I’ll be the first to admit I’m not good with change. And this in-limbo transition from summer to fall is not doing me any favors. While I love a sun-kissed glow as much as the next girl, I could do without the triple-digit heat we’re bracing for in LA, seasonal allergies, and overall fatigue.
As we begin our September, I can only hope that sweater weather suddenly appears with the drop of all things pumpkin-spice-flavored at Trader Joe’s. I’m ready to say au revoir to hot girl summer and welcome all the cozy fall feels with open arms—give me all the fuzzy blankets! From switching up how I sweat it out to how I care for my skin, I’m spicing up my wellness routine this fall. Read on for five simple summer-to-fall swaps to hit reset and embrace the season ahead.  

1. Reassess your workouts 
A new season is a perfect time to reassess what type of movement is working for you. Your body needs different things at different times, so taking the time to update your workout is crucial. If you’re going through the motions with your hot girl walk routine, it may be time to switch things up. Try adding a pair of wrist weights to level up your current workout. Or, switch up your workout itself by introducing intervals of lunges, push-ups, or squats into your routine. If you enjoy running, try changing up your route.
When the crisp autumn air finally hits, take it inside and try a new workout on obé Fitness. If your body is craving more low-intensity workouts than high-energy exercises, channel your inner Hailey Bieber and become a Pilates girl. No matter what your workout routine looks like or what your body is craving this time of year, take the time to check in with yourself and do what feels best for you. 
If there’s ever a good excuse to get some new workout clothes, it’s a change in seasons. There’s no denying a new workout ‘fit puts a pep in your step—and makes it harder to skip the gym to rewatch Gilmore Girls for the umpteenth time. So don’t be left in the cold (literally) in a sports bra and biker shorts. Work in a pair of new leggings or, better yet, a matching set that screams fall (think: olive greens, mauves, and browns) into your activewear rotation.

2. Revamp your skincare regimen 
PSL season means it’s time to start thinking about layering more than just our clothing. That’s right. I’m talking about your skincare products, ladies! Sub out your lightweight summer products for richer creams and serums to avoid the dry skin that accompanies cooler weather. That’s not to say you need to overhaul your entire skincare routine—a few minor adjustments will do the trick.
Start by swapping your gel cleanser and moisturizer for cream-based alternatives. Opt for a serum with hyaluronic acid. These quick swaps will help lock in moisture. Consider adding vitamin C oil to boost your skin’s antioxidants and achieve a J.Lo-esque glow. Keep your SPF on hand because those UV rays are still strong in the colder months. As tempting as it may be to slough off any dry, flaky skin, cut down on exfoliating if you’re prone to irritation, and forgo products with fragrance and alcohol. Oh, and don’t forget to hydrate the rest of your body to limit any itchiness that the drop in humidity can bring.

3. Reach for local, in-season fall produce 
Eating what’s in season not only provides your body with more nutrients but also helps you save money and the environment. So, what foods should you be stocking up on come fall? Opt for fruits like apples, pears, and citrus fruits, along with root veggies like squashes, pumpkins, and sweet potatoes. This time of year, these fruits and veggies are preferable to raw, cooling foods like smoothies and salads. To round out a well-balanced diet, load up on healthy fats (think: coconut oil, avocado, and nuts) and warming spices, such as cinnamon, ginger, turmeric, and cumin. From soups to pasta to desserts, there’s no shortage of fall recipes that are as comforting as they are nourishing. Bottom line: Fill your plate with warm, grounding foods à la Ayurvedic practices to keep your body healthy and balanced. 

4. Re-establish a consistent sleep schedule 
With the buzz and laid-back vibes of summer, my beauty rest hasn’t exactly been on point. (Those under-eye bags don’t lie.) In anticipation of the shorter days ahead, getting our healthy sleep habits back on track is especially important. Getting quality rest requires waking up at the same time every morning, making sunlight your first order of business daily, prioritizing movement, keeping your bedroom at a cool 65 degrees (give or take), and creating a healthy pre-bedtime routine. And, no, that routine does not include binge-watching. Incorporating some light reading or journaling can do wonders to quiet your mind for a restful night’s sleep.

