🌿 Wellness Wednesday Blog – Finding calm in the chaos: how Mazarine resets after an intense week

In a world where performance often takes centre stage – especially in elite sports – we sometimes forget how powerful it can be to simply pause.


For rower Mazarine Guilbert, rest isn’t a luxury. It’s a lifeline.She trains hard for the European Championships, but she also makes space to recharge mentally.Not with grand gestures. But with real, honest pauses.


“After a heavy training week, I need those moments. The little things that bring me back to balance. That remind me who I am, beyond results” - Mazarine Guilbert

Here are six ways Mazarine likes to reset. Maybe some will sound familiar to you too.


☀️ 1. Coffee in the sun



Coffee and a book in the sunshine – one of Mazarine’s go-to reset rituals after a week of intense training.


It might sound simple. But that’s the point.
“Sun on my face, coffee in hand… nothing else. That moment gives me breathing space.”

A tiny pause with a big effect.

🏃‍♀️ 2. Cheering on her friends



Even as a high-level athlete, she finds energy in watching others grow.
“I love supporting my friends in their races or projects. It really lights me up.”
For her, rest is about connection – not isolation.

Mazarine cheering on her friend during a running event – support as a source of energy and joy.



🍰 3. Baking healthy treats



Homemade banana bread with dark chocolate chunks – one of Mazarine’s favourite offline reset moments.


“I put on a podcast and start baking. It brings me right into the now.”
The kitchen becomes her calm space. And if something tasty comes out of it? Bonus.



🌅 4. Watching the morning light hit her room


“That early light on my plants and my desk… it grounds me.”
A reminder that beauty is in the small things. And that the pause button is always within reach.



🍽 5. Sharing food with friends





Food, for Mazarine, is not just fuel. It’s connection.
“Sharing a meal, laughing together – it makes me feel like I don’t have to carry it all alone.”
Sometimes, peace lives around a shared table.

🐱 6. Napping with her cat Jeroom


“Jeroom doesn’t stress. He just lies down. So I follow.”
A powernap with a paw on your arm. Rest in its purest form.

Jeroom the cat sleeping peacefully on the bed – one of Mazarine’s favourite ways to mentally unwind.
