Come Monday and most of us feel blue. This is a common feeling we all have regarding the very first day of the week, “Monday”. For a few it's no less than a war to get over the weekend hangover and head to work on a Monday morning. Despite following the same routine, we still find it hard to cope with the Monday Madness.
Well, when we know Mondays are here to stay then why not try and make it the best day of the week! Here check out some of the effective ways that will help you win over the Monday blues and make a great start on every Monday.
1. Stop living just for the weekends : It has been proved that work stressed people tend to turn happier as the weekend approaches. You don't have to restrict your joy to weekends only, instead spread it and plan something joyful for every day.
2. Take a break : After a week of work, we all need a quality break which is spent in partying hard or hanging out with friends. It's always good to rejuvenate your senses, but it will be double the fun if you choose to keep your Sunday free. This way you will have a day's time to relax and calm your senses.
3. Do not oversleep : Sleeping for extra hours might give you a mental satisfaction but it won't have any good effect on the body. Sleeping till noon will make you feel all the more drowsy and tired. Do everything as per a proper schedule so that your next day routine doesn't get affected.
4. Plan your Mondays : Don't feel as if the Sunday night is not going to get over. It will certainly do and you will have to accept the same. Plan your Monday morning the night before. Be ready with your office outfit, and plan the lunch you will be cooking in the morning. This will prevent you from any unwanted stress that generally occurs on Monday.
5. Get adequate sleep : You partied a lot on Saturday night and had a wonderful Sunday too. But keep a tab of your sleeping hours so that next day morning doesn't turn out to be a race track. Hit the sack at a reasonable time so that you wake up on Monday without any hassle.
6. Eat Breakfast Like A King : Never ever skip your breakfast. Starting your day with a healthy breakfast boosts your metabolism and keeps your day energetic.
7. Tune into some soothing music : Listening to your favorite tunes while doing your morning chores will keep your mind charged and active.
8. Start your day eith a fun workout session : Doing some exercise is the right way to kick start the day in an energetic manner. This even calls for getting up early and staying focused for the rest of the day.
9. Dress to impress : Your dressing style will also have an impact on how you feel. Put on the best of your outfits on Monday so that you feel good about yourself which will in turn help you develop a positive attitude and beat the Monday blues.
10. Smile a lot, It costs nothing : Don't let the smile fade away from your face. Relax your mind and take on the day with positivity. By doing so you will stay away from any sort of grumpiness and would be able to work without stress.
