1. Start taking a vitamin D supplement: We get most of our Vitamin D from the sun, so our intake decreases when the weather is colder since we spend most of our time inside during the fall/winter seasons.
2. Take some time for yourself: Autumn and winter are the Earth’s way of telling us to slow down. Start a journal or track your moods to get more in touch with how your feeling.
3. Boost your immune system: You can do this by drinking plenty of water, washing your hands often to prevent sickness, and eating nutritious foods.
4. Get yourself ready for daylight savings time: Go to bed earlier when you can, especially the week before the clocks change. Longer periods of darkness = longer periods of sleep!
5. Buy in season foods: Beets, broccoli, cabbage, eggplant, kale, pumpkin, broths, roasted squash, roots and sautéed dark leafy greens are all great choices
