Today's Daily Quarantine Planner is brought to you by Brew Editorial Coordinator Jamie Wilde. As you'll see, she's got some excellent taste.
Quick morning workout
Let's do some yoga: Repeat Sun Salutation 5x, end in mountain pose, take five deep breaths, and set a simple goal for the day, like "brush my teeth before 1pm."
Events happening in cyberspace
- TED Connects is going live with hopeful experts weekdays at noon ET. Today, it's Bill Gates.

Lunch break, but make it productive

Dinner plans
- Expectation: Make kimchi fried rice. Here's my favorite recipe, but saute some bacon and garlic between steps 1 and 2.
- Reality: Warm up a Costco croissant. Tear in half and stuff a square of dark chocolate into each side.
Evening activities
No screen: You don't need a feather quill to try faux calligraphy. Once you get the basics down, you can build out a bullet journal to add some structure to your socially distanced days, or just send your grandparents a nice letter.
Screen: There's a reason everyone's buying the videogame Animal Crossing: New Horizons—you don't have to leave your house to hop on a Dodo Airlines flight. Set up your island, save up your Nook Miles, and come visit me. Here's my Dodo Code: 54SGT.
