Marisa Jo Mayes is a TikTok content creator and founder of a startup<\/em>. In the United States, she has gone viral for promoting what she calls “Minimum Mondays” at work, a trend that seeks to balance work and personal life.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the words of the creator herself “it’s a way to start the week prioritizing yourself as a person rather than as an employee”. She fights against a thought that many of us have internalized, the “culture of haste”. Perfectionism, self-demand and excessive responsibility that can end in call <\/u>burnout<\/em><\/u> labor.<\/p>\n

This culture of rushing causes a cycle of stress and exhaustion that we start on Monday when we arrive at the office, and ends up leaving us without energy from the beginning of the week, without the strength to do anything else until the weekend when we just want to rest. and we are attacked by what the experts call “the anguish of sunday<\/u>“.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And although she proposes applying those “minimum Mondays” or “Mondays of the essential minimum” in the workplace, is something that we can include in our relationships<\/strong> and that positively affects our lives. Or not, because it has a trick.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What are the \u201cMonday minimums\u201d<\/h2>\n

If we talk about minimum Mondays at work, we do so a form of self-care like the JOMO<\/u>. According to Theresa E. DiDonato Ph.D. from Psychology Today, \u201cit’s a way to fight against feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or stressed by all that work entails. At the heart of it is a self-care philosophy that suggests that prioritizing the self and avoiding stressors will yield better results. Your job is just your job, so prioritize yourself at the expense of your job.\u201d That is to say, that on Mondays we do what is essential at work and nothing more<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That philosophy of “survival” is adjustable to relationships, although, as with everything, it may not be for us.<\/p>\n
