The Sunday Reset: A Self-Care Routine to Start Your Week Calm

That Sunday evening dread has a name: the Sunday scaries. A "Sunday reset" is a simple routine that helps you finish the weekend calm and start the week organised. Here's ours.

Afternoon: reset your space

  • Tidy for 30 minutes. Clear surfaces, run the dishwasher, put a wash on.
  • Change your bedsheets. Fresh sheets on a Sunday night feel great.
  • Prep a few meals or snacks for the busy days ahead.

Relaxed Sunday at home

Early evening: plan the week

  • Look at your calendar and note the big things.
  • Write your top three priorities for Monday.
  • Lay out clothes and pack your bag.

Evening: switch off

  • Log out of work email. It'll still be there tomorrow.
  • Have a bath or shower.
  • Give your eyes a rest with ten minutes under a heated eye massager.
  • Read rather than scroll.
  • Go to bed a little earlier than usual.
