Lunchtime naps hands down. Some say that napping can help them escape from daily stresses and overthinking, and that it's like rebooting their computer. Research suggests that napping can help people achieve the benefits of REM sleep, which is important for processing emotional experiences and reducing stress.
@abod_rehman I keep a checklist with me that helps me tick off the tasks that are completed throughout the week. This way I no I'm not lacking behind. :D
Here's what works for me to reduce Monday stress: 1) Reflect on the week ahead on Sunday evening and jot down priorities to focus on rather than a huge to-do list. Seeing the big picture helps! 2) Build in some 'me time' on Monday morning before diving into work - even just 15-30 min of meditation, reading, or exercise to start the day calm & centered. 3) Schedule the tough tasks early in the day to get them out of the way. Momentum builds through small wins! Hope this gives you some ideas to try out.
It depends a lot.
But for me personally, it's in reducing the stress factor literally - doing a work when it's possible and preparing to all new challenges and requests.
All other coping technics, like walking on nature, are more like supplemental ones.
