Set aside time in the evening for relaxation and unwinding.

I've found that managing work stress at the beginning of the week is crucial to setting a positive tone for the rest of the week. To handle this, I have developed a few strategies that work well for me: Prioritization: On Monday mornings, I like to create a to-do list for the week. This list helps me prioritize tasks and set clear goals, which can reduce stress by providing a sense of direction. Time Blocking: I allocate specific time blocks for different tasks and activities throughout the week. This approach helps me stay organized and ensures that I'm not overwhelmed by multiple tasks at once. Mindfulness and Relaxation: To combat stress, I practice mindfulness techniques, such as deep breathing exercises or short meditation sessions. These moments of relaxation help me maintain a calm and focused mindset.

...if you don't end the week and keep working through the weekend, you don't need to face work stress at the BEGINNING of the week, by definition... :D just saying...

Sit tight, go to notion make a to-do list and assign weekly tasks to your team and getting ready for all challenges like late deliveries or any other issues. I have Digital Marketing agency so i know i have to keep record of my clients but 1 time i do something wring due to this stress with my Aluminium Kozijnen local business and my listing goes down since then i always make to-do list. It's important.

Actually, I go on a long hike during the weekends, so I spend the beginning of the week being chill and calm! 😅

@chaimae_sakhi1 that sounds so awesome! I should try it out

I hold Monday huddles - short 30 mins planning the work ahead and waking everyone up :)

It seems to me that if there is stress at work at the beginning of the week, something is wrong with the weekend =) Stress usually builds up by the last day of work and is relieved with music, beer, hookah and board games with coworkers on Friday night with nice music

Creating a to-do list, playing some music and pacing from time to time :D

At the start of the week, stress is not so severe. But it tends to build up during the workweek, so relaxing and recharging over the weekend is crucial.

@elenat same page, a relaxing weekend is super critical

Task-batching and clear prioritization. Not mastering these yet but getting better. Happy week to all of you, if Monday wasn't the best one, it's okay to start the week's productivity on Tuesday. :)
