Health advocates recommend the following for optimal mental and physical health:

• Maintain a healthy diet and eat regularly
• Set up a schedule for yourself and aim to accomplish a couple of goals each day
• Get enough and try to maintain a sleep schedule
• Exercise!! This doesn't have to be hardcore; just be active:
• stretch several times each day,
• use  your own bodyweight or books/household objects for strength training
• go for a walk or jog** using social distancing guidelines
