Don’t Beat Yourself Up for Being More Sedentary Right Now

Hi Verywell readers,

Each day, our Verywell editorial team meets (via video chat) to talk about how social distancing and COVID-19 is impacting us, our loved ones, our partners, and our families. These conversations help inform the content we create for you. Because, while everyone has different challenges and methods of coping, we are all in this together.

If you haven't been exercising as much as usual, you're not alone (I'm with you!). There's a lot going on and it's okay to take a break. Many of you have been asking for some more low impact workouts, so today we're sharing yoga poses you can do from the comfort of your chair.

Remember: it's really important to take care of your emotional health during this time. Our mental health expert offers helpful advice for how to cope with feelings of loneliness and anxiety, including dozens of ideas for things you can do at home (other than exercise).

Finally, we've created a dedicated section: Staying Healthy at Home During Coronavirus which you can bookmark for all our latest and relevant content written by credible health experts. And as always, don't hesitate to let us know if there's anything you'd like to see more of from us.

Talk soon,
