Time to explore new hobbies

Pushpesh Dhingra

The major change I have experienced during this lockdown period is that I am getting to spend quality time with my family. This was something I had missing for long as everyone had been busy with their daily routines. This period has been one of the best of my life and I have decided that even when this pandemic gets over, we, as a family, shall spend some time with each another every day.

Despite its gloomy appearance, lockdown has brought positive changes too as I have more time to do what I love, change my habits and explore new hobbies. One big change for me has been that I have started doing exercises daily, for about 30 minutes. And I have promised myself that I shall definitely be continuing it, even when all this is over.

As I love cooking, I used to indulge in making some delicacies but now, with more time at hand, I am frequenting the kitchen more and not only are my daughters loving it, my wife too has been happy with all this and me, of course. I’m also finding the slower pace of life so much nicer and I feel my stress levels have already dropped a few notches.
