STAYING HEALTHY AT HOME
During these uncertain times, stress and anxiety can increase and make a difficult time even harder. We are spending more time at home, out of our routines and away from friends and family. Some people may have a lot of free time and are not sure what to do with it. What we do in our free time has an impact on how we feel. Having healthy and fun things to do makes us happier and allows us to deal with stress in a positive way.
