Believe it or not, you can still stay active and look out for your health while in a smaller space. Here are five easy indoor exercise and wellness activities you can do in your Elta condo, and they all involve minimal investment and equipment.
Aromatherapy
Quick wellness activities such as a facial or warm bath can be more complete with aromatherapy. Simply light a scented candle or use essential oils to create an atmosphere that reduces stress and promotes relaxation. Turn on some soothing music and create your own spa-like atmosphere at nearly zero cost.
Dance Workouts
Instead of joining a group or signing up at a studio, why not lay out a yoga mat and do it right in your own condo’s living room? You can follow a dance workout video on your tablet, laptop, or smart TV for improving mood and cardiovascular functions. YouTube and Apple Fitness+ are several platforms you can try.
Meditation
Meditation may not seem to do a lot in terms of health benefits, but the act of slowing down and being able to control your thoughts is more useful than you’d think. It might take a while to do mindful meditation, but there are apps and videos that can guide you through the process.
Breathing Exercises
Breathing exercises are similar to meditation and have nearly the same benefits. It’s believed that deep breathing can instantly reduce muscle tension and stress. You can also use this in conjunction with meditation or exercise so you won’t get tired easily.
Sports Themed Video Games
There are console video games that let you exercise indoors and have fun as well. Games like Ring Fit Adventure, Beat Saber, and Fitness Boxing are part of a niche called ‘exergames’ and help you get more cardio and burn off calories. There are games on VR headsets you can try as well.
