Going Back After Time Off

Purpose: Plan the first day back so it does not all land on you at once.

When to use: Use this in the days before you return to work or school.

Worksheet prompts

1. What are you most worried about on the first day back?
2. What do you want to say if someone asks where you have been?
   One line is plenty. You owe no one the details.
3. Name three things that would make the first day easier.
   A short day, a quiet task, lunch with one person.

The first day back is the hardest one to picture. It is rarely the hardest one.
