My Perfect Sunday
How musician Jeremy Loops avoids the dreaded Sunday night blues
Jeremy Loops tells us what he gets up to on the weekend and why his Sundays have an 'extra-special Sunday feel'
I like waking up whenever I feel like it. Like most musicians, I work Fridays and Saturdays, so Sundays are my day to rest. Except I normally try to take Monday off too, just to make up for the extra work I do on the weekend, and also to escape the mental prison that is a Monday morning.
So Sundays have that extra-special Sunday feel to me, without the fear of the looming Monday blues. Nonetheless, Sundays are the only day people don't have expectations of you on a work frontier.
When I do get up, I meditate. Normally just for 10 minutes. Longer if there's a lot on my mind. Following that I'll regularly pop out to get my eyes on the surf and just inspect what the ocean is doing.
From here on out the day could unfold in any way, but I almost always go home to make a green juice, or nut-butter smoothie before anything more serious is undertaken.
