In the current climate with the dangers of COVID-19 becoming quite real, people are advised to practice social distancing in order to stop the disease’s spread. Social distancing involves keeping a distance of six feet or more from other people. This is particularly important for seniors who are at the highest risk of experiencing severe illness due to the virus. If you are an older adult, it may be wisest for you to stay in and immediately around your home. With such a spatial restriction, though, what can you do to maintain your mental and physical wellness?

United States President Donald Trump says a surge in the COVID-19 coronavirus is coming, and that the next two weeks will be difficult.

The world is in the grips of a pandemic right now, and COVID-19, aka coronavirus, is spreading. It’s quickly reached the level of pandemic, affecting multiple countries around the world. In an attempt to keep the virus from spreading, governments are suggesting that people shelter in place and practice social distancing. This means staying home unless you are having a medical emergency, working from home if you can, and avoiding contact with others. Being at home, however, doesn’t have to be awful. Take advantage of the time and spend it with your family and make the best of this time.
