Isolation: How Do We Handle it?

I am struggling at home with not having the same level of work duties to occupy my time, and video gets tiring after a while. Still, I wake up at the same hour, make my bed and get dressed as if for work, report to "work" online when I'm expected to be there -- routines are important. I try to get outside at least once a day for fresh air.

Guener, I appreciate your post because I also find that dressing "for work" each day has really improved my morale. Even as self-quarantining for the past 30 days has meant that some days, because of inclement weather, I've not left my home.

There is truly something strengthening about acting "as if" in preparation for the day. I've also encouraged my daughter and family to dress once per week as though they are going out for dinner and then planning a special at home meal to share only "uplifting conversations". Somebody has to do an extra chore if they veer into negativity....just a suggestions...best to all!
