  • This is my real 9-5 after work routine. I have a corporate job so this is how I relax and reset for the next day with my after work routine. To me, a good 9-5 after work routine sees double the benefits, it helps you unwind and decompress after your day and also sets you up right to have the best next day that you can. In this 9-5 after work routine I do a grocery haul, cook dinner, take a bath, fold laundry and spend quality time with myself. A good 9-5 after work night routine is non-negotiable for me and keeping it simple and realistic is key to making sure you can love this peaceful time after work every day. Hope you enjoy my 9-5 after work routine - loads of love, Ellen xxx

    What are your favourite ways to wind down after a day of work? Always looking for new ways to reset for the next day xxx

      Thanks for sharing your routine! I try to fit reading, journaling or meditation into my evening routine. It brings a sense of calm and helps me wind down after a long work day. 🙂

      @@jordanlaesch ​such a good idea. I typically meditate/ journal in the morning but I love the idea of it winding you down at the end of the day! xx

      i’m so late i know but i recommend reading, doing some stretches (nothing too strenuous) or watching something (normally while i do something like journalling)

    This was soooo very helpful. I just got out of a counseling session where I talked to my counselor about managing my time after work, and allowing myself to enjoy work days. I have anxiety and obsessive thoughts, and I struggle with all time management because I have ADHD. I have fallen into the habit of just wanting to shut my brain off after being at work all day, but it has turned into a fear that I won't get enough sleep if I do *anything* after work because my mind tries to tell me I don't have enough time. This is a realistic routine that feels calming and is focused on self-care. It isn't overwhelming at all! Thank you so much for this! I've just subscribed ☺

      Thank you for taking the time to comment - I appreciate you so much that made my day! 🥰 I’m so glad you found the video helpful, I truly think we only need to do a couple of tiny things for ourselves each day and it can make such a big difference ❤️

    I love spending a cozy, wholesome evening at home to wind out from a busy work day. One thing I enjoy that helps be unwind is reading (I personally love fantasy stories) 😊 But you reminded me of the joys of a warm bath and the simple pleasures of lighting a candle, thank you 🙏💜
