Happy Fall
 

Every fall should be designed to be a new start beginning after summer ends. A time to slow down and embrace a soft and cozy life in late September and October. Living a soft life during the autumn season is a form of self-care. Life is so busy but fall is a reset so treat it like a job. Your job requires you to have dedicated time for tasks. Activities, self-care, and spending time in nature are all part of fall. As we return to routine, we fully embrace femininity, seasonal joy, and intentional living. Fall is made as a fresh start before the winter arc. Don't let anything hold you back from enjoying the season. There is more to it than just aesthetics, as they are helpful as well. It’s more of a mindset and lifestyle that supports peace, comfort, pleasure, and self-worth.
