Tips for Maintaining Mental Health in The Digital Era
World Mental Health Day is celebrated every year on October 10, exactly a month ago. This warning aims to increase public awareness and concern for the importance of mental health. Now we live in the digital era, where mental health problems are not only related to the real world, but also the virtual world. Everything must receive equal attention. However, for this article, I am only focusing on mental health in cyberspace.
Often we see information on social media or internet that is not balanced between positive and negative things. Of course, it would be useful to get positive information about new knowledge, new experiences, productive activities, something creative, and entertaining. On the other hand, your mind will get anxious, bored, stressed, wasting time, and gives rise to jealously if you see negative information, such as hoax, criminal news, hate speech, and flexing content. Therefore, for this reason, we must be wise in using social media. If you feel it is not useful, it is better to stop first.
Here tips for maintaing mental health in the digital era:
1. Strive for quality sleep. The ideal sleep for an adult is 5-8 hours a day. Don't be less or more. Before going to bed, make sure the lights are dim, the bed is comfortable, the air circulation is good & smells good, no mosquitos, gadgets are turned off, & you can set the alarm. Quality sleep is important, so that the body is healthy, fit, relax, & happy to welcome the next day. A good mood means good mental health
2. Impose time restrictions, if necessary a day without social media excepts for work needs, learn new knowledge, important means of communication, & looking for more luck. Don't let our minds be filled with toxic content. This is often called social media detox
3. Limit interactions, respect the privacy of yourself & the others on social media. However, positive interactions in the real world are more important
4. Reduce curiocity about people's lives because it can make us stressed & less grateful. It's better to find out our weaknesses and immedeately improve yourself
5. Adopt healthy lifestyle and be disciplined in prioriting activities. Play social media & internet only for things that are useful. Even if you are tired, you have to rest because you also have to maintain eye health
6. If you bored due to using gadget, try healing either alone, with family, or friends with the same hobby

Sport must Involve Strong Physical Movement, How about Chess?
How about chess, one of individual sports? Altough chess was official sport, I often hear people say that chess was inappropriate called sport until now because it didn't involve strong physical movement. It only about think and think activity. Move the chest piece was not strong physical movement. Chess didn't take a lot of sweat. But, there was opinion against it. Think activity is part of brain sport. Practice brain skill for many hours in one professional chess match needs physical strength. I see that one professional chess match spend 6 hours. Chess learn about individual strategy to win the game with many plans. In my opinion, in chess match, if we have a bad physique, mood, patience, and mental, we will lose the game easily. So, before the match, we must keep our fitness. All of it was become element of sport. I agree and pro about chess was a sport, but I respect the people who disagree with that.

When we play chess under pressure (not for entertainment, not for fun, but for carry the name of the country), so we will spend take a lot of sweat, because we are in tense condition. It remove a lot of fluids. The activity that remove a lot of fluids could be called sport. So, we have to look view of the whole part, not a half part, and sure that chess deserves to be called sport. Besude that, we must plan the certain exercise, not only physics, but also mental, before the match.

Have you been Vaccinated with The COVID-19 Booster?
Hello blogger friends from all over the world, how are you? I hope that you will continue to be given blessings, health, and the spirit of writing. Aamiin😇. This is the first article on my second blog (english blog) in 2022. Hopefully, this article about COVID-19 will be last, in the sense that the COVID-19 pandemic ends this year😊.
In my country, Indonesia, the permitted COVID-19 booster vaccine include AstraZeneca, Moderna, Pfizer, Sinopharm, Sinovac, Zivivax. But the one with the most stock is AstraZeneca. Even though is much cheaper than other COVID-19 vaccines, because the inventor didn't patent AstraZeneca, puts the human side forward, but don't neglect quality.
Surprisingly, many looking for Pfizer because it is considered more effective, suitable for commorbidities, and has a few side effects. But, as far as I can see, someone got the COVID-19 booster Pfizer vaccine, then a few days had a fever. While my father who is 70 years old, has comorbidities, and gets the COVID-19 booster AstraZeneca vaccine, it did not serious side effects. Just sleepy and easily hungry. So, everything is returned to the immune and body condition of each individual. If you are worried that you have side effects and attack comorbidities, you should first consult with your doctor. Each COVID-19 vaccine, include booster, that have been recognized by the government, has its own advantages and disadvantages.
I got the COVID-19 booster vaccine (the third vaccine) on February 17, 2022. after 6 months (the latest rules are enough 3 months apart) of the second dose of COVID-19 vaccine on August 12, 2021. For the first and second COVID-19 vaccines using Sinovac, while boosters use AstraZeneca. I didn't get any serious side effects when vaccinated sinovac. However, I got side effects from AstraZeneca booster vaccine in the form of joint pain in my right legs for 2 days. I got my all my vaccine at a community health center near my house, with a limited quota and 2 times a week. When I recovered, I became more confident to go outside, of course, by continuing by carry out health protocols.
In Indonesia, Data for Every Citizen who has been Vaccinated and Other Information Related to Vaccines and COVID-19 is Integrated in One Application: Pedulilindungi.id |
Now, the Indonesian government has a made a new rule that when travelling using public transportation such as trains and planes, it is not necessary to have an antigen/PCR test provided that you have been fully vaccinated, at least the second vaccine. This is of course good news, although there are still concern that people will not obey health protocols, especially during long holidays. There is even a new rule for the Eid holiday after Ramadan, everyone who returns to their hometown must have a The COVID-19 booster vaccination. Of course, there are exceptions, for those who are prohibited from vaccines by including a doctor's letter. zIf it's just the second vaccine, it still has to be tested for Antigen or PCR.
There is a plan from the government about the 4th COVID-19 vaccine or the second booster vaccine. I think as long as it has been scientifically tested and proven have a new variant, of course it should be supported. Hopefully there won't be a new variant and the first booster vaccine will suffice.
Lastly, I also want to know your condition after being vaccinated. Have you been vaccinated with the COVID-19 booster? what type of vaccine? Are there any side effects? or something else about COVID-19 vaccines? Please share in the comments column. Thanks. Stay safe and healthy.

COVID-19 vaccines that are applicable in my country, Indonesia, include: Sinovac, AstraZeneca, Sinopharm, Moderna, and Pfizer-BioNTech. However, Sinovac vaccine is most used. I also was injected by the Sinovac Vaccine (double dose). The effect that I feel (one day after injection) is only soreness in the area of the injection site, hunger pang, and drowsiness. After that, it's back to normal. How about you? Please comments in the comments column. Thank you, stay safe and healthy. God blessed us🙏.
