1.Connect

During the week, more often we sacrifice time with our friends and family to make sure that we meet those crazy work deadlines. Take time this weekend to meet those friends you have not seen in forever, go for some nyama-choma, rugby game or that road trip to Naivasha you’ve been planning on like forever.

Connecting with loved ones and engaging in a different type of conversation will leave you feeling relaxed and energized for days to come. Call that friend or relative you’ve been making plans with but never get to see each other and catch up this weekend. Connecting can bring new perspectives and avenues you were least expecting.

2.Switch the electronics off

Take a day and keep away from the online social scene. Don’t bother with the #hashtags over the weekend; take a mental break from all the social media glitz and glamor that might not even be real. Take a walk, read a book, do some workout, review your CV, make that switch off count. I know it’s hard, but we can do it! I included.

3.Eat healthy

For foodies like me, the weekend is the time we get to enjoy some good food without the clock going tik-tok over our heads. Recharge your system by cooking and eating that healthy meal you’ve been planning on. Try cooking that biryani or chapati and laugh at your outcome. That, right there, is a step towards taking risks in things that are worth it. Take the risk on to another level.

Enjoy your weekend folks!
