5 Amazing Benefits of lockdown

Lockdown has affected our lives in many ways. Some are striving hard to survive while others have committed themselves to selfless service to mankind.

But if you are not any of these, you must be killing your time by criticising the situation you have landed in. That's not your fault,its the fault of your mind that has been conditioned like this since childhood.We always think that if the current circumstances are not favourable to us we are supposed to complain. We find out many reasons to curse the systems, to fill the mind with negativity and share this negativity with others also.

But have you given a thought to see the other side of  the coin! Don't you think this lockdown has given us opportunity to reflect on our lives, those lives which were bound by dates and time all day long.

Don't just sit like a victim of lockdown.  Open your mind to think what we can learn from this lockdown. Here are five amazing benefits that this lockdown offers to you.

• Know yourself better - This is the best time to reinvent yourself. All those activities which used to occur only in mind can now manifest.You can improve yourself physically,mentally and spiritually. You can work upon on your weaknesses,you can strengthen your mental ability. Learn to meditate.Read a book. Do some exercise or yoga or any other kind of physical activity which you prefer. 

• Family time - When was the last time you actually enjoyed the meal time with complete family? Some of you might not even remember this. But the fact is that it is the best time to sit together with your family and enjoy meals or play with your kids. Spend some quality time with your family.

• Changed perspective to see life - Life has slowed down.Now everything seems changed, be it our lifestyle,our eating habits, our daily routine, almost everything. It is the time to  give proper attention to every little aspect of life.

• Nature at its best - Nature has hit the reset button after lockdown. There is silence everywhere. Sky is clear, air pollution has dipped, noise pollution has reduced, rivers are much cleaner now.These days so many species of animals and birds can be seen roaming freely. May be they have come out to see if everything is OK with humanity!                                                 

• Fresh start for everything - This lockdown has surely taught us that everything is temporary.We will have to restart our lives from a scratch.So this is the time to prepare yourself to start everything afresh.

                                          

    

Let's not just sit idle and lose this opportunity that we have been provided.This time will never come again. Gain some new experiences. Follow healthy and hygienic practices. Find out what you truly love.Give a prayer of thanks for what you have. Let's stay positive and contribute to make the world a better place to live in.
