What To do During Self Isolation

We all in the same boat. We won't forget 2020 easily.

As a musician, I struggle sometimes during my days thinking about music future and how hard I have been working and as for me many others towards my dream job and my passion.


I am using the self-isolation time to reconnect with my instrument. During 2020 I was losing the enthusiasm to play music, I was not connecting with my family and friends remotely but I pushed myself harder to keep a routine and beauty routine as well.

Some more then others are struggling financially, I have been affected as well in the beginning, then I found my solution to this problem, I discovered other interests and from them now I am restarting.


Tips For Self Isolation:

  • Wake up usual time to go work or school

  • Having Breakfast and shower

  • Reading News

  • Checking my Day Plan and Emails

  • Up to lunchtime learning a new skill

  • Lunch - During lockdown or self-isolation, I did miss much lunch because too busy to finish a task and overwhelmed with information.

  • After lunch Online harp lessons and working for the company

  • Work out - I like yoga, Pilates, and stretching, my favorite free app is #FitOn, there are scheduled classes but you can do them whenever you got the free time.

  • Relax time as playing the harp, calling family and friends, coloring, knitting, reading books, or cooking

  • Dinner and movies or chilling with my flatmates - I am lucky to share my flat with the other two girls from my same hometown and we are a small family in the UK.

Most important let's keep positive thoughts and be grateful every day for what we have and what we are.

I would like to recommend as well listening to music during the day, I listen to different playlists from #youtube or #spotify from meditative to classical music, jazz, RnB. I also write a personal notebook about my feelings, achievements it helps to take away any negative thoughts or worries.


Some of my favorite playlists from Spotify:
