Simple Tips to Ease the Seasonal Transition

October, we're in love with you.

How beautiful has this breezy sunshine felt? Suddenly the wind shifts and an autumnal magic has permeated the coastal air.

Alas, the fall shift also brings declining daylight and a looming grey forecast. Whether you rejoice in the return of routine and hibernation - or long for an endless summer - here are a few ways to weather the fall transition...

  • Reflect on your most memorable summer experiences and what made you feel blissfully at peace. Try to channel those thoughts and emotions into the moments of your day that might seem tedious or tough to pull through. If visuals help, print a collective of hard copy memories to post at your work space.

  • Consider a Himalayan salt lamp for enhancing negative ions and mood balance. Use grounding essential oils that promote clarity and concentration (like clary sage, peppermint, cypress, vetiver).

  • Listen to soothing music. Perhaps the "Pumpkin Spice State of Mind" playlist?

  • Carve out time for plant-powered meal prep and nourishing fall dishes. Try a blended coconut curry cauliflower soup, hearty veggie chili bowl or creamy pumpkin pie smoothie. 

  • Integrate time to 'do you'. If you've entered a new school year or the post-summer work swing, remember to prioritize your well-being. With 24 hours in a day, strive to dedicate at least 30-60 minutes for mindful activity.

  • On the flipside, don't beat yourself up for leaving your to-do list unchecked, missing a workout or sleeping in past yoga. Give yourself a chance to transition and flow into the new season.

  • Scope out some fall-inspired activities before plunging into full hermit mode. Check out your local listings for seasonal markets, art exhibits, mushroom foraging, live music and community events. Then cozy up with a paperback or old wistful flick (Harry Potter, anyone/everyone? Just me?).

  • Connect with nature. Even if this means bundling up for a trail run, wearing wool socks to the beach or a fleece shell on a stand-up paddle board. Spending QT in our PNW playground helps clear the mind and replenish the spirit away from screens.

Happy autumn!
