28. Ancient Wisdom for Winter: Best Practices to Stay Healthy and Thrive

As the days get shorter and the temperatures dip, do you feel your energy levels shift too? Maybe you’re waking up to darker, colder mornings, or reaching for those comforting carbs a little more often.

You’re not imagining it—seasonal changes really do affect how we feel, both physically and mentally. And the truth is, these shifts can sometimes leave us feeling drained, moody, and out of sync with our usual rhythms.

Actually, there is a reason why this happens… and that’s exactly what I’m talking about in this week’s episode of Rooted in Wellness. 

I'll break down why colder, overcast days might make you crave more warmth (and caffeine!) and how this can impact your mental clarity and motivation. Together, we’ll explore how aligning with the seasons can actually help you feel your best, even when the weather’s working against you. 

From nourishing foods that support your body’s natural rhythms, to ancient healing practices that help you stay rooted, this episode will guide you through the changes ahead.

So, if you’ve been feeling a little out of sync or just need a little guidance on how to thrive through the colder months, this episode is for you. 

Tune in to discover how to navigate this seasonal transition with more ease and energy.
