How do you spend your Sundays?

On Sundays when I don’t have work or kids’ sports activities, I often feel guilty for wanting to relax and do nothing. I think I should be grocery shopping, tackling the laundry, or getting in some exercise, but I’m just so tired—both mentally and physically. So here I am, scrolling through Reddit and catching up on ABC news.

Does anyone else ever feel like they’re “wasting” their Sundays? Why do I feel this guilt yet find myself lacking the motivation to do anything productive? I’d love to hear how you spend your Sundays!

One thought on “How do you spend your Sundays”

  1. I can totally relate to what you’re feeling! Sundays can often come with that internal pressure to be productive, even when you really need a break. It’s perfectly okay to take a day for yourself, recharge, and just relax, especially if you feel mentally and physically drained.

    For me, Sundays are often about finding that balance between rest and a few small tasks. I might set aside a little time for something fun, like reading or binge-watching a show, and then tackle just one or two things on my to-do list. It helps me feel accomplished without overwhelming myself.

    I also think it’s important to remind ourselves that “doing nothing” doesn’t have to feel like a waste. Taking time to unwind can be just as important for our well-being. Maybe try to embrace that guilt-free downtime and see it as a way to prepare yourself for the week ahead.

    How about experimenting with your Sundays? You could schedule a lazy morning, followed by a short walk or some light chores, and then reward yourself with some guilt-free leisure time! Just a thought!
