seasonal habits for wellness

​Although I enjoy all four seasons, autumn has a special place in my heart. Apart from its colourful landscapes, I enjoy the shift in light, and the anticipation of the darker months ahead. I sleep better, and enjoy transforming the bountiful harvest into warm and nourishing meals. 

Here are my tips to sailing thru the fall season with a sense of balance and overall wellbeing:

1) Get outside during daylight even if the sun is not shining. It will help balance your melatonin, make you feel energized and improve your sleep.

2) Allow yourself some meaningful ways to rest and relax (away from screens.) My favourite way to do so is by attending a Restorative Yoga class. It truly helps combat the physical and mental stresses of everyday life.

3) Eat warming food such as stews, soups, homemade broth and warm salads. My Delicata squash and arugula salad is easy to make, delicious, and nourishing.

I hope you will find these tips helpful and I wish you a wonderful fall season!
