    The novel coronavirus kept us home for months, and it's not gone yet. It will end, of course. But it has taught us to take a second look at our habits and to live better. Here are some tips for staying healthy.

    Keep a strong body

    We all know that a strong body is the key to fight the virus. How can we keep one? Do more exercise and eat a balanced diet. Drink more water and go to bed before 11 p. m.

    Develop different hobbies

    Some people might find that staying home is boring. Developing different hobbies can help you have fun. You can learn painting or calligraphy (书法), chess or swimming. Hobbies can help you stay positive even in hard times.

    Learn more about science

    To love and to be loved
