It could be that you have to sit and receive some kind of medicine infusion, which takes several hours at times, or even more. Staying in one position for such an extended period takes a lot on both your psychological and physical senses, and on top of that, you're not feeling well in the first place. Keeping yourself entertained or relaxed during such sessions can very well help time pass quickly and remove your mind from the treatment aspect.
And to make that time a little easier to pass during those infusion days, here's a list of 10 things you can try to make that time easier—even enjoyable.
1. Listen to an Audiobook or Podcast
Pop in your earbuds and dive into a good story or listen to an interesting podcast. Whether it's a thrilling novel, a comedy podcast, or something educational, audio content is such an easy way to pass time without putting too much energy into it.
Pro Tip: Download episodes or chapters in advance so you don't have to struggle with issues of internet connection.
2. Watch Your Favorite Show or Movie
Bring your favorite tablet, laptop, or smartphone along and get ready to have some quality screen time. Whether it's re-watching your favorite TV show, re-watching that one movie that comforts you, or discovering something entirely new, just remember to pack a pair of headphones so you won't disturb anyone else.
Pro Tip: Light and fun is the way to go—sometimes, all one needs on long infusion days is a good laugh or a feel-good story.
3. Color or Draw
Coloring isn't just for kids! Adult coloring books can be super soothing and therapeutic, too. They require very minimal movement, making them perfect to do during infusions. If you enjoy drawing, bring a little sketchpad and some pencils to be creative.
4. Practice Meditation or Deep Breathing
Use this time to do some breathing exercises, clear your mind, or do a guided meditation. There are plenty of apps online that host guided meditations from 5 minutes to an hour; thus, you can choose the length that fits the time it takes for your infusion. Meditation can calm anxiety and make the infusion process a bit easier.
5. Journal Your Thoughts
Journaling can be a great way to process thoughts, reflect on your journey, or simply pass the time with some creative writing. Whether you use a journal to jot down daily thoughts, list things you’re grateful for, or set goals for the future, writing can be therapeutic and distracting.
6. Play Mobile Games
If you're looking for some light entertainment, then mobile games are a fun way to exercise the brain. From puzzles and word games to interactive stories, options to keep you entertained during long infusions are literally endless.
Pro Tip: If you will be out of pocket due to not having internet access, download a number of games prior to your appointment so you have some options available in case you get tired of one or experience some internet issues.
7. Bring a Book or Magazine
If you are one of those people who like holding the book in your hands, bring your favorite novel, the latest release you may never get a chance to read, or any magazine that interests you. This old style of entertainment may help engage you in passing time and transport you into another world during your treatment.
8. Knit, Crochet, or Do Needlework
If you are into knitting or crocheting, bring along a project with you to keep your hands preoccupied during the infusion. These activities take very minimal space and can easily be done while sitting in a chair. In addition, you will have something to show for your time well spent at the infusion center.
9. Video Call a Friend or Loved One
Call a friend or family member to catch up if you are feeling up to it. It's an easy way to pass time and feel a little more connected to those you love. You can let them know you are in for the long infusion, and they will likely be quite happy to help pass the time with a friendly chat.
10. Pack Food/Essentials in the Feel Good Tote
Get ready to make the most of your infusion time by gathering all of your needs in the Feel Good Tote. It's large enough to hold all your activities, ranging from books and sketchpads to snacks and extra cozy socks. Having everything you might need in one bag can make an infusion day less stressful and ensure that comfort favorites are at your fingertips. Large enough to fit your Infusion Day Blanket too!
Conclusion: Making the Most of Infusion Time
Infusions are just no fun, but ways to keep occupied and comfortable make the time a little more bearable. Whether it's reading, coloring, listening to an audiobook, or just some quiet time for oneself, finding those things to do can make all the difference. Stock up with your must-haves, bring along your favorite distraction with you, knowing you are doing all you can in taking care of yourself through the infusion process.

FROM HOTEL SHEETS TO A $639,000,000 MILLION LOTTERY WINNER, THE WEDNESDAY THAT CHANGED MY LIFE:
I worked as a hotel cleaner, struggling to survive and provide for my family. The pay was often not enough for our bills, and sometimes I felt like giving up, but my sister kept encouraging me. One Wednesday at about 2:30pm, a guest came to the hotel celebrating a huge Powerball win. He shared his testimony about how Lord Bubuza, a spell caster, had helped him win by revealing the lottery numbers he played after casting a lottery spell. His story gave me hope, so I contacted Lord Bubuza on WhatsApp: +1 (365) 808 5313 for help. I provided the requirements to cast the lottery spell and he gave me the Powerball winning numbers. I bought a $2 ticket and played. When I checked my ticket, I could hardly believe my eyes. I had won $639,000,000. After years of suffering, I broke down in tears. I am deeply grateful to Lord Bubuza. My story reminds me that even after years of hardship, life can change unexpectedly. Never give up hope, lord Bubuza is a God on Earth and can help you too.
