Reconnect: 10 minutes of tea (or coffee) 

flower blossoms against the sky

Unless you are one of the (many) frontline workers who continue to provide the essential services we need to survive (huge thanks to you, I hope you are able to stay safe and get a raise equal to the amount of the CEO's salary of the company you work for), you likely are spending approximately all of your time in your humble abode.

There can be a lot of positives to this (especially if you are a Cancer), but there are also a lot of negatives, particularly cabin fever. Why not start the day with a short ritual to get you out of the house, and into nature?
When you enjoy a cup of tea or coffee to start your day, move outside (barefoot is especially lovely) and take 10 minutes to sip your drink while observing the nature around you. Smell the air, listen to the birds, examine the new growth of green buds. If you can't physically get outside, go to a window (open it if possible) and look at the world outside, or sit for your moment with a house plant. 

Give yourself the gift of reflection with nature as you start the day and you may find that the cabin fever isn't quite as bad.
