Self-Soothing to Rest and Reset

Coming back from a sunny holiday in Cyprus to chilly, wet Manchester has reminded me just how much the change in seasons can affect us.

This week, I’m talking all about soothing yourself—how we can nurture and take care of ourselves as we head into autumn.

I used to struggle with the darker, colder days, but now I’m embracing them as a time for self-care. From comforting soups and turmeric lattes to a simple walk in nature, there are so many small ways to soothe and uplift ourselves.

Plus, I’ve got a few gems from Venus Williams’ new book Strive, where she talks about the art of soothing, which really resonated with me. So, if you’re feeling a bit out of sorts or need some inspiration for how to nurture yourself during this time of year, this episode is for you!

Here are the highlights:
