Grace & Abby take you through their 5 top tips to keep your mental health in check during this difficult isolation period - press play for some serious inspiration to get you back to feeling like your best self!
Routine
- Establishing a routine for yourself now your usual one has been temporarily put on hold
- Plan the night before what you want to accomplish the next day, start small with goals such as what time you are going to wake up and work up to bigger goals
- Write it down, use a notepad, whiteboard or your notes app on your phone and make sure you cross off each item as you accomplish it - this is great for boosting your self esteem and motivation!
Exercise
- Get your body moving everyday
- Do what feels right! Feeling anxious? Do yoga. Feeling energised? Do HIIT. Feeling stagnant? Do some dancing.
- Give yourself something to focus on and work towards by setting yourself training goals and try something new.
Meditation
- Racing thoughts? Take yourself to the mind gym and try a meditation practice and feel the life changing benefits

Connection
