✨ Returning to Yoga this Autumn ✨
As the golden light softens and leaves begin to fall 🍁, I’m drawn back to my mat. Autumn is the season of slowing down, letting go, and turning inward 🕯️.
Yoga feels different this time of year:
🌿 A grounding practice as the world shifts
🌙 A reminder to breathe deeply, even as days shorten
🔥 A way to nurture warmth from within
Each practice becomes a ritual—like sweeping the mind clear of scattered leaves 🍃 and making space for stillness, balance, and renewal.
This autumn, I’m choosing to:
🌸 Move gently, with awareness
🌸 Honor rest as much as effort
🌸 Align my inner rhythm with nature’s cycle
💭 What practices are calling you back this season?
👉 Save this as a reminder to return to what nourishes you 🌿

✨ The End of Summer Season ✨
We’re moving into that “back on track” time 🍂✏️. Kids are back at school 🎒, routines return, and maybe (like me) you’ve woken up with that back-to-school feeling!
This in-between season—until 21st September—is for reflecting, wrapping things up, and planting seeds for the future 🌱.
Signs of autumn are already here:
🌰 Acorns in pockets
🌳 Conkers & seeds falling
🍇 Hedgerows bursting with berries
☀️ The golden light reminds us that nature is slowing down 🦔. We’re called to do the same. Let go of “always pushing forward.” Some things can stay a little messy 🍃.
Instead, focus on what sustains you through the darker months and what seeds you want to plant for the future 🌙.
✨ Journal prompts:
Where did you drift off track this summer?
What needs completing before autumn arrives?
What can you start now to end the year strong?
One ritual I’ve begun: a gratitude jar 🙏. I collect acorns, seeds, feathers 🪶—symbols of what I want to nurture through autumn and winter so they grow in my life ahead 🌿.
I’m also returning to my routines: yoga 🧘, meditation 🕯️, journaling 📖, and writing ✍️ (my new passion!). These practices keep me aligned and nourished.
As the light fades, let your future dreams be the spark that keeps you glowing ✨.
💬 Affirmations:
🌸 My daily rituals and routines support me.
💖 I take care of myself and my wellbeing.
🌱 Small steps bring me closer to where I want to be.
👉 Save this for later & share with someone who loves autumn vibes 🍁✨

✨ The End of Summer Season ✨
🍂 A Time of Transition
We’re moving into that “back on track” time of year. Kids are back at school 🎒, routines return, and maybe (like me) you’ve woken up with that back-to-school feeling!
This is the in-between season—until 21st September—before autumn fully kicks in 🍁. It’s a season to reflect, wrap things up, and plant seeds for the future 🌱.
🌱 Signs of Autumn Emerging
Start noticing early signs of the changing season:
🌰 Acorns (I’ve already pocketed a few!)
🌳 Conkers & seeds falling to earth
🍇 Hedgerows bursting with berries
I’ve been foraging too: elderberries for an immune-boosting elixir 💜 and hawthorns for ketchup + tea to keep my heart strong ❤️.
☀️ Nature Slowing Down
Summer light is softening into a golden glow, and trees are showing their first shades of gold 🌾. Nature begins to slow down, let go, and prepare for hibernation 🦔.
We’re called to do the same. Don’t feel pressured to always push forward. 🍃 Like the messy piles of leaves constantly scattered by the wind, some parts of life can stay a little untidy. Let it be.
Instead, focus on what sustains you through the darker months and what seeds you want to plant for the future 🌙.
📓 Journal Prompts
Where did you drift off track this summer?
What do you need to wrap up and complete this season?
What can you start now to end the year strong?
🙏 Rituals and Routines
One new ritual I’ve started: a gratitude jar. I collect things from my walks—seeds, acorns, feathers 🪶—as symbols of what I want to nurture through autumn and winter, so they grow in my life ahead 🌿.
I’m also returning to my supportive practices:
🧘 Yoga
🕯️ Meditation
✍️ Writing (my new passion!)
📖 Journaling in the quiet, darker mornings
I carve out non-negotiable time for myself daily 🕰️ and prioritise my passion projects. (Who knows, maybe my side-hustle in writing could grow into a full-time dream! 🌟).
I’ve also enrolled in a year-long course for personal growth 🌸.
✨ Looking Ahead
As the light fades and darker months arrive, let your future dreams be the spark that keeps you glowing.
💬 Affirmations to Carry With You
🌸 My daily rituals and routines support me.
💖 I take care of myself and my wellbeing.
🌱 Small steps bring me closer to where I want to be.

I absolutely love this quote I came across today
“Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth. “. Henry David Thoreau Walden pub 1854

8 bottles of elderberry elixir. Well I made 9 but one has already been snaffled. I’m looking forward to taking this over the winter and sharing with family. 💞💜💞
