Mid-Week Naps Are Healing To The Body

You might think a nap every day is healing to the body, but a daily nap may not always be feasible with our time-consuming and busy schedules; since this is usually the case for most of us, on certain days of the week schedule less work, responsibilities, and tasks for the day so you can enjoy mid-week rejuvenation.

Not every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday has to be 100% on the go.

Low & High Productivity Days

I purposely schedule lower productivity days (weekly) to ensure I am my most productive self on packed days. I did the same thing in college; I scheduled all of my classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Yes, it could get gruesome, but the other five days of the week provided me tremendous rest, freedom, and time not only for studying but personal ventures. Every day of the week doesn’t have to be go-go-go. In fact, we tend to enjoy life more, be more productive, experience more mental clarity, and are even friendlier when we have time to pause and slow down.

Scheduling Tips:

Schedule work meetings, routine tasks, classes, etc., on certain days of the week (if your schedule allows).

If you have a side gig, choose specific days or a day of the week to invest considerable time and energy (e.g., I do all of my teaching on Thursdays).

On days where you have less to do, aim not to schedule any or a lot of extracurricular activities, so you can genuinely relax. It’s easy to schedule more activities and things to do when you don’t have anything scheduled for the day, but sometimes, we need to do absolutely nothing.

As you implement the schedule tips above, you will notice that your mood, energy, holistic health (mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual), pain levels (if you are experiencing any), and productivity improve drastically.

Including the Gym

If you’re active in the gym like me, you also need to take breaks from the gym. My current resistance training gym routine is 3 days on and one day off. After completing two cycles (two weeks) of this routine, I give myself a two-day rest break instead of a one-day rest break, so my body can take even longer to repair the muscle fibers. When I don’t give myself rest days, I notice I experience more bodily pain and start to feel lethargic energy towards the gym since I’ve been going most of my life.

Final Tip

Remember to stretch, walk, and meditate daily — even if only for a few minutes; the best time to do these three things is first thing in the morning before your time dissipates to everything and everyone else. Take time to sit still, breathe, and be with yourself for at least a couple of minutes daily. The benefits will be noticeable.
