COVID REJUVENATE

Hello, people in lockdown! Yes, I know that Covid-19 is outside, and that is worrisome. But you will worry less
when I give you tips to have your own COVID rejuvenation inside. Don't tell me you are feeling bored in your
home. Come on! You are in your own homes. It implies that you have the opportunity to engage with your inner
selves. It is the right time to work on yourself and to work on your body. And yes, I am talking about fitness, which
so many people have forgotten. But this is the time everyone! Please wake up!!Just because you are at home
doesn’t mean that all your movements are restricted and you cannot exercise. You need to set up definite
fitness goals in your mind and allot two hours per day. Let me share some motivating details that will make
you stand up and take active efforts to rejuvenate your mind and body. In today's time, everyone
prefers to use the internet and their phones for accessing information. If you are using your phone

interesting forms of dance. These helpful videos are available for free on the internet. It is on
you to take advantage of these gifts. So start small, try it for 15 minutes per day, and then see
yourself get engaged more in it. By the time this lockdown ends and people resume their
normal routines, I hope that you would have gained an additional skill that also helped
you achieve your peace of mind. The only thing is what advantages you choose to
take. So make it your goal to practice a new skill for two hours a day and do it till Through
