Whether it\u2019s loss of a job, loss of loved ones, or loss of normal routine and face time with others, each of us have experienced some degree of stress and anxiety due to the current events. However, if you have the luxury of living on the lake, being surrounded by nature has powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/articles-and-news\/lake-living-is-healthy-living\">mental health benefits<\/a>. When the view out your window is a peaceful overlook of water and wildlife, the calming environment will lower your cortisol levels. But if you aren\u2019t on a lake right now, no need to worry. There are still plenty of ways to manage your stress and anxiety during COVID-19 from the comfort of your home. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Download a Meditation App<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/meditation-app-thewirecutter.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/meditation-app-thewirecutter.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/meditation-app-thewirecutter-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/meditation-app-thewirecutter-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/thewirecutter.com\/reviews\/best-meditation-apps\/\">thewirecutter.com<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to modern technology, practicing meditation is easier than ever.

With the whole globe in crisis, it\u2019s understandable that our brains are jumbled as well. That\u2019s why mental health experts have been advising us to keep a routine as much as possible, even when it\u2019s challenging to focus on ordinary tasks. This practice paves the way for a clearer mind and a more focused day. Whether you keep a list on your fridge of specific tasks for the day, set an iPhone alarm for bedtime, or recreate your daily public transit commute in your shower like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2020\/04\/01\/londoners-recreating-tube-experience-shower-coz-miss-commuting-12490324\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">these Londoners<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, setting a routine for yourself is beneficial. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Establish a Sleep Schedule<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/rayia-soderberg-raWDbjIvXWc-unsplash-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12672\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/rayia-soderberg-raWDbjIvXWc-unsplash-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/rayia-soderberg-raWDbjIvXWc-unsplash-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/rayia-soderberg-raWDbjIvXWc-unsplash-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/rayia-soderberg-raWDbjIvXWc-unsplash-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/rayia-soderberg-raWDbjIvXWc-unsplash-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/rayia-soderberg-raWDbjIvXWc-unsplash-320x240.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have trouble sleeping, you\u2019re not the only one. According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/\">National Institutes of Health<\/a>, over 40 million Americans experience chronic sleeping problems. During <a href=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/articles-and-news\/covid-19-and-lake-real-estate-difficult-times-require-dependable-partners\">COVID-19<\/a>, sleep might be an even greater challenge due to the reciprocal relationship between <a href=\"https:\/\/adaa.org\/understanding-anxiety\/related-illnesses\/sleep-disorders\">anxiety<\/a> and sleep. In a vicious cycle, anxiety fuels insomnia, and insomnia leads to more anxiety. However, practicing good sleep hygiene is one of the most underrated &#8212; but also most important &#8212; aspects of maintaining physical and mental health. And there are ways you can practice better sleeping habits. For example, although our phones are our lifelines to outside connection right now, it\u2019s helpful to go screen-free just before bedtime. Be sure to also practice <a href=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/articles-and-news\/lake-exercising\">exercise<\/a> habits, get as much exposure to sunlight as possible, and create a pleasant sleeping environment to increase your sleep quality. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Practice Cooking Skills<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/katie-smith-uQs1802D0CQ-unsplash-144x144.jpg 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, the days of enjoying a leisurely Saturday brunch have been temporarily paused.

If you\u2019ve found yourself repeatedly texting friends about the pandemic, spending hours reading or watching news, and finding it impossible to discuss topics unrelated to the virus, you might be suffering from it. Instead of inundating your mind with news constantly, it\u2019s important to strike a balance of staying informed but not overly stressed. Be sure to take time to unplug from the news and connect with others, go for daily walks, or <a href=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/articles-and-news\/try-a-new-hobby-paint-your-lake\">practice a new hobby<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/\">live on the lake<\/a>, chances are you have a built-in stress-free environment&#8211; but even then, anxious thoughts have a way of creeping in.
