Spring into Wellness: A Mum's Guide to Embracing the Seasonal Shift with the family

As we fast approach Spring, a season of renewal, Holistic Health Coach, Claudia Dumond provides her top tips on how to cultivate wellness as a family.

Spring is a season of renewal, offering us the opportunity to shed the heaviness of winter and embrace a fresh start filled with vitality and energy. So, let's embark on a journey together to harness the transformative power of spring and cultivate wellness for ourselves and our families.
 
Reconnect with Nature: As we start to shift out of our winter slumber, let's take advantage of the longer days and warmer weather to spend more time outdoors with our families. Plan family hikes in the countryside, picnics in the park, or nature scavenger hunts to explore the beauty of springtime together. Not only will this help us soak up much-needed vitamin D, but it will also boost our mood and strengthen our bonds with our children.
 
Revamp Your Family's Plate: In spring, nature awakens with a bounty of fresh, vibrant fruits and vegetables that are not only delicious but also packed with essential nutrients. From asparagus & spinach to delicious red strawberries, these are just a few examples of the healthy seasonal fruits and vegetables that spring has to offer. Go strawberry picking for a fun, family activity, get your kids involved in meal planning and prep, and encourage them to try new fruits and vegetables bursting with colour and flavour. 
 
Spring Cleaning Rituals: Spring cleaning is not only an opportunity to declutter and refresh your home but also a chance to invite positive energy and harmony into your space. Clear the clutter to make space for fresh energy, find ways to bring nature indoors; add wooden furniture for warmth and grounding, incorporate candles for energy and add plants for stability and growth. 
 
Vibrant energy of spring: Infuse your home with the vibrant energy of spring by incorporating colours that represent renewal and growth. Get the paint brush out with the kids and bring in soft greens, gentle blues, sunny yellows, and delicate pinks in perfect spaces and places. They are all associated with the awakening of springtime and can be used to evoke feelings of freshness and vitality.
 
Set Springtime Intentions: Harness the energy of the season to set positive intentions for yourself and your family. Whether it's prioritizing quality time together, embracing healthier habits, or fostering a more mindful approach to daily life, take time to reflect on your goals and aspirations for the season ahead. By setting clear intentions and taking intentional action steps, you'll empower yourself and your family to create a springtime filled with joy, growth, and abundance.

Self-Care Splurges: As a busy mum, it's essential to prioritise self-care and make time for moments of rest and rejuvenation. Treat yourself to small indulgences like a leisurely bubble bath, a cosy movie night with your favourite snacks, or a quiet afternoon curled up with a good book. Remember, self-care isn't selfish – it's a vital act of self-love that replenishes your energy and nourishes your soul. Making sure you’re ready to tackle the busy days ahead.
 
By embracing the season of renewal and incorporating these wellness practices into your daily life, you'll not only nourish your body and soul but also create a foundation for a happy, healthy, and vibrant springtime ahead with the family. Here's to a spring filled with sunshine, laughter, and wonderful connections with the family!
