Oh, the good old Sunday Scaries. It’s got to be one of the most #hashtagged phrases on social media because we’ve all been there.

You have an awesome, fun, silly Saturday night and feel like you are being punished by the universe the minute your eyes open up on Sunday morning. You might feel a bit anxious, a bit down in the dumps, a bit tired from the lack of sleep, dehydrated/hungover and maybe even a little bit panicked from all the money you spent last night. Not to mention a bit sick to your stomach from all of the junk food you indulged in.

Here is a new way to take back your Sunday. Think about the real reason why you are feeling a bit down come Sunday morning. It very well has to do with the fact that you had an awesome Saturday! You are feeling this way because of how much fun you had celebrating life with people you love. If you spent it smiling, laughing, dancing, drinking and eating with loved ones, then it’s no wonder that life (as it is all about balance) comes in HOT on a Sunday leaving you feeling..well.. yuck.

Life is all about balance and what goes up must come down. You gotta take the good with the bad, the happy with the sad. Life is always going to balance you out.

Here are some ways you can TAKE BACK YOUR SUNDAY

+Spend at least one hone phone/technology free.

+Take a hike, literally! Get outside and breathe in some fresh air.

+Eat something GREEN.

+Drink plenty of water. Hydration is KEY to feeling good.

+Spend some time reminiscing on the night prior, going over every laugh and smile you shared.

+Reach out to loved ones to check-in with them. Sundays are perfect for this!

+Take some time to just chill out and do nothing, and DON’T feel guilty if you weren’t as productive as you would have liked to be.

You’re going to be just fine. Mondays always suck but think about how lucky you are to get some time to indulge with loved ones. It’s a pretty sweet life we live.
HAPPY SUNDAY
