Autumn Self-Care Tips to Boost Your Mood, In Drawings.

Fall Is Here: Time For A Little Autumn Self Care!

This one is for you if you tend to suffer from the autumn blues. Even though this season is known as the coziest season, it can also be easy to feel a bit down during this time. With the days getting darker and the weather colder (not to mention everything else going on in the world) it can be harder to stay positive.

Here, I illustrated, some of the things that help me during the darker days. I hope they will be helpful for you as well.

First of all, I try to stay active and get enough daylight and exercise. I love long autumn walks. I also do some at home yoga and weight lifting. If I’m staying inside I make an effort to cozy up my home as much as possible. I light candles and other warm lights, burn incense for a nice smell and listen (and sometimes dance) to my favorite music. Sometimes I’ll be working on a creative project, other times I love to relax with a book or a nice show or movie to watch.

What are you doing this autumn to stay positive and happy? Feel free to let me know in the comments. I’m curious to know.

Want More Self Care Inspiration?

For those of you who would like a permanent positive reminder to keep in your home, I have two of my self care drawings available as a postcard on Etsy. You can choose between Take Care and Mental Health Plan . Keep it for yourself or send it to a loved one who could use it.

PS. You can also follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for more regular updates and a look into my daily life.

Self Care Day Ideas, In Drawings.

Happy International Self Care Day! Self care has always been important, but this year I think we all can use some extra time to focus on things that make us feel more relaxed and happy. In this illustration I drew some of the things that are helpful to me. What do you like to do to give yourself some extra care?

Self Care Reminder

Update: I got a lot of requests to make my self care drawings available on Etsy. That’s why I now have Take Care and Mental Health Plan cards in my shop.