5. Marie-Kondo your life
Who says sprucing up your home is reserved for spring? It turns out that taking a page out of Monica Gellar’s book can improve your mood, reduce stress, and increase productivity. So with the onset of autumn, take the time to declutter and clean your space for the sake of your physical and mental health.  
What better time to slow down and look inward than this seasonal shift from summer to fall? As we prepare for the new season, it’s the ideal time to let go of what’s no longer serving us. Ask yourself, “What’s weighing you down?” Consider what may be holding you back in your health, career, and relationships. It may even be helpful to write this out. Then, shed any limiting habits, thoughts, and fears to make room for new energy and opportunities. In other words, “Out with the old, in with the new.” Once you’ve released this baggage, set new intentions and create a clear path to follow through with them. Could you use more self-care? Pare down your to-do list, leaving only the necessary tasks, meetings, and appointments. This will allow you time to focus on your well-being. 

How To Get Out of End-of-Summer Health Slump More

There’s something magical about this time of year: the nostalgia of back-to-school vibes, crackling fires, pumpkins taking up residence on every doorstep, crisp weather, and foliage so beautiful you’d think it was fake. I love fall, but after the initial excitement of pumpkin-flavored drinks and sweater weather wears off, the shorter days and chilly temperatures can leave me feeling physically and mentally drained. If this is the case for you too, you’re not alone. As the season changes, it’s natural for our moods to shift too. Experts have confirmed that a decrease in daylight can affect our sleep, energy levels, and social ability.
While it’s important to take steps to protect your mental health all year round, the change in seasons may require extra support to prevent the fall and winter blues from setting in (if you struggle with mental health concerns, it is always best to consult with your primary care provider or a licensed therapist or counselor). This year, I’ve decided to make a commitment to protect my mental health by engaging in rituals that support me in a positive way. Ahead are seven wellness rituals you can implement now for a happiness boost that will last the entire upcoming season.

1. Pick up a new hobby
As the weather outside turns frightful (pun intended), we spend more time indoors. And if you’re anything like me, this means you tend to spend a lot more time mindlessly scrolling, making you feel less energized. As you cozy up inside this fall, consider putting down your phone and picking up a new hobby. Hobbies help to relieve stress while providing a creative outlet. As an added bonus, hobbies can also allow you to connect with people in your community who share your interests and even perform better at work. So whether it is picking up an instrument, learning to knit, or trying a new workout, there’s something for everyone to try this fall. 

2. Spend time in nature 
Summer might be ending but it doesn’t mean your hot girl walks have to. Regardless of the season, it’s been proven that spending time in nature boosts mood, eases stress, and helps increase confidence. Bundle up in your favorite fall layers to enjoy walks or workouts outside. And if you’re looking for more ways to reap the benefits of nature, consider taking advantage of fall-themed activities, such as hiking, apple picking, corn mazes, and pumpkin patches.

3. Try a new recipe
I could go on and on about how much I love to cook and bake in the fall. Call me basic, (cheugy?) but I will take all the pumpkin and apple-flavored foods. When it comes to fall cooking, I feel like the possibilities are truly endless to create comforting and nourishing meals. Take this as your sign to try out new fall recipes. By making it a point to try a new recipe each week, you create intention, inviting purpose and something to look forward to, which can be energizing and inspiring. Better yet, invite your friends over to cook together or consider starting a monthly cookbook club and take turns hosting. 

4. Find something to look forward to 
Having something to look forward to can not only increase happiness, but also make you feel more creative and productive. But that doesn’t mean you have to go on a luxurious vacation or plan a huge party. This fall, try planning experiences with your friends or family, such as a Halloween costume party, pumpkin carving contest, football watch party, or Friendsgiving, to help build anticipation in a positive way. And on a smaller scale, take the time to make your morning cup of coffee or work outfit exciting, which will also give you a happiness boost.

5. Do a fall clean
You’ve heard of spring cleaning, but what about fall cleaning? Much like the leaves falling, the changing season is the perfect time to let go of what’s no longer serving you. Consider this your moment to go full Marie-Kondo-meets-The-Home-Edit and clear away items you no longer use, wear, or need. Check out local organizations in your community to see if there are ways for you to donate old items or organize a clothing swap with friends. And aside from physical objects, fall is also a great time to check in on your inner self and reflect on the current year and the months ahead. Are you meeting your goals? What habits are you looking to form? What behaviors are no longer serving you? Dive in to make the last few months of the year the best ones yet. 

