New Season, New You
Fall Wellness Tips to Embrace the Season
Fall is a powerful time to realign. The energy shifts. The pace slows. And suddenly, structure feels supportive again. If summer felt more playful and fluid, fall invites us back into rhythm—with our bodies, our habits, and our goals. This isn’t about restriction or starting over. It’s about making simple, seasonal upgrades that bring you back into your power.
Take Your Cardio Outdoors
My favorite! Crisp mornings and golden leaves? There’s no better time to walk, jog, hike, or bike outside. This is low-intensity cardio that boosts your recovery, supports fat metabolism, and clears your mind—without the burnout of high-impact training. Ditch the treadmill and head outdoors for sunshine, cooler air and that great fall feeling. Great for mind, body and soul!
Swap Your Iced Lattes for Warm, Nourishing Drinks
The iced matcha may have served you in July (hello, summer heat!)—but fall is the time to cozy up. Transition to warm beverages like collagen lattes, hot teas or black coffee with cinnamon. These support digestion and ground your nervous system. Bonus points if you sip them slowly, without a screen. Also, don’t miss out on collagen! I add mine to morning coffee, iced lattes and protein smoothies. Flavorless and EASILY adds 20 grams of nourishing protein.
Build Heat From Within (and Recover With It Too)
Strength training + sauna = fall magic. Your body craves warmth and circulation during seasonal shifts. After a workout, use a hot bath or infrared sauna to soothe inflammation and reset your nervous system. Think of it as muscle recovery and mood therapy. Even 10 minutes in the sauna post-workout is enough to boost metabolism, begin to sweat out impurities and activate detoxification. Trust me — once you make it 10 minutes you will feel motivated to shift to a few weekly 20 minute sessions.
Shift Into a More Consistent Sleep Schedule
Shorter days are your cue to double down on rest. Sleep is the best recovery — and you should be maximizing your opportunities to recharge. Try going to bed 30–60 minutes earlier to sync with the natural light cycles of fall. Sleep isn’t just a recovery tool—it’s an overall performance enhancer. You lift heavier, focus deeper and crave less sugar when sleep is solid.
Eat with the Season, Fuel with Intention
Your body is smart—it responds to seasonality. Lean into root vegetables, warming spices, roasted meals, and grounding foods. Keep protein high to support strength goals, and use fall’s natural rhythm to eat slower and more intentionally.
