Is Monday the worst day of the week?

You wake up on Monday after having caught up on sleep over the weekend. That makes you more rested, you're recharged, you go on social media, and boom! Suddenly, many messages remind you that "Monday is the worst day of the week," "I wish it were Sunday," or a drawing appears of someone injecting themselves with coffee first thing in the morning to endure what some say is the worst day of the week.

Well, according to scientists, no. Considering Monday the worst day of the week is a matter of the mind. In fact, researchers at the London School of Economics, after analyzing the mood swings and states of mind of 22,000 people, concluded that Mondays are by no means the worst day of the week.

We probably look at Monday with some apprehension because we find it hard to adapt to the change, to the rest we've had over the weekend. Put a good face on Monday! Treat yourself to some pampering when you get off work or when you're less busy, and that way you can always say it's been a great day.

In fact, the good feelings from the weekend might linger, and Monday will be a good day to set goals. The one we recommend here: take care of yourself. In fact, we've noticed that Monday is the day you buy the most through the website. There must be a reason, right?

1. #NoExcuses

Work out a little, practice yoga, or whatever you consider. Laziness is not an option. A trick? Prepare your sports clothes near your bed, so you'll have everything ready from the moment you wake up. That will help you activate the famous happiness hormone from the beginning of the week.

2. Start with the most difficult tasks

At Maminat, organizing our tasks and priority lists helps us a lot. If we don't, we end up exhausted, stressed, and frustrated. To save paper, we use a website called "Trello," and if you don't know it, we recommend it.

We have realized that if on Monday we address and prioritize the most difficult tasks we have during the week and manage to solve them, we get much more satisfaction than if we postpone them until the end of the week. When Thursday or Friday arrives, we are usually tired and do not dedicate the same energy to what was more complicated and important.

3. Treat yourself to some care

A good shower, you don't even need a bath after coming home from work. You use your favorite Maminat gel, one of our natural shampoos (and we say one of our shampoos because the fact that they are sulfate-free makes washing your hair with them much more conscious), you apply your Terreta Body Cream and on the driest areas of the body, such as the heels, you apply our cream for these areas.

4. Don't leave everything for Monday

If you start Monday "like a beast," your energy will spike, and you run the risk of losing it for the rest of the week. Therefore, it might be a good idea to set aside a little time on Sunday evening to plan your week. It usually helps quite a bit.

So we'd love to hear if you apply these habits and manage to make Monday look better. You may even have your own tricks. If you want to share them, great!