6. Bring the outside in
As we spend more time indoors, it’s easy to start to feel a little stir-crazy. We know that spending time in nature is great for our mental health, but did you know having elements of nature in your home can have similar effects? Some studies have found that interacting with indoor plants or incorporating natural elements in a room can help reduce stress and anxiety. Luckily, fall decor leans heavily on natural elements (dried flowers, wreaths, pumpkins, etc.), so those fall essentials you’ve been eyeing may be more than just cute decorations. If pumpkins and gourds aren’t really your thing, try moving your desk chair next to a window for more sunlight exposure, adding indoor plants and pictures of the great outdoors to your space, or burning scented candles or using diffusers that smell like the outdoors to help improve your mental health. 

7. Prioritize rest 
When the days get shorter, it’s natural to feel more tired. You shouldn’t push through it or get down on yourself for feeling less energized and productive. Take a cue from nature and use this time to prioritize rest–physically and mentally. Getting enough sleep is proven to help strengthen our immune systems, which is something we can all benefit from this time of year. Make it a point to create a consistent sleep schedule that works for you, and if your sleep is already in check, find other ways to protect your energy this season. That could mean choosing your commitments wisely, spending less time mindlessly scrolling, or cultivating more self-love.

5 Habits of the Happiest Women I Know More

As a wellness editor and holistic health coach, I consider myself well-versed in many things: plant-based eating, ancient medicinal practices, and self-love. However, the topic I get asked about most often is wellness supplements–what to take, when to take them, and what’s actually worth it. The interest in vitamins and supplements makes total sense to me: the supplement industry is confusing AF. We have countless brands, influencers, and experts telling us a magic pill is life-changing or a new powder on the market will have miraculous results. Identifying what we really need in a market filled with expensive miracle powders and magic pills is challenging.
So, I’m sharing my supplement routine to serve as inspiration. I thoroughly research every brand, ingredient, and trendy new product and have tried countless pills, powders, and potions. (I legit have an entire closet dedicated to supplements.) The list below contains my tried-and-true, carefully selected supplements from a confusing and oversaturated industry.
PSA: I’m not a doctor. My goal is to help you avoid spending more money on products that will collect dust on your shelves. I’m here to offer transparency on what works for me, and hopefully, you can use it as a starting point to find what works for you. Remember that every body is different. What works great for me might not work for you, and every supplement routine should be crafted with your doctor. I have my clients get lab work with their doctor to identify gaps in their nutrient and vitamin levels. From there, we add supplements based on health goals. So check with your doc, and use my go-to supplement arsenal as a starting point on your wellness journey.

To take every day

Equilibria
Daily Softgels
Important PSA: If you have not hopped on the CBD bandwagon to improve your focus, energy, stress relief, and even anxiousness, you are seriously missing out. CBD has made a huge difference in promoting a sense of calm and stress relief without making me sluggish so I love taking these Equilibria ones to start my mornings off on the right foot.

Multivitamin
A huge problem with the supplement industry is it’s pretty unregulated, so we don’t always know how high-quality or clean the ingredients actually are. Ritual is committed to full traceability–like you can see on the website the exact farm, source, and geographical location where each nutrient comes from. Plus, it’s more absorbable because of the tiny beads within the capsule which have a delayed release in the right part of the digestive tract that absorbs the nutrients, and has more nutrients than typical multivitamins do, like omega-3 DHA.

Probiotic
Sakara is another brand that I really trust their standards of quality–I do not want any additional chemicals or toxins in my body, and if I’m spending my money, I want to make sure its something that will actually make a difference. I love these probiotics because they’re derived from totally clean, raw, plant-based ingredients and contain food cofactors to improve absorption. In addition to the targeted probiotic strains, each pill contains digestive enzymes, systemic enzymes, and prebiotic fiber to ensure the probiotic bacteria can thrive in the gut, as well as other benefits.

