Welcome & Introduction: Discussing the seasonal transition from summer to autumn and how it impacts our bodies, minds, and overall wellness.

Adapting Your Wellness Routine:

  1. Nourish with Seasonal Foods: Embrace autumn’s harvest with nutrient-rich foods like pumpkins, butternut squash, and dark leafy greens. Warming spices like cinnamon and turmeric for an anticancer lifestyle.
  2. Seasonal Exercise: Move with intention through outdoor activities like brisk walks and hikes or indoor yoga and strength training to support mental clarity and immune function.
  3. Prioritize Sleep: Embrace longer nights by establishing a restful bedtime routine for deeper, more restorative sleep.
  4. Mental Health: Mindfulness practices like meditation, journaling, and nature walks to combat stress and foster reflection.
  5. Boost Your Immune System: Support with seasonal foods, supplements (Vitamin D, C, Zinc), hydration, and staying active.

Holistic Self-Care Practices:

  1. Create a Cozy Home Environment: Add warm, soft touches to your living space for relaxation and declutter to create mental clarity.
  2. Stay Connected: Maintain social connections to boost emotional health, and consider joining the health and wellness community for ongoing support.
