When to use: Weekly prep (Sunday or any rest day) to stock water and reset the vibe.
Why this ritual hits
It’s logistics as love: stocking hydration and SPF alongside a fresh playlist turns weekday dates into low-lift wins. A tiny Sunday reset that keeps check-ins and care supplies within arm’s reach all week.
Steps
- Stock the glow: Refill electrolytes, lemon/lime, sparkling water, and a favorite snack.
- Doorway kit: Lay out sunscreen, lip balm, and a small misting bottle near the door.
- Build the soundtrack: Add three new songs each (one hype, one calm, one flirty). Name the playlist after your current vibe: “Noviembre suave.”
Pivot (10 minutes)
- Restock only water + electrolytes.
- Pick one new song each and hit save.
- Send one text: “This week: agua first + check-ins before plans.”
Close
- Send a message that sets tone for the week: “This week: slow starts, agua first, check‑ins before plans.”
