Day 1 - End Of Days ?

The entire world is waging a war against a common enemy - CoronoVirus, also called as Covid19. India is on a 21 day lockdown from today, so I decided to start with my writing again and keep my mind occupied with things and also help people get into the habit of reading during these tough times. After all the mind can get scrambled with isolation.

I was chatting with my cousin on Instagram and she was telling me how she was afraid of what was going. “I always get this thought if it’s really happening or is it all a dream. It’s almost as if it was the exact copy of a Hollywood movie” was my answer. “Did you imagine the world to end?” She asks to which I do not respond. Well that’s how devastating the disease is spreading. 

I was reading an article online which mentioned about how Astronauts were spending their time in Space. Some of them were really funny like binge watching Game of Thrones twice over. Twice really ? What caught my attention was how they had a routine of their day. It’s very important during times like this to be sane, patient and look after each other. It does not matter whether you are rich, poor, whether you have good looks, whether you are a superstar or anything of that sort. Having your mind in control is the need.

Here’s how I am keeping myself busy through the day

• Morning - Dance Fitness with Cult Live session, Sweep my house, do the chores, water the plants in my green house.
• Noon - Read newspaper, watch some news, read a book.
• Evening - Do a HRX workout with Cult Live Session, read a book.
• Night - Eat dinner with family together, watch movie for sometime and watch world news.

Keeping yourself busy and engaged with things can be a game changer in terms of mental wellness. It’s important to spend time with family, to bond and share the responsibility of managing the house and looking after each other. The best thing you can follow at this point of time -

• Stay at home
• Go out only to bring essential food if you are running low on ration.
• Report fake news and avoid spreading content which are not authentic.
• Have a routine, else your mind will start playing with you.
• Mind, Body and Soul Fitness - Read, Exercise and Meditate.

Here’s something to cheer you up. This photo was clicked by my friend at his residence today. 

Nature can be a healer with it’s beauty, let’s start loving and embracing it. It so happened I was talking to my dad today and told him in a matter of days we will have the sparrows back and in a few weeks the peacocks will come. What a sight that will be. 

I will see you all occupied with a blog everyday sharing positive things and stories to keep you sane. After all we have one planet, one life to save. Let’s SPREAD LOVE NOT GERMS

For the next few weeks this will be our routine, will it be the END OF DAYS ?

See you tomorrow :)
