30 SELF-CARE SUNDAY IDEAS TO KICKSTART YOUR WEEK

1. Sleep in a little longer – you have got one day to compensate for all the loss of sleep you had. So COMPENSATE!
2. Stretch your body – a little stretching after waking up will make you feel more energetic and motivated
3. Make yourself a cup of coffee/tea/green tea, literally anything you love
4. Take a bath and not a shower – I explain the why here in my pamper routine. You’ll love it!
5. Apply a hair and face mask – A chilled Sunday is a good time to get your hair and skin back on track. You’ve been doing all things bad to them all week. My favorite hair and face masks are this and this, respectively.
6. Listen to your favorite music – I absolutely agree when they say that music makes you calm, happy and serene. So play some happy music there
7. Make yourself a healthy breakfast – Get going with oatmeal, add some berries or have some egg, sandwich anyythinggg!
8. Sit on a couch, just sit and eat – Just sitting and not really doing anything makes your mind calm and think beyond what you have been thinking. Umm, like, when I want to do something and I’m thinking and thinking and not getting anywhere, I sit back and do any of the self-care rituals, and my mind starts to think better ways to do that thing. Hope that was clear enough.
9. Watch your favorite TV/Netflix show – I’m a huge F.R.I.E.N.D.S fan, so I watch that or any other show I’d be obsessing on currently.
10. Tidy up your place a bit- It’s time to put “Cleanliness is the way to calm your mind, soul, and body” in work.
11. Drink a glass of water/detox water – This is to make you remember that do not forget to drink water. Keep yourself hydrated. It is as important to keep your sanity in place.
12. Write a love letter to yourself – Write a beautiful letter to yourself in a third person. You’ll be happy to come back to this and see your growth later in life. Even the smallest growth matter!
13. Roam around the house – Just go and give yourself a house tour. Grab a fruit or snack along the way. Just roam!
14. Make a list of to-do tasks for the upcoming week – Having a clear idea of what you have to do next makes your today and tomorrow better, as you know everything is organized and pretty.
15. Paint your nails – Giving myself a quick mani/Pedi session is what I look forward to every weekend. Even if that means just trimming my nails and applying a clear topcoat. It’s one of the most relaxing self-care Sunday activities to do. I have rounded up a few pretty nail designs here.
16. Sing at the top of your lungs – My favorite thing to do is this. I don’t even care how bad my voice is. All I care about is I love this song, and it sounds delicious (to my ears, at least)
17. Manage your photo albums – We all love going through good memories which we caught on camera. Along with managing, You’ll find yourself smiling a lot seeing all those good times.

20. Take a nap – Naps get you back fresher. Take a nap. Even make it a little longer. Just feel cozy and warm.
21. Go outside for a walk – An evening walk can literally refresh you. You’ll see children playing, people laughing, cute dogs and all the happy things. Evening > Morning walk.
22. Do some gardening – Watering plants and talking to them really makes your inner soul satisfied. Watching those plants grow is serene.
23. Get dressed and put on some makeup – If you are a makeup junkie like me, try creating amazing eye looks. Put on your glam makeup. Click cute selfies. Dance to your favorite song. Love yourself a little.
24. Take yourself on a solo date – It’s okay, don’t feel awkward; everybody does it, you are more important than what everybody thinks.
25. Buy yourself some fresh flowers/plants you want to nurture – Fresh flowers have this instant vibe to make you feel happy internally.
26. Light a scented candle and do your skincare – As a skincare freak, this self-care Sunday idea is my personal favorite. Cleanse your skin deeply, apply layers of moisturizers and relax. You could check out some beautiful candles here
27. Read a chapter of the book – I agree, a thing about books is that it’s never just reading one chapter. At least 3-4. But if you love that, go ahead! Who’s stopping you?
28. Leave a positive note for yourself to wake up to the next morning – Just a ‘You are strong, and you can do this. I love you.’ would be fine to smile upon the next day
29. Practice breathing – Deep breathe in, deep breathe out. Meditate for a little while. Keep a check on the way you breathe.
30. Take a good 8 hours of sleep – Sleep a Lil early but do make sure to have a full night’s sleep. You deserve it!
