Sundy Rituals to Kickstart a new week
Hello everyone ^^
I know its not Sunday yet but we all need some time to prep don´t we ;)
Today I thought I´d round up my favourite things to do on a Sunday and those things which help me most when it comes to starting a new week perfectly prepared and stress-free ^^ and isn´t it a wonderful thing to know on Monday that the week ahead is going to be smooth because everything its planned as far as possible ;)
So here are some ways to make the week ahead much easier, ways to declutter your mind throughout the week and to relax before Monday begins - Rituals to have a relaxed week and a lovely Sunday too ^^
1. Map out the upcoming week
I find it really helpful to make a plan for the new week or maybe only to check out the new week.

I made it a habit of mine to sit down every sunday and get through the next five pages of my planner to plan the new week, to check appointments and plans and to see what it coming up.
So when it comes to de-stressing the week I really think its very helpful to plan for the week ahead, that way it wont pass you by so quickly and I always find that it´s way more successful when the week is planned...because its not so easy to forget everything ;) and who does not want a productive week ^^
2. Prep the meals for the week ahead
A part of planning the week ahead is to plan what you are going to eat.
I realised how helpful that is...especially recently...after kind of moving together with my boyfriend we cook a lot together and going to the supermarket after trying to find what to cook everyday is so stressful and annoying, trust me you don´t want to do that!
I mean food shopping is stressful enough if you do it once a week, isn´t it.
Think about the meals you want to prepare, especially if you are trying to eat healthier, that way you wont just jump to a quick choice when you are tired and lazy at night ;)

3. Take a relaxing bath
I think I might have said it often enough in the past but...there is nothing more relaxing than a hot bubbly bath.
At the same time I dont think there is a better way to start into a new week than the relaxed way.
Knowing that there is a Monday ahead is no much less "omg.omg.omg" when you are perfectly relaxed ^^

4.Pamper - Indulge - Do something for you
An other part of the whole start the week in a relaxed day is to spend your sunday doing something for you.
After a often vivid and eventful Saturday with family and friends I think Sunday is the perfect day to only do what ever you want to do ^^
So pamper and indulge and stop the thinking about everyone else, stop the calorie counting and the to do list ticking ;)
Like I said take a bath, redo your nails, make a hair and face mask, finish a project what ever comes to your mind or make a day trip if that´s what you want ^^ or just treat yourself to an amazing dinner at your favourite restaurant ^^
Who doesn´t love a little pampering and chilling on the sofa with Netflix, wine, some treats and maybe a face mask...its the perfect way to start into the new week!
5. Take a long (slow) walk
An other way is a lovely walk a relaxed one not a huge Mount Everest like hike and climb ;)
A lovely slow walk in the nature surrounding you, a forrest, a park where ever you life, the more nature the better of cause, because its so lovely and quiet there, but where ever you live every place is lovely, just visit your favourite place and have a lovely long and slowed down time

Well this next one is probably the most obvious one and you might have already discovered the two main things I wanted to show you ^^
Having no plans for Sunday always is a lovely thing and the best way to start such a day is to have a lovely lay in till midday, have breakfast in bed and stay in your pj´s all day long ^^
Who needs Sunday-Funday if you can have Sunday-Sleep in Day ;)
7.Spending the day at home - start a new series, play some board games or finally finish that ps4 game
When it comes to the end of the weekend and to the end of Sunday there is nothing quite like finishing that amazing series on Netflix or to start and immediately Binge-Watch a new one ^^
Also it´s so lovely to spend that evening playing some board games with your favourite people or and yes that is something personal...FINALLY finish that amazing PS4 game which...you still don´t quite understand why...have to finish it ;) ahahaha
8. Something perfect for a calm Sunday - try a new recipe
During everyday life its so easy to fall into a routine which is easy and quick and suits your energy and motivation but on Sundays...lets mix it up a little ^^ No easier way than doing that with something new, something exciting and different in the kitchen ^^
Weather you prefer to cook lunch or dinner...really does not matter ;) when ever you have some free time to spare you have to opportunity to try out some new recipes cooking and baking wise ^^
There are so so so many amazing things to try out...you would need every sunday for the rest of your life to try them all ^^
9. A new week a new bed - change your sheets
Oh is there really anything more satisfying than new sheets ^^
Besides all the sanitary reasons of changing your bed sheets once a week its also just such a wonderful feeling to kow you´ll sleep in fresh sheets that evening ^^ And its the ferfekt way to strat a new week - fresh weeke - fresh start - fresh sheets ;)
10. Get rid of the old week and empty your handbad
Honestly this is something I hardly ever do even tho I want to so often and actually plan on every week ;) So in general its like Marry Poppins or Hermionis bag rather than something clean and well put together ^^ and to be honest its just way to funny to find things when going through it once a month ;) Or once a year when filming a What´s in my bag ;)
BUT yes its a huge but I think its a nice habit to include into a Sunday routine to clean it out and make a better start for a new week - keep it clean and essential - keep it organised and calm ^^
What do you think of my Sunday Habits and Routines?
Do you have anything you do every Sunday to make the start into the new week easier?
Whats your favourite thing to do on a Sunday?
