Many people around me I see are quite bored of the lockdown but they are not realizing how lucky we are. Yes, we are lucky to have a roof over our heads and food in our refrigerators every day. At least we don’t have to wander here and there in search of shelter and food like the daily wage earners. We need to soon realize this and start using this time for the good.
This quarantine time will not come back and hence we need to make the best use of it. We can use this time to improve our productivity and also maintain our calm at the same time. Therefore, I have listed some of the best creative activities which you can do during the lockdown period.
Shoutout to the Bookworm in You
To be very honest, but this is a no-brainer for sure. It can be the perfect use of personal time apart from being a great entertainer because you will get a chance to improve your awareness of the environment, literature, and culture. The study also found that reading books will make you more intelligent and compassionate. Maybe the key to getting through these times is hidden in one of those books on your shelves.
Sculpt your Body
For making fitness a part of your life, you need to make sure that you do exercise for 3 weeks. While this has been disproved, the health experts would be vouching for the fact that in this timeframe you will see the benefits of workout and exercise. If you’ve been talking about getting fitter, take up Yoga or Pilates, or enter a practical home exercise class. At around this time, several yoga and workout trainers give online courses. You can follow them on their social media profiles to find the best choice.
Let your Vocal Cords get Trained
Is the guitar which you purchased a couple of years ago, collecting dust in your cupboard? Then this is the right time to dust it off. Make a conscious effort to sit up and practice your notes by practicing regularly. There are hundreds of tutorials on YouTube which you can download. Learn to dance, or karaoke. Take your inner Lata Di out.
Renovate your house
Are you bored of seeing the same plans for seating/dining in your house? This might be a perfect time to reorganize the decor and add a fresh look to your house. This is possible since it is locked down and you surely do not have much work to do. You can try new combinations, switch the curtains, shift your tables, benches, and sofas around the room. This exercise will also help you lose a good amount of calories, and could help you get rid of loads of unwanted stuff.
Sew your Torn Clothes
Were you planning for a long time to stitch the hole in your favorite coat? Do you need to add a patch on the back of your dress? Then now is the right time to pick up a needle, thread and then get back to the sewing. You can add new life into the cloth with your excellent sewing skills and that too within a few minutes. Wake the inner designer in you design some kurtas or tops for yourself.
Become a Green Thumb in Gardening
Tired of sitting indoors the entire day? Then go out and turn your garden into a peaceful space so that you can move to get some very amazing outdoors. If you are looking for some gardening inspiration, then you can surely go and watch some YouTube videos for sure.
Start a Blog
Creating a blog will never get you wrong for sure. It is indeed the right time to get that creativity of yours along, whether you’re using this as an online writing portfolio or a place to express your interests to try something new.
These are the few things which you can try during the lockdown and we bet these are going to help you for sure. So, spend your time in the best way possible with these creative yet fun ideas.
