Feel Good Fall

"Things to do..." while having a great season

Everything happened so fast! We vacationed, enjoyed the beach, danced at rooftop parties, and tried new things! And since the season is starting to change, it's time to retreat and hibernate. While watching the leaves paint beautiful pictures on trees will be a joy, let's not fully retreat. Let's dive into pressing reset and start focusing on ourselves.

While we put away those summer shorts, we also find bad habits to put away. New seasons come around for a reason, and they serve as a pleasurable reminder to reassess our goals and realign ourselves on the right path.

Make a list of what you want to accomplish this season:
- What did I accomplish last season?
- What am I doing now to move me forward?
- What is cluttering my mind and throwing me off focus?
- What small steps can I start taking?
​- What activities can I do without? 
​- What can I replace these activities with to help me reach my goals?

As you list out these items, remember to be kind to yourself. You're not critiquing, you're taking inventory of what you need and what you can let go of. This is a journey of self-discovery and growth, and it's okay to be gentle with yourself along the way. 

While refocusing, schedule self-care and a little reading time to keep your mind balanced. Don't fall into the myth of over-working yourself to succeed.

"Feel Good Fall" is here and we are ready to step into a new season with our heads held HIGH!
