We all know how beneficial laughter is to our bodies and states of mind. However, it’s not the only way to protect your mental health. Especially if you’re staying at home and distancing yourself socially.

Bored Panda reached out to Mind, a UK mental health charity, to learn more about staying mentally fit during the coronavirus lockdowns we’re seeing around the globe.

Stephen Buckley, the Head of Information at Mind, explained that media coverage may increase people’s concern about the coronavirus, therefore, you should think about “taking a break or limiting how much you read or watch is helpful to maintain your well-being during this time.”

Most of us are guilty of following every tiny update about the coronavirus pandemic. But it’s far from healthy. It leads to anxiety. It leads to low-key panic. It leaves us mentally and emotionally drained. Though it’s important to stay informed, try to limit the amount of time you spend reading the news, especially stories about the ‘Coronapocalypse.’ Also, try to stick to reputable news sources so you don’t get worried over misinformation.

Staying mentally fit also means reducing the amount of time you spend scrolling through social media. After all, nearly everyone’s writing and posting about the coronavirus at the moment. You deserve a break from all of that. The good news is that sites like Twitter offer you the ability to mute certain keywords, to follow or mute accounts that might be making you anxious. So use those tools to filter your social media feed and go for wholesome news stories.

According to Buckley, some people might find that staying at home alone might not be ideal. “So try to think of alternatives, for example staying with a friend or family member. You can also keep up to date with the current government health advice about whether you need to self-isolate.”

If you’re self-isolating, first of all, congratulations on making a smart decision. Well done. Unfortunately, quarantining yourself might be a bit, well, lonely. So keep connected to the people you care about by phoning, messaging, and emailing them regularly. We’re social animals, after all. Take away the social aspect and what are we left with?

Yep. Tech and video conferencing - who actually needs offices really? Very few jobs need to be held in buildings where you are all penned together these days.

Finally, remember the basics. Eat well, drink plenty of water, exercise regularly. Read a good book, maybe practice meditating as well. If anything, this crisis is the perfect opportunity to reexamine your priorities (and maybe even start a new hobby!). Above all, remember to laugh and smile a lot. Having a good sense of humor is going to help immensely in the months to come.

“Our physical and mental health are linked, so make sure you are eating regularly and drinking enough water,” Buckley explained. “Think about getting food delivered or asking someone else to drop food off for you. Being at home might impact your routine which can affect your appetite and when you drink water. It can help to create a new routine to make sure you are looking after yourself.”

Buckley stressed the importance of staying active and keeping your mind stimulated. “Keep your brain occupied and challenged. Set aside time in your routine for this. Read books, magazines and articles. Listen to podcasts, watch films and do puzzles.”

Yep, sorry anti-vaxxers. Though to be honest I'd give you a pass and let you have the vaccine (if you wanted it) because it would help OTHERS be safe.

And the tape needs to go all the way around their head, otherwise they can just lick it off.

Wouldn't they be gaming and not in anyone's way if left to their own devices anyway?

You would be surprised at how much energy intelligent, healthy, energetic children can generate when cooped up inside the house. Most kids don't spend all their time gaming and even gaming can be quite loud and disruptive.

This is sooo relatable! I work from home... having others 'forcibly' staying at home is a recipe for madness or murder!

I once sat on my brother as I read a book. When we wore himself out by struggling, I left him sleeping on the floor. Mom wasn't happy, but I was proud of myself. That was deserved for he stole my chapstick for the last time as a result. I'm glad no one has shown similar pics with their pet tied up.

She seriously needs a lower chair and desk. Her back will be killing her sitting with legs dangling for more than 4 hours.

This is so funny and the boys know it . After the picture was taken by ? the boys just put their hands up to their face and offed the tape then loosened the cloth on one wrist and freed both hands and then their feet. Mom then laughed and told them they can go back to their video games and then she slipped off her heals and bra.

Nah - stopped believing a long time ago that the world knows it's in a new year and that it magically resets.
