my spring reset guide

TLDR: spring clean, refresh morning routine & do some DIYs

Let me preface this: I am actually located in the Southern Hemisphere so it's not actually spring for me right now.

However, I still want to join in on the spirit of soft resets and gentler returns to lighter routines. So here are a few of my favourite things to do to have a fresh start during spring time.

always start with a spring clean

put on some soft music - I recommend laufey, lizzy mcalpine or lauv

wipe down your surfaces and mirrors with disinfectants (bonus points if they have floral or citrusy scents)

wipe the windows down so the sunlight can come into your room and then open it for a fresh breeze

change your heavy bed sheets to light spring-themed coloured linens e.g. pink gingham, light yellow daisies, sage-coloured monochrome bed sheets

check up on all your house plants by misting them with water or cutting dead leaves off to refresh them for the new growing season

2. refresh your morning routine

open the curtains as soon as you wake up so that the sunlight can warm your room

do a 5 minute stretch in bed or in front of the window on your floor for some morning sunshine

drink warm lemon water with honey or green tea with honey in a cute cup as your morning beverage (I like to sometimes add frozen passionfruit into the water for a boost of vitamin C)

do a bit of journaling with spring-related prompts outside of your house e.g. what parts of myself am I ready to grow this season? what does a 'fresh start' mean to me?

3. do some hands-on activities

do some spring-themed baking - lemon shortcake, bunny-shaped sugar cookies, carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, strawberry cheesecake cookies

press dried flowers and stick them in your journal, labelling the type of flower and dating when you collected them

create a satchet of dried lavenders or roses to put under your pillow or in your closet for a constant fresh smell

start a small vegetable garden by planting some carrots, tomatoes, peas etc.

try cutting flowers and learning how to arrange a bouquet so that you can always have fresh flowers in your room

Remember that you are not behind, spring doesn't rush to bloom, and neither should you🌷