Pure Synergy
B-Complex
I’ve been taking a B-Complex for years as recommended by my doctor. I’m a vegetarian who eats minimal dairy, so I’m not getting a lot of B-12 from my diet, and being on the birth control pill for 10+ years has depleted my B vitamins (again, all according to my doctor!). I love this one that’s organic and made from fruits and veggies. Now that I’m transitioning off of birth control and my vitamin B levels look normal, she recommended a B-complex every other day instead of every day, and we’ll adjust based on what my lab results say in the six months–testing is everything!

Parsley Health
Vitamin D3 + K2
Did you know vitamin D is one of the most common deficiencies? Especially through the fall and winter when it’s darker out and we’re not exposed to sun very often. My doctor has said that everyone can afford taking a little vitamin D through the fall and winter months, but–as always–check your levels and talk to your doctor! I love these drops because they contain vitamin K and MCT oil for optimal absorption. I just add a few drops to my morning coffee or tea and it’s the easiest way to get in any vitamin.

Magnesium
Magnesium is another super common deficiency that I think most people could benefit from supplementing or asking their doctor about. My doctor put me on an additional dose of magnesium citrate before bed to ease constipation and then increased my dosage before and during my period to help with cramps (think of it as helping to relax the muscles). It has many other functions, like lung function, bone health, and helping to metabolize carbohydrates. There are different types of magnesium too, like Magnesium Glycate, which is more beneficial for stress relief, the nervous system, etc.

Sleep Capsules
Before Arrae came out with their Sleep capsule, I only took sleep supplements for special occasions like travel (more below) or if I couldn’t sleep. But I’m so obsessed with the Sleep capsules that I take them on a nightly basis and have the best sleep. They are not made with melatonin or like any other common sleep supplement–instead, it’s a blend of herbs (like chamomile, holy basil, and valerian root) that works with your circadian rhythm to help regulate your body’s natural sleep cycle. So it’s kind of just assisting your body to sleep better on its own, and I truly get the best sleep of my life.

To improve digestion

Metabolism Powder
I will talk about this powder until I’m blue in the face because of how it’s changed my life. I’m not typically a powder person and much prefer pills because they’re easier to remember or make time to drink a powder, but this is totally different. It tastes like a luxurious hot chocolate (just add raw honey!) and is my self-care moment every day–so tasty, it’s helped me replace my coffee habit. But because of the superfood plant-based ingredients, it has also hugely helped my digestive issues like reducing bloat and healing gut lining.

Dr. Schulze’s
Intestinal Formula Supplement
I have tried just about everything to relieve constipation–including prescription medication from my gastroenterologist–but no supplement or prescription has really helped besides this one. I only take one capsule every night after dinner and–not to brag–I have a bowel movement every single morning, which is kind of a miracle for me (#sorrynotsorry for the TMI). No, it doesn’t cause stomach aches or diarrhea for me, and it’s NOT a laxative–it contains herbs that help support your body’s natural detoxification system in the colon, like aloe leaf, ginger root, garlic, cayenne pepper, and senna leaf.

Bloat Capsules
I’ve tried a lot of digestive enzymes in my day–basically every food leaves me with painful gas, bloat, or stomach pains. These are my favorites to take after any meal because they genuinely help; I notice a major difference and I can actually eat foods I love without suffering. And–you guessed it–they’re full of good-for-you, plant ingredients from fruit and herbs like bromelain (good for speeding food breakdown), peppermint (to prevent gas), and even contains slippery elm to help protect your digestive system. If I’m eating something like broccoli that I know bothers me a little bit, I’ll just take one, but take two after a pasta and wine dinner out.

Tomorrow’s Nutrition
Prebiotic Fiber Supplement
So you already know about probiotics, but PRE-biotics are just as important because they’re a type of fiber that serves as food for the good bacteria in the gut. Without prebiotics, probiotics cannot survive. I make sure to get prebiotics from food and my probiotics contain prebiotics as well, but I add a scoop of this fiber supplement to smoothies, yogurt, or coffee every few days for additional support, or daily if I feel like my gut health is struggling, like during vacation or a stressful time. I was taking inulin powder (another easy thing to look up and add to your diet!) but my doctor had me replace it with this Sunfiber because it’s a low-FODMAP option if everything triggers your gut like it did mine.

