Healthy Tips from the Campbell University Health Center

Staying healthy is more important than ever during this challenging time. Changes in routine, working from home and increased stress levels may make it a real challenge to maintain a healthy mind, body and spirit. Here are a few tips to make your time at home healthier:

• Try to maintain structure in your day, even if itis a new normal

• Get up and get dressed every day

• Create a daily task list of what you would like to accomplish

• Spend some time outside everyday if possible

• Set aside some time for daily prayer or meditation; Try relaxation apps such as Calm, Headspace, or YouTube meditation videos

• Do deep breathing exercises to help with relaxation

• Aim to schedule time for physical activity daily; Take a walk, ride a bike,or try the 7 Minute Workout Series on YouTube

• Make healthy food choices that will boost your immune system

• Show kindness to others by reaching out to elderly or sick neighbors or friends.

• Limit screen time, especially news reports

Start a project you have been putting off for awhile

Do puzzles, crafts, card games, and other fun activities

Drink plenty of water- Aim to drink about ½ your body weightin ounces daily
