4 Ways to Avoid the SUNDAY SCARIES

“Do not trust her. She is a fugly sl*t.”  —Regina from Mean Girls (and us re: Mondays).

Okay, maybe going full-on Burn Book is a touch dramatic, but we can all agree that Mondays are a major source of anxiety for most of us. 

We live in a society that glorifies productivity and “the grind,” which makes it difficult to recharge on our days off. 

(Work-life balance? We don’t know her.) 

And when Sunday afternoon rolls around, we feel anticipatory anxiety about the start of the week—aka the Sunday Scaries. 

While we can’t dismantle hustle culture overnight, there are certain things we can do in the moment to help keep the Sunday Scaries at bay. 

Below are a few of our favorites. 

1. Take cover under a weighted blanket.

Weighted Blanket

Price: $179
Baloo Living

The pressure relaxes our nervous system and encourages serotonin production, helping to quell anxiety and boost mood. 

2. Write it down.

The Five Minute Journal

Price: $30
Intelligent Change

Show us someone who dislikes journaling (after giving it a serious shot), and we’ll show you a liar. What’s not to like about barfing all of your anxious thoughts onto paper, so they don’t live rent-free in your mind?

Journaling stimulates the computer side of your brain, which can help relax the emotional side. Plus, it can help interrupt spiraling thoughts. 

3. Stroke it out.

Stone Lymphatic Body Paddle

Price: $71
Heat Healer

We love a double entendre. Banish puffiness and relieve anxiety at the same time with body gua sha. This practice can help increase circulation, promote lymphatic circulation, ease muscle tension, and lower cortisol levels. 

4. Multi-mask.

Turmeric Brightening & Exfoliating Mask

Price: $17
Kora Organics

Take a cue from Kourt and make multi-masking part of your #selfcaresunday routine.
