This article will explore three simple ways to get healthy this fall including taking a mindful walk, creating healthy fall snacks, and using a health & wellness bundle to help you stay on track with your well-being throughout the colder months and the year to come.

1. Go for a Crisp Autumn Walk

Grab your scarf, coat, and cute fuzzy boots if you any, bring a friend (or furry friend) and head outside to your favourite walking trail or spend some time exploring your own neighbourhood. Walking can be great exercise without even breaking a sweat, and can help to lower stress and increase feelings of relaxation.

There is something about seeing the leaves falling and those bright orange and red colours that seem to burst to life at this time of the year that can provide an energizing and renewing energy. It can also help to see the trees shedding their leaves as a sign of 'letting go' and to consider what might be helpful to let go of in our own life that has been causing us stress or hardship without much benefit.
​
"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree." ~Emily Bronte
MINDFUL WALKING PRACTICE
​
​Want to make your walk even healthier? Try a mindful meditation as you walk through the leaf-lined streets or trail. This is one of my favourite ones from Mindful.org that will help you pay attention to your surroundings and bring a sense of full awareness to your walk. Enjoy!

What a great post! It's so easy now that summer is over to give up on all the healthy things we were doing to "prepare" for summer. But changing season's is no reason to stop doing all the things we do to get healthy. They just might have to change a little. I loved the walking one!

Walking can be such great exercise, and especially peaceful when the leaves are changing colour and falling all around!

Love these helpful tips! Lol in South Africa we just welcoming in Spring, but these tips are a great way to stay healthy even in the beautiful season of spring. I personally love early morning walks, the smell of fresh air and morning dew on the grass. Hmm staying fit is a challenge in winter hey, lol those early morning walks turn up being more snuggle time in bed hahah.

The spring is a lovely time of year, too! But yes, it's definitely more difficult to feel motivated when the weather is cooler.

I find healthy snacking so much easier in the fall because I love apples! I live for when the new batch of honeycrisps hits the stores!
