  • I know the feeling... to be honest I'm not surprised we are going into another lockdown - it should of happened earlier but oh well. 

    Talking to this community can help you- we are here for each other. if you can talk to your family through phone, text, or video call that can help. also check out Mind.co.uk - there a great charity that have lots of ways to help cope through these times. 

    When exercising, try alternative exercise: walking/running, exercise videos on YouTube - yoga/Pilates. See if your gym have a Facebook page where they upload exercise classes - mine do and people have been very impressed. If they don't, send an email to ask them to consider it. 

    Or do you have an Xbox/Wii/PlayStation at home? see if they can exercise games, like Just Dance. Its brilliant! 

    Or try the NHS website and look for the Live Well section - they have exercise guides on there. 

    For staying calm, look at Mind.co.uk, Live Well website, Every Mind Matters website and the GOV.UK section on mental wellbeing for COVID-19. Also, try a few calm mental wellbeing apps - like Calm and Headspace. 

    Hope this helps - remember your not alone xxx
