Fall into Self Care: 10 Tips to Recharge Your Mind, Body & Soul This Autumn
The crisp air and changing leaves signal that autumn is here. As the days get shorter and colder, it's important to focus on nourishing your mind, body, and spirit. Self care isn't just about the occasional bubble bath or spa day - it should be part of your regular routine.
Here are 10 simple yet powerful ways to practice self care this autumn:
Take A Walk Outside
Get some fresh air and vitamin D while enjoying the beautiful fall foliage. Try playing the "Outdoor ABCs" game while walking to stay present.
Print Out Your Favourite Photos
Scroll through the photos on your phone and print out a few special ones. Display them around your home to spark joy whenever you see them.Light A Candle
The soft glow of a candle creates instant calm. Choose an autumnal scent like cinnamon or pine to set the seasonal mood.
Organise a Drawer or Cupboard
Decluttering and organising a small space can make you feel more in control. It also clears physical and mental space for new blessings to enter.Schedule “Me Time”
Carve out time just for yourself in your calendar. Protect this time to do whatever nourishes your soul, without feeling guilty.
Drink Echinacea Tea
Echinacea can help boost your immune system going into cold and flu season. Sip this herbal tea daily.
Enjoy “Fika”
The Swedish tradition of taking a coffee break to slow down is great self care. Do it solo or with a friend.
Get Crafty
Let your creativity flow by knitting, painting, or anything else that ignites your passion. Crafting reduces stress.
Go Tech-Free
Leave your phone at home and go for a walk or enjoy a tech-free meal with loved ones. Disconnecting relieves stress.
Practice Gratitude
Keep a gratitude journal or share what you're thankful for at dinnertime with your family or friends. Cultivating gratitude boosts your mood.
The changing seasons are a beautiful reminder to care for yourself. Try incorporating a few of these rituals into your routine this autumn to recharge your mind, body and spirit.
