Intro
Sundays used to stress me out — I’d feel behind before the week even started. But now I have a little reset routine that helps me feel grounded and ready to go. It’s simple, gentle, and doable (even during busy semesters).
🧠 Brain Dump + To-Do List
I grab a notebook or open a doc and do a quick brain dump of everything on my mind — school, errands, random worries. Then I turn that into a small to-do list for the week. This helps clear the mental clutter and makes the week feel more manageable.
🧼 Tidy My Space
I clean up my desk, do a quick tidy, maybe light a candle. Resetting my environment helps me reset mentally. It’s like clearing space in my brain, too.
🚶♀️ Movement + Mindfulness
Whether it’s a walk, a short stretch, or a few deep breaths, some kind of movement helps me reconnect with my body and slow down my thoughts. Even five minutes makes a difference.
📅 Look Ahead With Kindness
I check my calendar, plan out a few meals, and make space for breaks. I remind myself that the goal isn’t to be perfect — it’s to stay present and steady.
Outro
If you’ve been feeling scattered, maybe try your own version of a weekly reset. You deserve a calm start to your week, too. 🌿
