#5 Grow Plants

This may sound sound boring or mundane to some but hear us out! When you start growing something, you develop a sense of responsibility towards it. Right from the moment you plant the seeds to watering it every day and finally watching the first shoot make its way out of the mud. Since you have to stay home, you have a little extra time on hands to tend to these plants. There is no denying that you will feel very happy when your plants start growing and eventually bear flowers and fruits.

#6 Talk to Friends

So, what if you cannot spend time with your friends in person? Stay connected with them with messages, phone calls and video chats so that you feel less lonely and happier. Most importantly, socialise with those people who maintain a sense of positiveness and around who you can just be yourself and feel at ease. Coronavirus lockdown is difficult for all of us so let’s just try to be with those help uplift our energy and spirit.
