Paras Chhabra reveals how to ward off negativity amid lockdown

It has been a month since India went into complete lockdown in an attempt to prevent the spread of the Coronavirus in the country. Since going out is out of question amid strict restrictions, it is extremely important to engage oneself in some sort of physical activity. Following a proper routine is also of utmost importance.

Television hunk Paras Chhabra also feels the same. He says that it is important to keep oneself engaged in some or the other activity at home to ward off all the negativity around. “Meditation is the best solution currently. I am trying to have sound sleep and also listen to happy and positive things to deviate my mind from all the negative thoughts. While I myself don’t practice any form of meditation, I believe that engaging in recreational activities like watching TV is also good for you because that keeps your mind uplifted,” says the actor.

Sharing his daily routine during the quarantine, Paras says, “I wake up around 11 am and have my brunch. Since I am not working out, I am having more of fibre and protein, since they absorb fat from the body. My daily dose of fibre-rich food includes broccoli, carrots, and sweetcorn. I am lucky that my mom is there by my side during the quarantine, otherwise things would have been difficult.”

The actor is also devoting some time to groom himself at home. “I never used to go for facials anyway. But being at home I am trying to take good care of my skin and washing it thrice a day with cold water. I am also regularly massaging my face with aloe vera gel, since it soothes the skin and keeps it cool.”