For stress relief

Calm Capsules
If you can’t already tell, Arrae can do no wrong in my eyes–I am indeed a fan and daily user of every one of their products. I’ve struggled with anxiety for as long as I can remember, and—while there’s no quick fix for mental health—this supplement is such an important part of my mental health toolbox. Regular therapy, daily meditation, etc. help keep my anxiety at bay, but taking a Calm Capsule (with ingredients like magnesium and passionflower) is one of the few things I’ve tried that actually works when a stressful meeting is coming up, I’m getting worried while traveling, or I’m feeling extra anxious one day.

Equilibria
CBD Oil Drops
I’ve been using these CBD drops for a few years now and I think they will always be a part of my daily routine. While the Arrae Calm tablets are for occasional moments of stress, I use the Daily Drops every day for better response to stress and anxiety over time. High-quality CBD is extremely effective at helping to regulate mood and stress levels. Bonus: they can also increase focus and relieve tension.

To take when under the weather

Pique Life
Elderberry Liposomal Vitamin C Supplement
Historically, the second the weather starts changing, I would get colds that would last well through winter. Now, I know to take extra good care of my body to avoid the dreaded cold or to limit symptoms to get through the season feeling as good as possible. In the fall and winter, I take one of these packets every day (and double up when I start to feel a cold coming on) and I swear it makes a major difference. It contains clean ingredients with no preservatives, unlike other vitamin C sources and immunity packets, and contains added antioxidants, zinc, etc. for an extra boost and better absorption. Also, it’s like a gel consistency you eat straight instead of a powder you add to water, which I prefer because it’s way easier.

Beekeeper’s Naturals
Throat Spray
There’s A LOT of power in bee products, and propolis is known as one of the greatest superfoods of the world. Containing flavonoids and polyphenols that fight free radicals, as well as vitamin C, zinc, iron, B vitamins, and lots of other antioxidants, it’s incredible for fighting of colds and boosting the immune system. I even do an extra spray when I start getting a sore throat (like after a long day of podcasting when my throat gets scratchy) and it’s immediately gone.

Tension Relief Supplement
Whether it’s a hangover, tension, period-related, or just general stress, this all-natural product really works to ease headaches. The herbs used are pretty fascinating, like feverfew, which helps reduce sensitivity to headache triggers, or willowbark, that promotes head comfort. It also contains a concentrated dose of magnesium glycinate as I talked about above, that is extremely helpful to help muscles and the nervous system relax, good for both tension and stress related headaches.

To take while traveling

Greens Supplement
By now, I have talked approximately 10 friends and family members into hopping on the 8Greens bandwagon. My #1 can’t-live-without health product will always be whole, leafy greens (one of nature’s greatest medicine, IMO). I always aim to add greens to at least two meals a day because it makes the biggest difference in my skin, energy, digestion, immune system, etc. However, when traveling, I don’t always have access to fresh, leafy greens. Enter: 8Greens. Made with spinach, wheatgrass, kale, blue-green algae, spirulina, chlorella, barley grass, and aloe vera, each tablet is packed with a variety of nutrients that make you feel amazing. In the form of a convenient tablet you just add to water—it’s like a DIY green juice on-the-go. I also drink 8Greens when I need an extra boost of nutrients in addition to leafy greens, like if I’m starting to get a cold or feel extra drained.

Organic Green Tea Extract Capsules
Dr. Christian Gonzalez (you can listen to him on Heal Thy Self Podcast) talks a lot about how the polyphenols and antioxidants in green tea (particularly a highly concentrated version like matcha) can help the body better absorb and detoxify alcohol. Now I have not checked out any other studies to back this up, so do your own research and check out his explanation/recommendations for yourself, but I do take a green tea extract supplement when on vacation (AKA when I’m drinking a lot more alcohol than usual). Do I notice an immediate difference? Not really, but I like knowing I am fueling my body with additional antioxidants. Note: You can also just drink green tea or matcha!

Hydration Supplement
You know when you just feel so deeply dehydrated, either from a plane, being in the sun more than usual, drinking alcohol, or just extra depleted from a long day of travel? In order to be optimally hydrated, your body doesn’t just need water–it needs electrolytes that allow your body to hang onto and absorb the water. There are a lot of electrolyte drinks and supplements out there that are full of added sugars, dyes, and toxins, so I like to add some lime juice and a pinch of Himalayan salt for natural electrolytes in my water, but I also like these packets from Cove, which are sweetened with stevia, so they have no added sugar. You’ll feel an immediate hydration, on a deeper level than you would from chugging a glass of plain water.

