“…Personal care, in this study, was defined by engaging in healthy behaviours such as healthy eating and sufficient hydration, exercising, adequate sleep, as well as relaxing and engaging in meditative practices. Greater measures of healthy ways of life, personal hygiene, and relaxation practices such as these have been associated with higher reported wellbeing and reduced stress, indicating that these are helpful ways of reducing pandemic-related tension across different cultures including Germany, Lebanon, and the US [ 6 , 21 , 22 , 31–33 ] .…”
