Now that Autumn is in full swing and the leaves have started to change colors, it's time to adjust your lifestyle to fit the season. As the days get shorter and the temperature drops, it can be easy to fall into a rut. Follow these tips to make this Fall healthier and more productive!

 

 

Staying Active 🚶‍♀️

 

It can be hard to keep up your summer fitness routine during the colder seasons. A fun way to keep yourself and your family active is to visit your local pumpkin patch. Walking around the fields and lifting those heavy pumpkins is a sure way to get you moving. Another Autumn-inspired adventure is solving a corn maize. You can throw in some friendly competition with your friends & family to see who can complete the maize first. All the fast walking & problem solving will aid your physical health and keep your brain working.

 

Giving Back this Fall 🤝

 

Autumn is the season of giving back. As you reflect on what you're thankful for, take some time to also volunteer in your community. Even the simplest task of dropping of cans to your local food drive can make a large impact. Helping others and making a difference will make your Fall more rewarding.

 

Seasonal Foods to Indulge 🍽

With all of the holiday gatherings, there's bound to be some delicious, but not-so-healthy food options. It's okay to treat yourself to pumpkin pie or your other favorite Fall dessert. However, you should be incorporating some of the healthier Autumn foods. Some of the healthy vegetables that are in-season during Fall are squash, zucchini, pumpkin, kale, and beets. So when preparing your Thanksgiving feast, consider adding in some of these healthy vegetables to your recipes. Autumn is also the perfect time for hot drinks ☕️ Instead of going with a Pumpkin Spice Latte or sugary hot chocolate, try a herbal tea.

 

Layering 🧤

 

Just because it isn't below freezing doesn't mean you should skip the extra layers. It's easy to underestimate the weather and overestimate our immune systems. Bringing your extra jacket and pair of gloves along is a great way to fight a seasonal cold. As a bankruptcy attorney, you're constantly needed at the office or in court. Avoid getting sick so you won't miss a thing for your clients.
