Cold days can make everything feel heavier.
Try gentle survival strategies this winter.
Warm food. Earlier nights. Lower expectations. More rest than you think you need.
This season is about getting through, not doing more.

Every month needs balance, not perfection.
Try giving yourself five different kinds of days
A no plans day - set boundaries, say no and do absolutley nothing
An adulting day -
Pay bills, clean, do the food shop, tackle that to-do list,
A family and friends day- Quality time with the people you love.
An inner child day - Do something fun and creative and just for you.
A self care day - Long shower, skincare, meditate. Whatever fuels you.
Life works better when you stop expecting one day to meet every need.

For many teachers and education staff, this week means stepping back into the classroom.
If you are feeling tired, overwhelmed, or not quite ready, that is completely normal.
Be kind to yourself as you return. You do not have to carry everything perfectly.

On January 11th, people around the world are switching off for the day.
Thousands of people around the world will ditch their phones and laptops for 24 hours.

No scrolling. No pressure. Just slowing down and reconnecting with themselves and others.
Why not be one of them?

Even a few hours offline can help your mind breathe again.
