2.) Exercise Equipment

Ever since all the gyms closed down, and social distancing became more enforced, exercise options seemed to drastically decrease. However, exercising at home is a good alternative to the exercise dilemma, will help keep you in shape, and will also give you another way to pass the time.Ward off those quarantine pounds by investing in some equipment, and it doesn’t have to break the bank! Try a set of dumbbells, a yoga mat for floor exercises, a medicine ball for aerobic, or resistance bands for muscle toning.

After a long day of working from home, it might be difficult to transition to an environment more at ease. Bring the spa to your home with a few scented candles. Lighting some scented candles after work will help your mind adjust into a more relaxed space, and will immediately transform your home into a cozy and tranquil space.

6.) Skincare products

Quarantine might mean wearing less-makeup, but it definitely does not mean you should neglect your skin too. Having a good skincare routine down is an important part to maintaining skin health for the long-term. Your routine does not have to be expensive or extensive, just enough to provide your skin type  with its basic needs and nourishment. There are plenty of products available out there. And the best part is that once quarantine is over, all the TLC you skin received will show its pay-off!

During stressful times, maintaining good nutritious habits is key. Especially during this time, when your immune system might have to kick in. An easy way to maintain your health and support your immune system is to make sure your pantry is stocked with lots of healthy and nutritious foods. Avoid giving into the temptation of choosing the comfort and convenience of processed or sugary foods and instead take the time to choose foods that will provide a balanced diet, such as foods that are rich in protein, fiber, vitamins and antioxidants. Eating well will help strengthen both body and mind.

16.) Over-the-counter medicines (just in case)

Stocking up your at-home medicine cabinet now means that you will be prepared for any mild ailments that might occur during quarantine. Consider keeping painkillers, cough drops and Tums or Pepto-Bismol stored away, just in case a need for them arises.

A simple but great option for those with long working hours in front of the computer. A good cushion will help you maintain comfort and good posture while you work.
