Who knows how long this quarantine will last. Some days I enjoy the downtime and others I find myself climbing the walls. But being stuck at home doesn’t mean we have to be bored. If filling your time with Netflix and beer is getting old (as it has for me) consider trying something new to relieve yourself of the quarantine boredom:
- meditate
- start a new exercise regimen
- learn a new language
- check out one of the many tutorials on YouTube to learn a new skill
- start a garden
- write in your journal
- take on a new art project
- set up a home spa for yourself
- learn a new recipe
- practice yoga
- take a course online
- read a book
- bake bread or cookies or whatever you like
- work on a large puzzle
- listen to a podcast
- clean your house
- go for a walk
- do some yard work
- spend some time in nature
- have a bonfire
- connect with friends virtually through Facebook or House Party
- play a board game
- make a list of goals and resolutions
- learn about a new culture
- dance in your living room
- color an adult coloring book
- repair that broken item you’ve been putting off
- learn how to dance
- go through old photo albums
- take a virtual trip to a museum or other place
Don’t let the boredom get the best of you!