Love Wellness
Sleep Supplement
Even going from the west coast to the east coast can totally knock off my sleep schedule (a three-hour time change makes a huge difference when trying to fall asleep at night!) so I like to travel with these capsules to help me fall asleep during nights when I know it will be difficult for me to sleep or I’m dealing with jet lag. They contain a small dose of melatonin, which lets the body know it’s time to sleep and release more melatonin, but also uses magnesium and herbs to relax the body and ease stress so you can fall asleep naturally too (and stay asleep!).

Please consult a doctor or health professional before beginning any supplements or treatments. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition or health goal. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read in this article.

10 Items Our Wellness Editor Swears Have Made the Biggest Difference in Her Life

This post is sponsored by Equilibria, but all of the opinions within are those of The Everygirl editorial board. More

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), infertility in women was ranked as the 5th highest and most serious global disability.
Further to that, the Infertility Awareness Association of South Africa (IFAASA) confirmed that as many as one in six couples are impacted by infertility.
Infertility occurs in both men and women with a number of risk factors such as occupational and environmental risks, age, smoking and alcohol use. Another common risk factor though for infertility in women is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).
Here’s what you need to know about PCOS and pregnancy.
What Is PCOS?
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS, is a hormonal disorder that involves reproductive, cosmetic and metabolic problems with 8 – 13% of women suffering from this condition. Due to ovarian dysfunction, it is the most common cause of infertility.
Despite the increasing numbers and people impacted by infertility, the subject of infertility is still not a topic openly disussed and carries with it an unfortunate stigma. 
That’s where Salome comes in. Salome’s ongoing awareness campaigns are linked to breaking the silence around common women’s health issues.

Symptoms OF PCOS You Should Look Out For:
A supporter of Salome, specialist obstetrician and gynaecologist, Dr Lusanda Shimange-Matsose, shared these six symptoms commonly associated with PCOS that women should be aware of. 

If you are under 35 and have been having regular unprotected intercourse for 6 – 12 months without falling pregnant
Experiencing painful periods
Having irregular or prolonged menstrual cycles
Elevated levels of the male hormone androgen which results in excess body hair 
Acne
Overweight

What You Should Do If You Have Symptoms:
The symptoms associated with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome can cause a lot of distress and the disorder affects women in so many different ways and to different degrees. That’s why it’s best not to assume that you actually have PCOS until you’ve been diagnosed by a gynaecologist. 
What Are The Long-Term Effects Of PCOS?
“It’s about time we start talking about this so more women are aware that this is a disease that is prevalent and present,” says Dr. Shimange-Matsose.
“The most important thing for me when it comes to PCOS is making women aware of the long-term effects of this condition because if you don’t get a handle on it, not only are you going to battle with infertility – you are going to develop diabetes, cardiac problems linked to hypertension and high cholesterol, as well as sleeping problems.”
“That’s why I applaud Salome’s efforts to educate women about PCOS so they can identify and manage their symptoms from early on. The most important thing is to commit to making gynae visits a way of life in order to get help sooner rather than later,” says Dr. Shimange-Matsose.

PCOS And Pregnancy: What Can You Do?
Just as there are various factors that impact fertility, there are also many different treatment options and recommendations out there, some more invasive than others.
According to 3Sixty Biomedicine’s CEO, Boitumelo Sebambo, in cases where infertility can be linked back to the hormonal imbalances caused by PCOS, patients who make use of products like Salome Fertility that contain Myo-inositol and D-Chiro-inositol, have seen an increase in their ovulation, a reduction in their hyperandrogenism and in the oxidative stress in their follicular fluid.
“We locally manufacture our Salome Fertility product – as well as other products within the Salome range. All Salome products are based on herbal extracts which have limited side effects AND are recognized by certain medical aids,” explains 3Sixty Biomedicine CEO, Boitumelo Sebambo.
The full range of Salome products are available online at 3Sixtybiomedicine.co.za, on Takealot.com or at most pharmacies nationwide.
