You need a minimum of a day or two to get loose and bring back the motivation in you. Take some time to rest by sleeping at least 8 hours. Dig in your favorite sport or hobby during the weekend and enjoy playing. Go shopping with your friends if it makes you feel good. Indulge over good food in known restaurants with your loved ones. Drink good wine and eat delectable food. This promotes balance in your life and prevents you from getting exhausted and burnt out in your work.
