According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it is mandatory to observe social distancing to minimize the spread of influenza. However, this doesn’t mean you have to be emotionally distant from your loved ones. The best way to lighten the situation is through better communication. Turn off your mobile devices and spend time with your family over dinner, movies, or even a little catching up. Sometimes, we tend to normalize being busy without knowing you may be missing essential events already. Amid the outbreak, take this moment to spend more time with your family.

Keep in Touch

Being busy with work or school always has its disadvantages—being distant. If you have been socially far off from your relationships, it doesn’t hurt to show that you still care. Even through virtual communication, send them well wishes and safety. As technology has been much accessible, keep in touch with your friends and family through chats, phone, and video calls. We do not need another outbreak to rebuild relationships. Take this self-isolation as an opportunity to forgive, resolve issues, and rebuild broken connections.
