Taking Care of your Body

While dealing with stress and anxiety try to take baths, stretch, mediate, try and eat healthy foods, maintain good nutrition, exercise and get plenty of sleep.

Maintaining a Positive Mindset

While being in the middle of a pandemic, it is very easy to focus on the negative perspective of life and the way the world is which can take a toll on a persons mental health. But trying to maintain a positive outlook on life could be beneficial for your mental health. Try cooking or cleaning, going for a walk, talking on the phone to a friend, painting and taking up some home hobbies such as arts and crafts.

Maintaining Healthy Relationships

As it is difficult for people to see their friends and family during the Coronavirus, maintaining healthy relationships by calling, texting or seeing them while maintaining social distancing can help prevent anxiety and stress. Not only can it prevent stress and anxiety but can also cure any loneliness or isolation people feel. Talking about how you are feeling to a friend or family member can help ease the stress and take off some anxiety you might be feeling during these hard times.
