Topic Self Care/Coping Methods/ finding something to do Package
hey, guys so why this topic well this is even more important with the current situation so let's dive in shall we. ill make 3 lists even though all 3 might overlap if you find when you do self care its also something to do and coping method for you.

game
art

exercise
sorting through what you no longer play with use anymore into boxes ready to donate/sell etc when lockdown ends to make space for new that you might use more
you see being on lockdown doesn't need to feel boring like your trapped I've been in isolation 2 years doing it for the length your country asks of you is nothing to being in it for years and I'm fine, not bored I've just been creative about it and kept myself occupied you'll find time flies by when your not watching the clock. I urge you to follow your country's rules it is hard I know however not for long I hope and is necessary we will get through this together not just as a country but a world were all going through the same thing we have each other here. the 3 lists are things I would most likely turn too just examples though.
Check-In Questions
1. how are you today
2.how important do you feel this package is
3. what is going well/not going well for you
4. what would be in your packages
of course, this topic is optional if you do not wish to do it that's fine you can just do a regular Check-In say how you are, maybe get a hug or just sit with us that's fine too

1. how are you today
I'm doing very well! Thank you for asking.
2.how important do you feel this package is
Very important. I try to always have a package like this around so that I can open it when I'm starting to run out of energy.

My drawing has improved a lot lately, my language learning is going well, and I've gotten a lot of really great support here on 7 cups. Especially the latter makes me really happy :)
4. what would be in your packages
I my packages there would be: Sleep, eating well, watching my favorite cartoons, drawing, learning/practicing languages, giving support here on 7 cups, and cleaning the house.
