7 Ideas to Craft Your Autumn Self-Care Toolbox
Energetically, fall is a season of letting go, going inward, grounding, tapping into your spirituality and soaking up all the magic. Here are seven simple ideas to craft your autumn self-care toolbox so you can take care of you this season.
- Practice Root Chakra Balancing: Balance your root chakra with slow meditative walks outside, grounding foods like root vegetables and connecting with Mother Earth. Consider purchasing some black tourmaline, a healing stone which can be particularly grounding and protective.
- Take Grounding Breaths: When you feel yourself getting flighty and in your head, take slow, intentional breaths to assist in grounding your mind, body and soul.
- Utilize Earth Essential Oils: Earthy essential oils like patchouli, Frankincense, and calming lavender can be especially comforting this season.
- Cook with Seasonal Produce: Hit the local farmer’s market and cook a wholesome, farm-fresh meal with seasonal produce items like sweet potatoes, spaghetti squash, beets, apples, pears and brussels sprouts.
- Relax with a Cozy Bath: Soak up that much-needed me-time with an unplugged bath, complete with your favorite relaxing tunes, essential oils, and healing stones.
- Gather with Friends & Family: Autumn is a season of connecting with dear friends and loved ones who make you feel your best self, while being mindful of who/what you give your energy to. Consider hosting a Friendsgiving or potluck dinner party — complete with speciality cocktails, homemade food and twinkly lights for ambiance.
- Write in a Gratitude Journal: Being thankful doesn’t have to be reserved for Thanksgiving. Regularly counting your blessings and expressing your gratitude helps cultivate feelings of love, allowing more abundance to flow in your life.
