Fans have been meeting their idols every day, having meltdowns on Instagram in front of thousands of followers. Could you be chosen today?

2. Organise your photo gallery
De-clutter your life, organise your memories into one folder. Most of us have messy galleries but create your virtual photo book, while you have the time.
3. Daily meditation
Storyteller and motivational speaker Jay Shetty is hosting guided meditation every day at 16:30/17:30 UK GMT to help de-stress you and give you some time out from a hectic day. He also shares special readings and quotes from personal development books, helping you shape the person you are.
Sometimes we all need that break so check out his 20-minute sessions on Youtube, Instagram @Jayshetty
4. Start sketching again, or paint
One of the most soothing tasks you can do throughout the day, all you need is paper and paint, even use those old cardboard boxes or newspapers in your house. Post your pictures and show us what you’ve come up with.
5. Dance Lessons
Tune in to Insta Live, check dance studios’ profile’s, many of them are giving away free dance lessons online everyday. If you want to stay fit, try out something new! Check out: @thebollywoodco and @basedancestudios
6. Learn an instrument
There are plenty of videos and tutorials on Youtube for you to get busy with. Do you think you can learn a new skill in 20 days?
7. De-clutter your workspace and home life
In quarantine, we are all constantly in our homes, take some time to clean your desk, clean any mess out on the floors and corners of your room. Once you’ve finished with your room, reorganise your wardrobe or even your kitchen cupboards. After a few hours of cleaning you will be much happier and destress when you sit down to watch TV.
8. Online Personal Training
Who needs the gym? Personal trainers are posting FREE Instagram stories! Get out of your bed and start doing some home workouts today. Check out @BodyandBeyonduk on Instagram.
9. Download Tik Tok

You might be against it, but everyone has jumped on the trend. It can get very hostile and negative staying in one place at home, but lighten up your day with some humour on Tik Tok. The app has endless content, dance challenges, meme’s and pranks on loved ones.
While you’re stuck at home try our favourite challenges:
- ‘Oh na na na’ dance challenge
- Stair shuffle
- Savage dance
10. Go out for a walk/jog/run ONLY at odd hours of the day
5am-7am still is a clean slate, but for anyone going out at 12pm and between 4pm-7pm just remember it might be busier and you may struggle to social distance, if you see more than ten people out in close proximity then try keep your distance as much as possible.
Research has shown it only takes 20 days to in-still a new habit, whether it’s brushing your teeth twice a day, completing a new online course or cooking, you’ve got this!
