Sunday Reset: Mind Body Edition

/

Sunday is the perfect day to slow down, reflect, and realign. A reset doesn’t have to mean tackling a long to-do list — it’s about creating space to care for your mind, body, and energy before a new week begins.

But here’s the truth: if you’re not intentional about it, the weeks start to blur together. Life gets busy, and before you know it, you’ve gone too long without truly taking care of yourself. Yes, that overused saying — “you can’t pour from an empty cup” — still holds weight, because it’s true.

Real peace, calm, and self-love start within. Taking care of yourself isn’t a luxury; it’s a part of your routine just like anything else — picking up the kids, attending meetings, running errands, or planning date nights. Your well-being deserves to be scheduled, prioritized, and protected.

This Sunday (or any day that feels right for you), try creating a mindful reset — one that nourishes your body, grounds your mind, and fills your energy back up from the inside out.

Coach’s Notes

📌 Like anything else, nutrition, weight loss, or otherwise, the most important thing is that you make any habit, action step, or routine work for you. If you’ve read any other posts on this blog, you know that by now. :) Your reset is your time. Protect it like any other important appointment. Following through with something you want to do for yourself also teaches your brain that you can trust yourself. Ultimately, this is layered deep and not only helps with basic self-care but long-lasting change. - Margot

  • Schedule time for yourself. Put it on your calendar. You matter just as much as everything else on your list.

  • Commit to it — no skipping. Consistency builds confidence and calm.

  • Make it work for you. Whether it’s 5 minutes or 5 hours, it still counts.

  • Mix things up. Explore what feels good and supports your body and mind in the season you’re in.

Your Sunday reset is a reminder that peace, presence, and self-care are all choices — and you get to choose them again each week.
