Winter feels slower, darker, and honestly… heavier.
The cold mornings, grey skies, and less movement leave me feeling off.
Some days I feel like I’ve lost my usual rhythm, especially with my body.
This season can bring on seasonal sadness or just a general blah feeling—and if you’re feeling it too, you’re not alone. I’m learning to embrace the shift instead of fighting it. Here’s what’s helping me:
✨ 1. Moving gently, not perfectly
Even 10 minutes of stretching, walking, or yoga at home counts. I’ve stopped chasing intense workouts and started asking my body, “What feels good today?”
🫖 2. Making rituals cosy, not complicated
Lighting a candle, sipping a warm drink, journaling in the mornings—these small rituals anchor me when the days feel heavy. Winter is an invitation to slow down, not shut down.
🌤 3. Getting outside, even if it’s cloudy
Fresh air and natural light (even when it’s not sunny!) help so much with mood and energy. I aim to step out once a day—no pressure, just a gentle reset.
Winter isn’t here to punish us—it’s a reminder to rest, recalibrate, and care for ourselves differently.
