Monday is the start for workers to start their activities again after resting at the weekend. Because of this, many people often feel less enthusiastic about welcoming Monday or what is commonly known as the Monday blues. However, this habit is certainly not good for your productivity. Here are some tips to start Monday off with a bang.
1. Enough Rest

Before Monday arrives, make sure you have enough rest. Don't stay up late on Sunday as this will affect your energy the next day. When your body has had enough rest, you will definitely feel the energy that can help you start the day more energetically.
2. Do Slow Morning

To help you start the day on a new week, do slow mornings, namely doing all activities slowly. For example, waking up earlier than usual so you relax for a while by enjoying a cup of coffee or tea while watching the news. This slow morning can help you recharge before work.
3. Enjoy Your Breakfast

To be more excited, you can start Monday by eating your favorite breakfast. If you still have time, you can also cook or even try new recipes that have never been tried, you know.
4. Morning Workout/Exercise
In addition to increasing energy, exercising in the morning can also nourish your body. After waking up, you can do some stretching or even jogging around the house. For those of you who want to, you can also try yoga so that your mind becomes calmer.
