Read

Reading keeps the mind occupied. In fact, depending on what you are reading, it could be therapeutic. There zillions of materials to read online ranging from books, magazines, newspapers and many more. You could get that novel you have been yearning to read.

When you read you get inspiration to write. This is good for the creative lot. If you have a way with with words you would decide to write short stories, or you could spend more time on your blog like me, or you could start crafting that novel you had thought about.

If you open YouTube or rather google, you will get hundreds of resources to help you exercise while confined in your home. Exercise can range from lofting small weights in your house balcony to pushups in your own leaving room
