5 Ways to Keep Track of Time
in Quarantine Shelter-in-place orders have
caused a massive disruption to daily life. For many, a loss of daily structure has led
to disorientation. If you seem to keep
forgetting what day of the week it is, you're not alone. Working from home can make it difficult
to differentiate Monday from Wednesday. During quarantine, experts recommend
creating a new routine that has a clear schedule. Here are five new routines
that can help keep you on track. 1. Plan chores for specific times
rather than simply lumping them
into the activities of the day. 2. Try a new recipe or exercise.
This can help keep you present because
you'll be extra focused at trying something new. 3. Go outside. Fresh air and sunlight
can work wonders for mood and perspective. 4. Anchor the days of the week to
specific activities or appointments,
such as a special dinner or virtual conference. 5. Reserve weekend activities,
such as watching movies or
reading for pleasure, specifically for the weekend.
