Recovery Day Planner

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-08-05 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-wellbeing

Plan a real rest day — active recovery, genuine downtime, and a reset — instead of either grinding through or collapsing into a guilt-scroll. Use when asked how to spend a rest day, plan a recovery day, I'm burnt out and need to recharge, or what should I do on my day off. Produces a recovery plan matched to what you're recovering from (physical, mental, or both), gentle active-recovery options, restorative downtime that actually restores, light admin to reduce next-week stress, and permission to do less.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“How should I spend my rest day after a hard training week?”“I'm completely burnt out — plan me a recharge day.”“What should I do on my day off to actually feel rested?”“A recovery day that isn't just errands.”“I have a free Sunday and I'm mentally fried — help me use it well.”

What to give it

What you're recovering from — physical (training/labor), mental (stress/overwork), emotional, or all
How depleted — a normal rest day or genuinely burnt out
Time — a full day, half day, or a few hours
What recharges you — nature, socializing, solitude, creating, moving, doing nothing
Any must-dos — the one or two things that genuinely can't wait

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Matches the plan to the type of depletion (physical/mental/emotional)
Active recovery stays genuinely easy, not a hidden workout
Steers toward restorative activities over draining "fake rest"
Caps any admin so the day isn't secretly work
Includes an explicit permission-to-do-less option

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Turning rest day into a chore list.**
**Prescribing a hard workout** on a recovery day.
**Defaulting to screens** as "rest" when they deplete.
**Guilt-tripping** toward productivity.
**One template** regardless of physical vs mental exhaustion.
