HERE'S A LIST OF ALL THE FREE STUFF YOU SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF DURING SOCIAL ISOLATION
Now is unique time in our lifetime. Despite the circumstances of the world's current state, when are we ever going to have a couple of weeks (or more) of time to ourselves with no outside (literally, outside) obligations? Rather than focusing on the things you're missing out on, channel that energy towards embracing a new hobby, mastering a new craft, or having new experiences. All FOR FREE.
Time to throw on that super cute new PJ set you bought just for quarantine (t-god that tie-dye is back in, amirite?), open a bottle of wine or craft your fave mocktail, because we're giving you the tea on all the free stuff right at your fingertips.
If you're looking to come back from quarantine with a six-pack, or just looking for more movement than moving from your couch to your kitchen to your bed, here are some of our fave fitness brands that are offering free workouts:
