Stave off cabin fever with these online resources

 

 

At some point, we're bound to get tired of scrolling through one heated thread after another and procrastinating—albeit a reprieve from the daily grind in the not-so-new normal. Still, there are better ways to make use of the time we have holed up at home. This indefinite period of collective lull has some advantages like having the ability to learn new skills and revisit hobbies we've set aside. A steadfast routine brings about a sense of normalcy benefiting one's mental health.
