4 Tips For Moving During the Cold and Flu Season

Moving during any time of the year can be a huge stress in your life. That is something that we totally understand! However, moving during the cold and flu season may be one of the reasons that you end up coming down with these illnesses. Why is that? Did you know that the more stress you have in your life, the more likely your immune system is going to be affected?! So, how can you stay healthy and avoid the cold and flu while moving during this season? We have a few tips!

1. Be certain that you are taking care of yourself! While packing, you may be tempted to work long into the night, get a few hours of sleep, go to work and do this all over again. However, not getting enough sleep during this season can be one of the ways to increase your chances of dealing with the cold and flu!
2. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Packing and moving is a lot for anyone to handle at any time of the year. So, don’t be afraid to ask for help from people. If you don’t have any friend or family to help, don’t forget that Dunmar is here for all your packing and moving needs.
3. Give yourself ample time to get everything packed! Rushing is one of the main reasons that people get even more stressed!
4. Eat healthy, even while you are moving. Too many people are busy with packing and getting everything arranged that they simply do not eat like they should. Instead of eating a healthy meal, they grab a piece of cake or candy to hold them over. Not eating healthy during the cold and flu season is not going to help you avoid getting this.
While moving during any time of the year is stressful, don’t let the stress get to the point that you increase your chances of having a cold or the flu. Moving while sick makes this super miserable!
