- If you can’t concentrate at home, go to the library to study.
- Put YouTube/streaming service/podcast on while you wash up the dishes if you don’t want to wash up.
- N95 masks prevent pollen and stuff.
- Listening to podcasts while you drive might be making you tired. If you are worn out after a > 30-minute drive, try not listening to a podcast.
- If you want to read, go to a park nearby to prevent distractions. (Related to the first one I know, but mindset is important.)
- Wear sunscreen.
- Get your skin checked.
- For that matter, go to the dentist and GP for check-ups. You may be able to try teaching dentists too, it may be cheaper.
- Make chores bearable by putting on YouTube or podcasts.
- Or be mindful of the joy that a clean house can bring!
- If you’re tired, try to actually go to bed and sleep, rather than pushing through until you’re really tired.
- If you can’t sleep, maybe it’s too hot or you are unknowingly thirsty. Try to fix those so your body knows it’s OK to sleep.
- Drink water! If you find it boring, add lemon juice, or a bit of iced tea, or cucumber slices, stuff like that to make it more interesting.
- Make an emergency snack box that you can grab and go in a hurry with some non-perishable snacks in case you have to go out suddenly.
- Leave water and a change of clothes in the car, you might need to wash something or change out of dirty or wet clothes.
