DO NOT PANIC! NowFarms is coming. COVID-19 Letter.
Hello dear friends!
It is a very difficult time for us all. The fear of unknown. The fear of known according to the mainstream media.
Empty shelves. Closed schools, libraries, museums, gyms.... Even some of the hiking trails are closed…
Cancelled all public activities... Closed businesses. It's a nut house for sure.
What can we do to survive and thrive during this time?
Please do not panic! I know it might be very difficult to stay calm, but please find some strength, wisdom and power to stay calm. Meditate, pray or simply be grateful. It’s a great global awakening.
Spend this time together with your family. Get to know yourself.
Go deep and search for that hidden desires that you did not allow yourself to touch.
Allow yourself to live. Even in this difficult time. Make the best of it. Work with what you have.
Please limit TV, especially news. Find something new to learn instead.
Connect with others, a phone call or message will improve someone’s life greatly.
Continue with whole clean food lifestyle. We will do everything that is in our power to provide you with the best.
Drink water often. Open windows. I really do hope that it will not come to a complete lock-down.
Get fresh air as much as you can, while you can…
Washing hands should not be anything new to us.
We will make sure to go an extra mile to make sure we continue with our best hygiene routine.
Lean about holistic treatments. There is no conventional treatment for COVID-19.
Here is a link to Stephen Buhner’s book on herbal antivirals and natural remedies for emerging & resistant viral infections, not exactly COVID-19, but you will find lots of knowledge.
I hope that you will enjoy and learn something new. He has many great books, search the web.
Most kids are being homeschooled now. Make the best of it. Learn with them. Read. Play. Rest. Have fun.
Let them sleep in! They are overtired and absolutely need time to recharge to stay healthy.
Limit screen time. Free play is essential, especially for younger kids.
They do not need to do academics for 8 hours! Trust me on that. It all can be done in less than 2 hours.
Provide them with different books, on different topics.
Encyclopedias, History, Science, Music. Anything goes to spark an interest.
There are so many educational videos. Lessons. So many great resources.
Here you can find some good links for homeschooling https://homeschoolfreebie.com/
I will personally struggle with a closed gym. I need to figure out what to do instead.
I love weight lifting and absolutely adore our group classes at JCC. Maybe it’s time to start running :)
There are so many great training videos on YouTube, didn’t have a chance to look yet.
Please share with your favorites.
We are stocked with great food.
As of now there is no shortage, but if there are any changes, we’ll have to limit some products.
As long as bridges and tunnels are open, and there are no driving restrictions – we’ll be at your doors.
Please let us know if you have any signs of illness, we'll need to minimize/avoid any interactions.
PayPal or Venmo would work the best in terms of exchanging payments.
Please remember to use friends/family to avoid fees.
Please let us know if we can be any help to you and your family!
