00:00:08.900 --> 00:00:10.700
Welcome to the Me, Myself, and You podcast.

1
00:00:10.700 --> 00:00:14.600
My name is Sara and I'm your host and I'm really glad to have you here today.

2
00:00:15.300 --> 00:00:18.200
I don't know about you, but I'm really excited that it's October.

3
00:00:18.500 --> 00:00:20.600
I kind of love it.

4
00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:22.400
I'm a I'm a fall fan.

5
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:23.800
Maybe I'm basic.

6
00:00:23.900 --> 00:00:25.400
I don't know I guess today.

7
00:00:25.400 --> 00:00:28.900
I wanted to share some just fall themed self-care ideas.

8
00:00:29.300 --> 00:00:34.700
Probably be a short and sweet one, but I think it can be really fun to kind of have some.

9
00:00:34.900 --> 00:00:44.000
Ami self-care things to do in the fall or in whatever season to really just like indulge in the feeling of this season.

10
00:00:44.100 --> 00:00:48.900
So let's run through those first off DIY projects.

11
00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:55.000
I personally think that DIY projects are a very like fall/winter thing.

12
00:00:55.100 --> 00:01:03.839
It's just like a cozy thing to do inside maybe it's doing blankets or throw pillows or crafts for Christmas gifts, whatever it

13
00:01:03.839 --> 00:01:04.599
might be.

14
00:01:04.800 --> 00:01:13.200
Be dig into those DIY projects next baking I think baking is such a fun part of fall for me.

15
00:01:13.300 --> 00:01:16.200
My mom used to make pumpkin muffins every single year.

16
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:23.630
She still does there are much healthier version now still good, but she'll make those every single fall and it's like this very

17
00:01:23.630 --> 00:01:24.600
just special thing.

18
00:01:24.600 --> 00:01:28.600
So baking things like that cinnamon rolls just goodies.

19
00:01:28.600 --> 00:01:37.245
I just for me that has all the fall Vibes and can be a very like, what's the Word therapeutic experience to bake to measure and

20
00:01:37.245 --> 00:01:41.900
just use your hands and that kind of thing same with the DIY projects.

21
00:01:41.900 --> 00:01:45.300
It can just be this very therapeutic activity.

22
00:01:46.100 --> 00:01:55.702
And then you guys know I've talked about how I personally think bubble baths can very much still be self-care bubble baths face

23
00:01:55.702 --> 00:02:02.800
masks all those I think I've said froofy type self-care things can definitely 100% be self care.

24
00:02:02.900 --> 00:02:10.400
It's just that you also have to keep in mind those really basic self-care things that are truly like working on yourself.

25
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:11.300
In addition.

26
00:02:11.600 --> 00:02:21.600
I think in the fall, it's really fun to do a very like autumnal bubble bath spa night type situation for like getting all cozied

27
00:02:21.600 --> 00:02:25.200
up and just enjoying it all the fall things.

28
00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:35.600
So for me that might include things like a fall scented candle and some cozy pjs and fuzzy socks I used Read in the bathtub all

29
00:02:35.600 --> 00:02:36.400
the time.

30
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:38.000
I don't love our bathtub here.

31
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:45.400
I would really like a big bathtub may be a fun fall beverage you could do like it depends.

32
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:46.500
How cold it is where you are.

33
00:02:46.500 --> 00:02:47.900
It's hot still in Texas.

34
00:02:47.900 --> 00:02:59.420
Usually so depending on the day, but that could be something like a apple or Ginger or cinnamon based drink or tea or whatever

35
00:02:59.420 --> 00:03:02.300
something a little seasonal and fun.

36
00:03:02.500 --> 00:03:04.700
I personally am a huge fan.

37
00:03:04.700 --> 00:03:11.400
Fan of the pumpkin cream cold birthings from the Starbucks.

38
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:13.200
I love those.

39
00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:15.900
They're so much better than the pumpkin spice lattes.

40
00:03:15.900 --> 00:03:21.100
Like I don't know what you're doing drinking those pumpkin spice lattes when this cold brew exists.

41
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:23.200
I'm sorry, but it's true.

42
00:03:23.600 --> 00:03:28.300
And then personally I like to do my nails and a fun like fall color.

43
00:03:28.300 --> 00:03:38.252
I really like the dark Reds and you know, you can do black you could do like a gold would be fun and Obviously like lotion and

44
00:03:38.252 --> 00:03:47.100
bath products and fun fall sense and really just like envelop yourself in the Cozy Vibes I guess is my point with this one.

45
00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:54.900
Um, I don't know so I think these are definitely some fun starting points for some fall-themed self-care ideas.

46
00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:03.275
I know in Texas another great thing to do in the fall for self-care is walking because it's finally starts to cool down a little

47
00:04:03.275 --> 00:04:04.600
bit sort of special.

48
00:04:04.700 --> 00:04:12.155
Late fall, it can be a really great time to actually get outside and do things outside because it's not miserably hot in

49
00:04:12.155 --> 00:04:14.100
addition to all of these thoughts.

50
00:04:14.100 --> 00:04:22.511
I have a blog post that has these ideas as well and it has links to some DIY projects and links to some products and recipes

51
00:04:22.511 --> 00:04:25.100
that you can try all of those things.

52
00:04:25.100 --> 00:04:27.800
So definitely check that blog post out.

53
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:29.100
I think it has the same title.

54
00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:35.930
It's like ball team self-care ideas something like that check that out if you need to see some links to Get your brain going,

55
00:04:35.930 --> 00:04:40.200

56
00:04:40.200 --> 00:04:40.800
