Sunday Reset: A Simple Routine to Start Your Week with Ease
Ever feel like Mondays hit you like a train? A well-spent Sunday evening can set the tone for the entire week ahead. Instead of dreading Monday, use this time to reset, recharge, and get ahead of the chaos. Here’s a simple Sunday Reset Routine to help you start fresh and feel in control.
1. Declutter Your Space
Your environment affects your mental state. Spend 10-15 minutes tidying up your space—put away laundry, clear off the kitchen counter, and organize your workspace. A clean space = a clear mind.
2. Brain Dump & Plan Your Week
Take out a notebook (or your phone) and jot down everything on your mind—tasks, deadlines, meals, appointments. Then, prioritize 3 key things you want to focus on this week. This prevents mental overload.
3. Prep Your Mind & Body
● Pick out your Monday outfit or pack your work bag.
● Set up your "Monday Morning Playlist" for an energy boost.
● Do something that signals "wind-down mode" (read, stretch, or take a warm shower).
4. Create a Small Moment of Joy
Start the week with something you look forward to. A favorite coffee, a walk before work, or a 10-minute journaling session can shift your mindset.
Closing:
Your Sunday reset doesn’t need to be long or complicated. Just a few small actions will make Mondays feel more manageable—and maybe even enjoyable. Try it out tonight and set the tone for a great week!
