Fun Self Care Things To Do During Quarantine

During these really hard times, it’s easy to complain and think about lost time and opportunities to do fun things since we’ve all been quarantined. But if you change your outlook and think about the benefits of staying home and having more time on your hands, then this all doesn’t seem quite so bad! I put together this list of 30 fun things to do during quarantine to help you pass the time in a productive but still fun way.

This time to ourselves is a chance to realign with our purpose in life and to think about what we all really want to do and contribute while we’re on this earth.

So remember that although this time is definitely difficult, there’s always another way to look at things from a positive perspective. Use this time to catch up on anything you’ve been putting off and you’re going to come out on the other end of this so happy, healthy and set up for success!

Check out these 30+ fun things to do during quarantine below:

 

Personal

  • Treat yourself and support a local business that might be struggling by ordering a meal in! I always order plant based food from my favorite vegan restaurants. You can download Uber Eats and use my code “eats-bgmug” for a discount on your first order

  • Watch a few episodes (or a whole season!) of your favorite show

  • Do a puzzle! There are so many cute ones you can order online from Amazon. Click here to check out the cutest New York City puzzle I’ve been doing for the past week to pass time

  • Have a movie marathon! I always love watching as many Harry Potter movies as I can in a day during times like this

  • Dig into your beauty drawer and start using a product or two that you bought recently but have been waiting to try

  • Look through my ways to glow up during social distancing to improve your skin, health, and wellness

  • Do some cooking or baking and try a new recipe! There are tons of delicious and healthy plant based recipes on Pinterest for everything under the sun

  • Make a TikTok, since everyone else is on it!

  • Design a gallery wall in your living room or office with some cute prints or paintings

  • Make a vision board

  • Read a new book

  • Find cute new accounts to follow on Instagram – if you like beige/neutral themes then click here to check out my account!

 

Health & Wellness

  • Learn how to meditate

  • Look for a new workout to try on YouTube

  • Set an intention for yourself for this year. It could be a goal of yours, something you want to improve about yourself, etc

  • Incorporate one healthy vegan meal per day – you can increase your energy levels and immune system health by eating a meal heavy in green veggies and whole grains

  • Do some stretching each morning to loosen up your muscles and relieve stress and tension

 

Business

  • Take a free class online from an Ivy League school

  • Start a new side hustle

  • Learn a new skill through YouTube or Skillshare

  • Redecorate or reorganize your home office space

  • Find a role model or someone you can look up to online who has succeeded in your same career path

  • Find a fun new motivating podcast to listen to

 

Outdoors

  • Go for a walk in a different part of town that you haven’t explored much of (while still practicing social distancing)

  • Sit outside and listen to a podcast or some music

  • Try taking some nice pictures on your phone of flowers or landscapes in your neighborhood

  • Play with your dog if you have one – they are so excited to spend more time with you

  • If you have these in your area, go for a hike on a trail

 

Family & Friends

  • FaceTime one family member and one friend per day if you can

  • Plan a trip with a friend or group of friends for when this is all over

  • Try doing an Instagram live with a friend!

  • Work on a project with a friend using a Pinterest group board or Trello board

  • Call someone you haven’t talked to in a while

    Lol, let’s just say I’m on the right track considering I’ve pretty much done half of your suggestions under the personal category 😂. These are really great suggestions doll. The ubereats app has saved me while my sink has been broken as we haven’t been able to cook/wash anything. Thanks for sharing, and stay safe!!

    I’ve been baking lots and going for walks with my camera. I think with this social distancing thing we just have to think differently with how we spend our time.

    These are awesome ideas!! We started a puzzle on day 3!! It took a few days to get into it but it wasn’t long until the whole family was addicted to finishing it. Online classes are another great way to pass the time. Thanks for the link!! Hope you have a terrific weekend!

    Such a great post! I love that you included many categories on it. I do a lot of meditation, reading and walking in nature these days, and also playing at home with my son 🙂
    Hope you and your family are safe.
