- Suggestions for your Health during Quarantine
Most people will agree with Health professionals that social isolation during events such as the Covid19 situation is not ideal for our overall wellness. In the pre-Covid19 pandemic world, social interaction and physical activity of varying amounts was the usual everyday occurrence for most humans. The reduced interaction and activities due to the various levels and aspects of the quarantining is hard on our minds and bodies. Different situations and degrees of quarantining require a variety of measures to keep you happy and healthy, so here are some tips from experts to help you keep on top of your situation.
- Retain a daily routine as close as possible to pre-quarantine situation. That is try to keep the same times for waking up, eating, exercising, and working (if possible), with regard to limitations on going out. These are things you can control. Don’t stress about things you can’t control.
- Don’t be negative about things, especially with those who you are living with. Complaining can generate a toxic environment for everyone. If you really need to vent your negative feelings, then do it with trusted people outside of your quarantine situation. Note that this is probably sound advice for everyday life.
- Continue to express love to your loved ones, allow plenty of time for them, especially if that is who you are quarantined with.
- Remember your self-care with plenty of sleep each night, plus other things such some time for your activities such as reading or watching TV, including those such as puzzles or gardening that take your mind off day to day worries.
- Stay connected with other people outside the quarantine situation, by phone, email, or when out of the home when possible. Staying connected to other people is always a good thing.
- If you are working from home, set and maintain boundaries between home and work activities including a physical location and also times which was part of point 1 above. Keeping them separate will enable you to wind down from work, therefore relaxing and being happier.
- If you are considering new work options, perhaps some online learning or courses may be of assistance. Explore your options. Perhaps someone you know may be of assistance or can guide you.
- Where possible, go for at a least a walk every day to provide your body with some exercise and your mind some time to relax. Moderate physical activity is always good for your mood.
- Limit your time on technology things such as social media and TV, including limiting the negative impact of news services on your mood. Take more time on other activities.
- If you are struggling with your situation, seek expert help such as counsellors, life coaches and other trusted professionals.
- Remember that Covid19 will pass, although it may not seem like it at times.
- Focus on the present and make the best of the situation.

- Activities during Self Isolation
Need some ideas of what to do during these times of Self Isolation? Well here are some suggestions for you to consider. Hopefully they will get you thinking about what else you may be able to do, with what you have on hand. Activities range from the what you may already do at home to the less obvious.

- Some positives from Coronavirus
Although the Coronavirus outbreak has created huge challenges for everyone around the world, there are some positives developing from the situation for various aspects of our environment. Reports from many places around the world advise that due to the vastly reduced human and vehicle activity, things such as air quality has improved and water pollution is reducing.
Examples include that air pollution in Denmark has reduced by 30%, Columbia has opened up a network of bike lanes in their capital Bogota to reduce vehicle activity to help improve air quality which will help stop the spread of the Coronavirus, air pollution is clearing over northern Italy where also the Venice canals are becoming clear to enable them see aquatic life, cities in China report that Carbon Dioxide emissions are down by 25% during February, New York and Los Angeles air quality is reported to be vastly improved since people were made to stay home and there are very few vehicles on the roads.

Venice canals becoming clear so they can see fish and plant life. The reduced use of fossil fuels which produce large amounts of Carbon Dioxide have also helped to contribute to the improvement which is evident from satellite images, such as those taken of parts of Europe and also China as shown below.
Combined NASA Satellite image of China over dates indicated.
Pollution in it’s various forms continues to reduce, according to reports which are widespread. But when after the Coronavirus has passed and Countries try to stimulate their economies, there is a huge danger that the environment may be ignored in search of cheap ways to provide energy, etc. Hopefully there will be strong consideration given to how we can maintain these environmental improvements where possible.

