Fall is in full swing (well, in some cities...) 🍂

September 22nd brought the Autumnal Equinox signifying a change of season, and what better time to reset. Choose a new wellness goal or dig deeper into your current wellness routine.

Do you make new goals for yourself each season? Or even air out the house, rearrange furniture, do a quick or deep clean?

Being based in Nashville, it can be pretty dang hot here in the summer. Finally, the evenings are cooling down, and it's been a great time to take a daily walk after dinner. Take some breaths and spend time outside thinking.

What does your wellness routine look like before the holidays?

Heard a gentle reminder recently to slow down and find rest because the trees take half the year off, and bears hibernate. We too deserve to relax and recover. Take pause.

Maybe spend a little time with nature, sitting on the porch, in a hammock, at the park…

Summer is coming to an end, but plants are still thriving. 🌱

There are so many natural ways to care for your home, yard and to thwart pests without chemicals and pesticides! Have you tried mint plants to deter squirrels, rodents and other little varmint? They don't like the minty aroma - and your family is not exposed to toxic chemicals!

9. HAVE A STRONG REASON FOR LIVING

We often wonder what our purpose in life may be. This reaches beyond the desire to keep going - to just be alive. Find your meaning to live, and you’ll find a powerful reason to live WELL. Throughout life, that meaning may change, and that's okay!

What’s YOUR reason for waking up each day? No matter how small. Whatever it is, it’s good medicine!

8. RADICALLY CHANGE YOUR DIET

Eat organic where it counts. Increase plant-based foods. Reduce consumption of processed foods. Limit alcohol. Omit sweets. Increase your intake of fresh vegetables and fruit.

Every BODY is different and requires (to a degree) a variety of nutrients to function optimally. With many food allergies and sensitivities out there, it may do your body good to try new things. Really think about what goes in your body as much as you think about what's happening outside of your body.

7. EMBRACE SOCIAL SUPPORT

This is a BIGGIE! Social support plays a leading role in healing. If available, turn to loved ones, immediate and extended family, friends, colleagues, online communities. Find support groups and professionals. Forget suffering in silence or going at it alone.

Define what social support means to you.
