The simplest thing for you to do on the big lifts would be to take around an 8 rep max for everything. For an example:

On squats you take an 8 rep max and do two sets of seven. This automatically reduces the intensity (from the highest intensity you're doing) and you cut the volume by just around 40%. Wala..you've covered both bases.

You can pretty much keep your other exercises the same weight but maybe cut volume some if you want. You can take out abs or just do a plank or something.

Truthfully you probably don't technically need to drop so much just in terms of exercise recovery but I actually think you need it to feel easy as possible for this week.

I know your "routine" is more complex than most so if you need other more specific suggestions let me know. But otherwise do what you want. You don't want to detrain but you should be fine.
