Get Creative With Your Exercises and Socialization
Just because we have to distance socially doesn’t mean you can’t find ways to socialize still. We just have to be a bit more creative and think outside the box. This idea will not only help your physical health but, most likely, your mental health as well. We can get creative by doing things “together” virtually when we can’t be together physically. When we make an effort to do things together, it gives us a feeling of being connected, which is excellent for our mental health. Encouraging each other to do exercises together virtually is an excellent motivator for everyone.

Schedule a time with your friend or family member for the walk and talk, and you can both do it simultaneously. If you can walk in the garden, you can show them what you are seeing, so it feels like you are experiencing the walk together. Alternatively, if there is a great walking path with a view of the lake – show your friend or family member what you’re seeing! A great way to incorporate exercise and socialize, especially if you both live in different areas, could experience coast to coast views.
