rules, you're doing the best you can to help the situation. Worrying helps no one.
-
Try to eat healthy, well balanced meals, drink plenty of water, exercise if you can and try and get some fresh air and sunlight every day. Our physical health massively effects our emotions and looking after our bodies is a great way to improve our mood!
-
Try to get a good nights sleep. Worry keeping you up or interrupting your day? Here's a really simple way to calm your nerves you could try: Breathe in as you count to 4 and then breathe out and count to 7. So, breathe in 1-2-3-4 breathe out 1-2-3-4-5-6-7. Or, Here's a list of guided meditations.
-
Take time to do things you enjoy: read, play a board game, draw, write, do a crossword puzzle, cook, garden etc.
-
Be careful not to overdo it on DIY attempts, this is not a good time to have to go to A&E!
-
Of course, pray, explain your worries to God, stay hopeful and take some time for quiet prayer.
