During this period of self-isolation, amid the coronavirus outbreak, people are finding it hard to workout without going to the gym.
A lot of fitness bloggers and personal trainers have chipped in to help their followers benefit from home workouts, that give you just as much of a productive morning/evening as a gym session.
Four Happy News Stories That Have Nothing To Do With Coronavirus
Speaking exclusively to the Director of Healthcare Partnerships at Headspace, Sarah Romotsky, she told us the best way to incorporate a zen lifestyle whilst being in isolation, saying: "When working from home, especially during the current time of social distancing, it’s normal to experience anxiety, melancholy, and overwhelming feelings of isolation.
"To break up the time of being stuck inside and getting into a working-from-home routine, keep your mind and body fresh with a daily mindful walk in the garden. A walk is the perfect occasion to exercise both the mind and the body and is a great way to bring mindfulness to this everyday pursuit."
Sarah continued: "Try meditating whilst on the move by focusing your attention on the environment around you, taking in all the sights and sounds. This can help you step away, reset and refresh the mind, appreciate the surroundings, and tune into the rhythm of the body.
"Headspace offers mindful walking exercises to help you be present in the moment, preventing your mind of distraction from stressful and unwanted thoughts."
