In a time of uncertainty, I've outlined a schedule for myself to maintain some sort of normalcy and to keep me from eating all the quarantine snacks.
Wake up
I lay in bed for 2 minutes and NOT grab my phone. Anxiety coach Trish Barillas recommends allowing the body to catch up and avoid screens as soon as you wake up.

Stretch + Ground + Meditate + Journal
Insight timer course (currently I'm doing this one on self acceptance) or Deepak Chopra's 21 Day's Abundance Challenge
Exercise
Pelton app is free for 90 days and has some great classes. Lululemon or Barry's have free classes on the IG.
*Healthy Breakfast*
I've been making super easy breakfasts, chia pudding with fruit and granola. Avocado toasts and soft boiled egg.
Work
Thankfully I have some projects that are still in play but like everyone else and as a freelancer, a lot of projects were put on hold or canceled. I'm running with this force pause and taking a time out to explore creative projects I've been meaning to do.
