Our country is experiencing a new wave of COVID-19 cases, perhaps due to more mobility by school attendance, eating out with family/friends, attending public events and cooler temperatures.
While we are all getting weary and restless with the confinement, it is important to stay the course and not be an ostrich. Our ancestors endured many hardships that most of us cannot even fathom-try watching “Hell On Wheels” on Netflix and you will get a glimpse of life on the prairie.
Let’s all stay the course and commit to taking care of one another by, helping one another to keep hopeful during these trying times. Call, text or email family, friends and neighbors - tell them you are thinking of them, miss them and do they need anything. Make an effort to helping others stay mentally healthy and you will be healthier too.
Press onward by remembering these healthy steps:
1. Wash your hands with antibacterial soap for 20 seconds
2. Wear a face mask when in public
3. Stay home if you aren’t feeling well
4. Eat lots of fruit high in vitamin C-oranges, grapefruit, sweet red bell pepper, strawberries, kiwi and kale.
5. Eat foods high in beta-carotene- carrots, spinach or sweet potatoes.
6. Eat foods rich in vitamin E - nuts, seeds and avocados.
7. Eat foods high in vitamin D - tuna, egg yolks, milk and yogurt.
8. Drink lots of Green Tea that is full of antioxidants
.9. Exercise-walking and yoga help your immune system.
10. Meditate - focus on all the blessings in your life.
