Transition the day downward
Recovery improves when your nervous system receives clear signals that the day is slowing down. A short routine can help you shift from “go mode” to rest.
- Dim lights and lower screen brightness.
- Do 3–5 minutes of slow breathing or stretching.
- Keep late evenings calmer when possible.
Support tomorrow before bed
Small preparations reduce morning stress and help the next day feel smoother. This also makes it easier to keep healthy habits consistent.
- Set out water, a snack, or breakfast basics.
- Write down your first task for tomorrow.
- Keep bedtime consistent most nights.
Wellness cue
Recovery is a daily practice, not a once-a-week reset.
"A calmer evening often creates a calmer morning."
