One of the best ways to reduce stress and anxiety on Monday morning is to take some time

on Sunday night to plan your week ahead. This includes writing down all of your appointments, deadlines, and to-dos. You can also use this time to create a meal plan or map out your workouts for the week.


Tidy up your space

A clean and organized space can help you feel more relaxed and focused. Take some time on