- Workplace Advice
Some words to help you in your working life.
- Laughing can be good for you
- Life is Beautiful Quotes
These are some quotes to remind us about what is always there for us.
Living our Life has many aspects that can be regarded to be beautiful, even minor things like having time for a morning coffee or cup of tea, spending time with people who we value, and the place we live. Sometimes we forget just how good it is to be alive. So try to remember to see it in the people and environment we live in.
You will have seen this quote playing out during your life, and not always in ways that are apparent at the time. We all reflect, at various times and ways, the actions and values of people that are part of our world. So for a better world, we need to consider this quote.
- Help with Big Decisions
Sometimes when needing to make big decisions in our life, it can be difficult to do. Research by reputable organisations has provided several options to help you with making that important choice or path in life.
The old advice of sleeping overnight on it is a very good option. Research has shown that when asleep our brains have time to process all the various inputs and put them into context for you, plus it may also provide other options or ideas which you may not have thought of while awake and feeling under pressure to make that important decision.
Taking a long walk has also been shown to be very beneficial for giving your brain time to process all the information, including your emotions, about what you are trying to decide.
Also, just having a break from the decision making area and possibly have a refreshing drink and a snack, will once again give you time to contemplate the options for the decision to be made.
The essence of the research indicates that you need to provide your brain with time away from other distractions, including the pressure of the situation, to let your brain time to process all the information. Remember that the bigger the decision, also the longer time frame of the result of the decision, and the less you are familiar with the subject to be decided, the more time you should give yourself time to develop the decision.
Once the decision has been made, be happy with the decision.
- Feel Good Summer Days
Most people look forward to that time of year when they get time to enjoy Summer time, be it relaxing or a favourite activity. These are experiences that can provide lasting feelings and memories.
Maybe these images can help to remind you of good times and places, or perhaps help you develop ideas about would be good for you. Everyone has different concepts of what helps to have that Summer feel good experience.
Items that may enable our memory to be recalled, can be when seeing an object from that place or time, a photo of that place or a photo of that activity.
Sometimes it may just be that favourite drink that recalls that summer feeling.
A quiet beach where you can relax and be worry free.
Your photos will help reinforce that feel good memory and should be located in a convenient location for you to see at suitable times. Locations may be on your phone or a framed image on an item of furniture.

- Amusement on Long Drive
It is interesting to see what some people will do to provide amusement for themselves and fellow travellers, when driving on a long road journey. Here is an example of what can be seen at an isolated but scenic roadside stopping location, in the north west of Western Australia.
Multiple travellers have contributed a variety of items over a long period of time, set up to appear to be looking over the coastal plain which stretches away from them.
Note the way the some figures have been placed in various reclining positions while still appearing to be taking in the view. Amongst it all are messages and “quotes” to help provide further amusement.
It all makes a nice relief from the sometimes tedious long journey.
- Looking for Success
Successful people can be an excellent source of information to help others learn how to succeed.
One quote that is usually provided is that it can all start with the right idea and the conviction to stick to that idea. It can also mean changing established thinking, something which is not always easy.
Most importantly is to do something that you are good at, do what you like, and make sure you are surrounded by people who you like. These are obviously not always easily put together, but can be used as a goal in the process.
Another point that may often be provided, is that there will always be the challenges of being confronted with problems, and that they should be solved immediately. History shows that problems left unresolved, can sometimes have many unforeseen consequences.
Sometimes the journey can be a long one, and really test the resolve of those involved. So a ensure that the project is achievable, and not a pipe dream. Consulting with well informed people is always a good choice. Also ensure that those sharing the journey are with you.
Don’t be afraid to alter the path to the ultimate goal to enable adapting to a variety of changing circumstances, which can quite often happen in our changing world.
Also remember, failure is not such a bad thing, for at least you tried your best.
Success can sometimes also be regarded as enjoying the journey.
No matter what is to be regarded as success, ensure it is enjoyed, as a lack of enjoyment can lead to a lack of fulfilment which can lead to abandoning a project and is also not an indicator of success on a personal level.
- Little lifts in life
Maybe you have a pet or farm type animal, know of someone’s pet or maybe some local wildlife that help to make your day.

So next time some animal’s action gives your spirits a lift or makes you smile, remember to enjoy the moment.
These are some such moments for you to also enjoy.
- Valuable Lesson
- Unconditional Love by Dogs
There have been countless examples of unconditional love given by dogs to their human companions. Many recorded instances have been of dogs in all types of life styles and places in our world, including when the human has passed away and the dog continues to morn their passing in obvious ways, over a long period of time. The enjoyment of each other’s company with obvious displays of enjoyment by the dog, including for children a snuggle, can enhance the bond between people and dogs. Dogs can become part our family and as such help us, especially children, to learn about that important emotional connection we get with unconditional love, which can be seen in these photos.

The bond may be strongest when the dog has a role to assist the person with some aspect of their life, such as a seeing eye dog. They share many physical and emotional adventures over many years, where the dog can become part of the family and as such can become inseparable from their human companion.

Image credit: shutterstock
This close bond can enable us to become emotionally better and more stable people, which can help equip us to better cope with the many aspects of our journey through life. This especially applies to children as they experience this unconditional love.
Image credit: shutterstock
Image credit: shutterstock
Even the very young dog can display the enjoyment of the companionship of a human. Dogs willingly continue to take part in many human activities, enjoying the moment and even encouraging people to repeat or continue it. They have progressed well beyond fetching a ball and can be seen doing a wide variety of activities.

Image credit: shutterstock
A dog’s obvious display of joy when they see their human companion, is something that can lift your spirits and bring happiness to your day. The sight of a dog welcoming home their human companion, with tail wagging wildly, is certainly a treasured moment for both.
Image credit: shutterstock
Image credit: shutterstock
Sometimes we can feel that the world could do with more of this type of unconditional love, so perhaps more people should be encouraged to experience this positive bond between a pet and their human companion.
