Enjoy Yourself More this Season

 

While fall is often a busy time of year, it’s also a favorite thanks to a change in weather, brightly colored leaves, and pumpkin-spiced everything.

Since the holidays will be here before we know it, today, we’re sharing some of our favorite ways to slow down and enjoy this special season.

Here are 6 ways to make your fall even happier:

1. Visit your local farmers’ market and stock up on all the best foods this season has to offer.

2. Connect with your inner child and make a date to go to a pumpkin patch.

3. Cozy up with a new book like Our Missing Hearts by Celeste Ng (author of the bestseller Little Fires Everywhere), out this month.

4. Get outdoors and take in the crispy air. Enjoy a hike or apple picking while you can.

5. Try out a new, warming recipe, whether it’s something sweet like this Cinnamon Sugar Swirled Apple Butter Bread, or savory like this Pumpkin White Bean Chicken Chili.

6. Take a walk or drive and enjoy the autumn foliage. Marvel at the changing leaves in all their reddish and yellow hues.

While fall can be busy, it’s truly a special time of year. Take advantage of everything this season has to offer and enjoy!

These days, many of us are so pressed for time that we give ourselves few moments to do what actually excites us. But even if your day feels impossibly stuffed, you can make time for what really matters.
