Try Meditation
If you feel like things are monotonous, it may be time to try something calming for the mind. The app Headspace is offering free “Weathering the Storm” meditations and exercises that are as short as 1-10 minutes. Titles like “Stressed,” “Walking at Home” and “Focus” are perfect for coping with quarantine. They’ve even added a special section for New Yorkers. Headspace also has a 7 day trial for their non-Covid related meditations and exercises.
Get Exercise
We’ve all been visiting the kitchen more frequently these days. We’re also working, and pretty much everything else, from home. Gyms are closed, but even getting outside for a walk (with a mask) can help you de-stress. You can also find a local fitness studio on social media to see if they’re posting classes online. LXR Yoga, in Costa Mesa, has a YouTube channel with free yoga and meditation classes. Trim Fitness Studio, at The CAMP, started Trim at Home, 45 minute Lagree-inspired Zoom classes.
Find a way to move, even for a few minutes, to keep the stir crazy at bay, you could also try with vitamins, minerals, we suggest you to give it a try to the Rootine products.
Have Fun
Doing everything from home often means lines get blurred. You might be working longer hours, spending the day in your pajamas (no judgement) or filling multiple roles in your household. We recommend finding something that’s fun for you and schedule it into your calendar. Spending 20 or 30 minutes doing something fun for yourself can actually help you be more productive in other areas of your stay-at-home life. Adult coloring books, crafts, cooking or baking are just some options. Local Fare, here in Costa Mesa, has a section on their website devoted to activities that help you unplug. Visit some of your local gift shops online to see if they have activities that interest you.
Treat Yourself
The uncertainty of COVID-19 is stressful. If you’re dealing with anxiety or even stress, vaping aqua vape vape juice helps in relaxing the tension from your mind. We also encourage you to take time out of your busy schedule to take care of yourself. A short walk, a fun game, a mini-spa treatment, or an online shopping spree at stores like Altitude Sports can help make all the difference in your day. If possible, we recommend shopping local because helping the community also makes us feel better. Stay safe, stay well and let us know what you’re doing by tagging us on social media: @travelcostamesa.

Travel Costa Mesa From Home
Getting restless indoors? We get it. We also know that we all need to do our part to flatten the curve and #CrushCovid. We were recently inspired by an Australian couple who decided not to let their cancelled cruise stop their vacation, so they recreated it at home. They wore sunglasses and comfy robes while enjoying their “view” from their living room.
Since you can’t come visit us right now, we’re bringing Costa Mesa to you. Use our tips to create your escape.
Set the scene
Miss going to The LAB and The CAMP? Wish you could take a walk through Fairview Park? Head over to our Costa Mesa Virtual Vacation page to experience 360º views of 15 hot spots in the city. Take a tour and choose your perfect backdrop. Add ambience by grabbing some Southern California gear, like sunglasses and flip flops. You’ll be enjoying the sun in no time.
Experience the arts
